Our developers are getting an error when adding an authorization group to table FMGLFLEXA. Adding auth group to tables is routine for them. The auth group will be added in S_TABU_DIS on the role to comply with audit. SE16->TDDAT does not show FMGLFLEXA which is a little bit odd.
Error:
u201CYou have attempted to create an entry and have used a key which is not in your namespace. This can cause problems in later upgrades because the entry could be overwritten by an import, or overwrite an existing entry.u201D
Question: Anybody successfully assigned an authorization group to table FMGLFLEXA without problems?
Thanks,

Hi,
I think that it is just standard SAP message about modifying object from SAP name space. You want to modify table FMGLFLEXA and as you know all modifications on SAP objects have to be handled separately during upgrade.

You can only maintain or assign your own Auth. group to Table which belongs to the Delivery Class E or G. Also the Table need to be assigned to a Transportable package. You can check whether the table FMGLFLEXA belongs to any of delv. class E or G in tcode SE11. Failing to match any of the these criteria will not allow you to maintain, change or assign the Auth. group to the Table.
Check out the details of the table in the table TRSEC and also check the documentation of the report RDDKOR54.
For these type of tables you need to protect them in other ways.

Dipanjan,
Table FMGLFLEXA is delivery class A.

How do I protect this type of table?

1. Please work with the Developer team if it is possible to create a Custom view for this of with Delivery class E or G. Then Deactivate the Table change option in SE11 for the original table. Assign the new table/view to the desired Auth. Group in SE54.
2. Protect the table change access to users by using proper Authorization concept (role, object etc.)
you need to protect the table by combining both the points as dual control mechanism.

By Default SAP would have grouped FMGFLEXA report to an authorisation group.
Could you please confirm whether you would need to remove this table from that group and re group it with another standard authorisation group or without removing from original authorisation group, you want to re group with the another authorisation group

Arunachalam,
Unfortunately this table does not have an authorization group by default, it is blank and there lies the problem.

We will assign the auth group to the table with the warnings. We will just make sure to check the table to auth group settings during each service pack upgrades.
Thanks everyone.
