Hello,

You can use Authorization Group to restrict the users for processing the different activities..

You just create an authorization group according to your requirements and assign it to

the roles of different users.

In The Business partner maintain field BUT000-AUGRP -> Authorization Group

You can use authorization groups to stipulate which business partners a

user is allowed to process.

Note

Use the following authorization object:

'Business partners: authorization groups' (B_BUPA_GRP).

In the Contract account maintain field FKKVKP-BEGRU -> Authorization Group

The authorization group enables you protect access to certain objects.

In order to carry out a specific activity, the user must have authorization for the combination of the activity and the authorization group.

Furthermore there are some Business Add-In's (BAdI's) that might be helpful:

BUPA_AUGRP - BUPA_FURTHER_CHECKS - BUPA_F4_AUGRP.

The whole list of authorization objects and BAdI's you can see by starting transaction SE80 with package 'BUPA' on the left side.

I hope this helps.

Regards

Olivia
