Use transaction SHD0 to create a variant for MB21. In this variant, hide the field G/L account. Assign this variant to a transaction, say ZMB21, in SE93 and give the users authorization only to this transaction.

This should solve your issue.

hey Manosji thanks for the reply i tried foe mb21 but i want grey out the second screen after we 1st screen in mb21... how can i do that

[Former Member]

You can grey out the field in the second screen. When recording in SHD0, you get to see all the screens and fields in the transaction.

Did you try creating the variant? Did it not reach the second screen?

[Former Member]

[Former Member]

Press the green tick, it'll go to the next screen in the sequence

[Former Member]

SE93: Put the new tcode name and say create

Put some short text. Select variant transaction.

Choose your variant in the next screen and save:

hey manosij... its shows a variant doesnt exist

[Former Member]

Transaction on the second screen needs to be MB21, the original transaction

[Former Member]

hey mansij... providing u the screenshot of the same ... hope is fine now... can u provide me the next steps

[Former Member]

Save it. You will be prompted for a package. If you know the package to save it, else get in touch with BASIS person.

Once saved, ask BASIS to create a role with the Z transaction and assign it to the users. Also, remove MB51 in this role.

[Former Member]

hey Manosij... its issue is solved just want to know how can many user be assigned a transaction variant together?

[Former Member]

You have assigned it to a Z transaction right?

Create a role using PFCG, S_TCODE = name of Z transaction.

You can assign this role to as many people as you want

[Former Member]

i have created a variant and assigned to only 1 user id which i want to assign to many userid... and in pfcg... i want to know where i have i assign transaction variant.. the variant is created successfully as shown in the screenshot

[Former Member]

hey manosij... i tried the same stuff in production ... it get stuck on movement type... its mandatory field sooo its goes on movement type then.. i created the same in development.. it did... can u help me

[Former Member]

Why are you creating everything in production again?

You can transport this from development.

Anyways, where do you get stuck..in creating the variant? movement type is mandatory so fill something in during recording the variant, and leave the field editable in the variant

[Former Member]

i did the things in development but it didnt ask me for spool request soo creating again in prod.... i am stuck on this screen and where to make movement type field editable?

[Former Member]

It is called a transport request.
