Restrict access to bid invitation cFolder documents

[Former Member]

SRM Experts,

I have a requirement to restrict access to bid invitation cFolder documents.

Here is the scenario:

Buyer1 creates a bid invitation and a cFolder. We do not want any other buyers within our organization to access this bid invitation cFolder.

How can this be achived?

At this time, if a buyer (ex: Buyer2) has access to create a bid invitation or view a bid invitation, the system is automatically gives Buyer2 access to cFolder created by Buyer1.

This needs to be restricted, any advice would be appreciated.

Note: BADI BAdI BBP_CFOLDER_BADI is already deactivated in the system

Please let me know if you have any ideas.

Thanks

Hi,

You can restrict the access through Product categories in the PPOMA_BBP for each user .

So that he can create Bid invitation only to that product category..

please check this link

you can find the customization guide for Cfolders on

https://websmp202.sap-ag.de/~form/sapnet?_FRAME=CONTAINER&_OBJECT=011000358700007402242002E

Please check with SAP PLM consultant . You can controlled through Authorisation role

This is the role used :User

- Role name: SAP_CFX_USER

Better check with the above link

Ganesh,

Could you please elaborate how to control the cfolder authorization, such that while creating the bid invitation the bidders private area collaboration are automatically created and bidders are not able to see / access each others private work area?

Hi,

Please check the above link what i have given.

Please check this with your SAP PLM consultant ,, he can give more inputs there is authorisation matrix in the

link what I have given, the authorisation can be controlled .There is a integration setting between PLM and SRM

The following roles are shipped with cFolders:

u2022 User

- Role name: SAP_CFX_USER

- Provides authorization to run cFolders in the Internet browser

- Assigned automatically to all users created in the cFolders application

u2022 Administrator

- Role name: SAP_CFX_ADMINISTRATOR

- Provides authorization to administer the cFolders application, plus the

authorizations of SAP_CFX_USER

- Must be assigned to the user who is to be the first to access cFolders
