Hi,

We generally use modify screen structure for enabling disabling screen fields.

loop at screen

if screen-name = field1

screen-activ = 0.

endif.

modify screen

endloop.

But you need to make sure, if the badi is triggered at the right place.in the module pool of screen.

Hi,

you can create an authorization object and assign it to users whom you want the fields to be visible for.

Now in your badi, before the screen code, check teh authorization object.

If satisfied then show fields else hide.

If you have limited set of users, you can also check username and then modify accordingly.

Use (or Create) authorization [field|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/52/67168c439b11d1896f0000e8322d00/frameset.htm] and [object|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/52/6716a6439b11d1896f0000e8322d00/frameset.htm], in the BAdI [check this authorization|http://help.sap.com/abapdocu_70/en/ABAPAUTHORITY-CHECK.htm] and change the INVISIBLE field and not the ACTIVE field in SCREEN structure.

Inform system admin to manage those new object and field in the user roles. ([SAP Authorization Concept Modules|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_banking463/helpdata/en/5c/deaa74d3d411d3970a0000e82de14a/frameset.htm])

NB: The "d" of BAdI should always been in lowercase, except in statement GET BADI...

First you will have to [find a BAdI|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/advancedsearch?query=findaBAdI] that is executed during the [PBO process before output|http://help.sap.com/abapdocu_70/en/DYNPPROCESS.htm#&ABAP_ALTERNATIVE_1@1@], in this BAdI you will be able to [LOOP AT SCREEN|http://help.sap.com/abapdocu_70/en/ABAPLOOP_AT_SCREEN.htm] on displayable fields and [MODIFY|http://help.sap.com/abapdocu_70/en/ABAPMODIFY_SCREEN.htm] their attributes.

Hi,

You can create a Z table in this maintain all the user who will get authorisation to change the field.

In the BADI compare the user with the Z table and modify the screen accordingly.

Hi Pravithanambiar,

Try to figure out the badi which has the structure SFAUSWTAB.

In this structure there is one field KZINV, which is to make field invisible.

Follow the below code then,

IF sy-uname EQ 'Pravithanambiar'.

IF ( fauswtab-fname = 'MARA-MEINS' ).

fauswtab-kzinV = '0'.

ENDIF.

endif.

U can add as many user names as u want by 'and' logical condition. This above written logic is to suppress the meins field for you

and displayed for others.

If u don't have any BADI with the structure SFAUSWTAB.

Then try with this code.

IF sy-uname EQ 'Pravithanambiar'.

loop at screen.

IF ( screen-name = 'MARA-MEINS' ).

screen-invisible = 1'.

ENDIF.

endloop.

endif.

The above two can solve ur problem but the second method is trail and error one. Try with each and every method of all badi.

Best wishes,
