Use of Partner Function in WBS authorization

[Former Member]

Hi all,

Considering the following scenario:

" I have a few users, User A, B and C who are all authorized users to the various project system functionalities. However, I would like to set up authorization in such a manner that each project/ WBS elements can only be changed/ viewed by its creator and users nominated via partner functions.

For example, if user A creates a project,, users B and C will not be able to access the project unless user A enters one of their IDs under one of the partner functions."

Is the above scenario, or anything similar, possible under standard customizing/ authorization settings?

Many thanks for the help.

Cheers,

Daniel

The steps are as below:

Project system->Structure-> Operative Structure-> WBS-> Define Partner Determination Procedure and Roles->

Slect "Define Partner Determination Procedures and Partner Roles"

Choose the partner function and click "Partner functions in Procedure".

(Txn:OPSPAR3)

Here you can make the desired partner function mandatory.

Please refere this post. mostly will stisfy your req.

Regards

Once I have set up the partner functions, are there any additional steps required for the target authorization behavior to be established?

Yes, it is requiered to apply the OSS note OSS 638781.

With this note, you'll be set authorization for each partner function.  The note 638781 provide the following Tcode "ZWPS_AUTH_1" in order to define authorization for the partner function.
