IS-Retail :- Hard-coded MM03 call in ME23N when viewing Article

[Former Member]

Hi Gurus

I was wondering if anyone else has experienced the following scenario in SAP Retail.

In a SAP for Retail system, I was having Users getting Authorization Errors for MM03.

Within ME23N when opening an Article, it was calling MM03, then being pushed straight to MM43 (being a retail SAP system).

The business does not want users accessing MM03.

After some investigation with an ABAPer, it was discovered that MM03 was hardcoded in Function Module MMPUR_MATERIAL_DISPLAY.

Being a retail system it would then push to MM43.

But the whole process would fail as there was no Access to MM03.

The only solution I have to solve this was to grant Users access to MM03. (Which in the end I don't think is a major issue or is it?)

Does anyone know if this is fixed in subsequent releases of SAP for Retail?

Currently I am on Release 700, Support Package SAPKA70012.

Or have a solution for this?

Thanks

Hi Malcolm,

The TCDCOUPLES shows 'check indicator'= X for ME23N calling MM03, which means a S_TCODE check for MM03. Ideally changing that value to 'N' via tcode SE97 should suppress the S_TCODE check for MM03. Did you try that?

Thanks

Hi,

I would also suggest to raise a message with SAP. They should fix this. A quick fix that keeps authorization check is using enhancement framework to redefine FM to call ME43. Your ABAPer should be able to help you with this. It's not a long FM so it won't be a big problem.

Cheers
