Authorization Maintenance of Material Descriptions in MM02

Former Member
0 Kudos

Hello,

in a ECC 6.0 system we got the following authorization request:

user should be only allowed to change the material descriptions in a certain language. The user should not be able to change other views like basic data, classification, sales texts and so on.

One solution is to solve this problem organizationally. But this is not desired.

The problem concerns especially the field for the material descriptions MAKT-MAKTX.

Is there a modification possibility or a user exit to allow only maintenance of following path: MM02 - material - additional data - descriptions - language - material descriptions?

Thanks in advance for help,

Regards,

Julia

Hi,

I don't think it can be achieved by using standard transaction. There is BAPI for material maintenance. So you can build your own simple custom transaction that will allow user to change only text description and it will also perform additional authorization checks.

Cheers
