Plant missing in Auth object

[Former Member]

Dear All,

We have created a new plant and transported to Quality Client. Also we have tested the newly created plant in MM01 & other transactions.

When maintaining authoriazations in role,we have taken drop down (F4) in WERKS field of M_MATE_WRK auth obj., but the required, newly created plant is not showing in the same box.

Kindly advise.

Can you please check in organization value tab 1st of all rather than checking in object directly. Please ensure that the query do not have any filter by default. Also chek in table T001W if entry for new plant has been created or not

We have checked the mentioned table & found the plant details. Even we have checked Org. Structure, all assignment done. Please suggest

Hi Souman,

if you created plant then you may not have assigned that plant in SPRO

SPRO --> Enterprize Stracture --> Logistics - General --> Assing Plant to Company Code

after assigned plant you can get in role.

if you give * against WERKS in authorization object then you did not face plant issue.

Hi, a few questions:

1. Does this plant appear in the F4 lookup in functional transactions?

2. Have you processed end-to-end functions using this plant?

3. Why are you trying to maintain the plant in the auth object, this should only be maintained in the org-level popup

4. What problem will it cause if you cannot find it in the drop down?

Hi Alex,

Please find response against your query:-

1. Yes, I have checked in MB52, MB51, MMBE or MM01 etc and found the plant is appearing.

2. Yes, I have done P2P & OTC cycle for this plant using my ID.

3. We asked our client's end user to check the plant in Quality client, so he required authorization for this plant. When BASIS tried to maiantain authorization for this plant, he told plant is missing in his F4 list.

4. BASIS person told he not able to provide authorization for this particular plant due to missing entry. He refuse to maintain "*" for this object.

Hi Soumen,

Thanks for the information.

I don't know what is happening to cause this. It sounds like the config is OK which is the main thing.

You do have a problem with your Basis person. They obviously do not have security skills or training as 1. They should not be maintaining the value against the authorisation object. 2. There is absolutely no requirement for a value to appear in the F4 list for it to be able to be maintained in that situation. This is the main issue as there is nothing technically stopping the access to this specific plant being granted.

Hopefully someone will be able to shed more light on why the value is not appearing in the F4 lookup.

Good luck

Hi,

You have stated that you/security went to authorization object and tried to find the plant value:

As "ALEX " mentioned that is not the place to enter the plant value, you have to go to the organizatinal level tab via tcode PFCG

can you check the output from the tables AGR_1252 or AGR_1251 for the object in scope

Hi,

Is the value is not appearing in the F4 lookup in both Development as well as Qaulity system?

Check in the F4 screen "Insert Personal list" icon is enabled or "Delete from Personal list icon" If the Delete from Personal list icon and Display all values is enabled Please delete the showing plants from your personal list.

Instead of selecting from the F4 you can also input the value direcly.
