User Authorization to a specific transaction

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I want to check programmatically whether a specific user has authorization to a specific transaction. The statement AUTHORITY-CHECK OBJECT 'S_TCODE' works only for the current user.

Is there any function module where i can pass the User name and transaction and check whether the user have access to the transaction ?

Thanks in advance

Hi,

you can use the additional

... FOR USER user

option with

AUTHORITY-CHECK OBJECT

hi,

UST04 table can used to get the list of users for specific authorization.

The program checks whether an authorization object is assigned to the transaction code. If this is the case, the program checks whether the user has an authorization for this authorization object. The transaction code/authorization object assignment is stored in table TSTCA.

The system performs authorization checks in the ABAP program using the ABAP statement AUTHORITY-CHECK.

Call 'AUTHORITY_CHECK'

EXPORTING

USER = <USER>

OBJECT = 'S_TCODE'

FIELD1 = 'TCD'

VALUE1 = <TRANSACTION CODE>

IMPORTING

SY-SUBRC = <VAL>.

Hi,

try this short report:

SELECT * FROM USR01.
*
  CALL FUNCTION 'AUTHORITY_CHECK'
    EXPORTING
      USER                = USR01-BNAME
      OBJECT              = 'S_TCODE'
      FIELD1              = 'TCD'
      VALUE1              = 'FB01'
    EXCEPTIONS
      USER_DONT_EXIST     = 1
      USER_IS_AUTHORIZED  = 2
      USER_NOT_AUTHORIZED = 3
      USER_IS_LOCKED      = 4
      OTHERS              = 5.
*
  WRITE: / USR01-BNAME.
*
  CASE SY-SUBRC.
    WHEN 2.      WRITE: 'USER_IS_AUTHORIZED'.
    WHEN 3.      WRITE: 'USER_NOT_AUTHORIZED'.
    WHEN OTHERS. WRITE: 'ERROR', SY-SUBRC.
  ENDCASE.
*
ENDSELECT.
