Restrict documents from being assigned to a BOM while status is not release

[solomon_edwin]

Hi,

I need certain documents to be restricted while they are still 'In preparation' status.

Currently eventhough the status is not released, user can assign a document to a BOM.

I am sure i am missing something. Let me know if anyone has done this. We are not using ECM at this stage.

Regards,

Edi

Hi,

You can do this via workaround of authorization matrix.

1. Create two users: Creator, Approver & Assigner

2. Creator will not have authorization to release the document as well as to assign the document to BOM. Authorization to release the document can be prevented by authorization object C_DRAW_STA. The authorization of object linkage is controlled by object C_DRAD_OBJ

3. Approver will have authorization to release the document.

4. finally assigner will have only document to access the change document when it is released and only then he/she will be able to assign the object linkage.

Or you can go for BASi/User exit at the time of save to control the same.

Thanks

Thank you, I was going the same path as outlined above. I would have thought that there would be some restriction based directly on status rather than via authorization objects.

Thank you.
