Purchasing users only allow to maintain costing data engring team only allow time data for same table

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I have requirement.

We now have a requirement from the business teams (purchasing and engineering) to ensure both teams are assigned separate authorization roles/objects to make sure purchasing team users are only allowed to maintain cost data and engineering team should be allowed to maintain only time data in these tables. tables remain same for both Purchasing and engineering team. Is this possible. Please advise.

Thanks

How are they accessing the data? Transaction (which ones?), direct table maintenance etc.

Your answer to the above will guide any recommendations.

Sarvana,

If it is direct table maintenance , I prefer to go for custom tcode set up which can be used to modify the data of the table.

Using transaction variant (SHD0) , You can build a two separate views for the same table(tcode) and assign respective variant to each business team. Need to check with your ABAP team

If no direct table maintenance , share the tcode details(standard/custom) , table(standard/custom).

Hi Krishna,

They are using custom tcode and updating these tables.

Check with your ABAP team about the screen/transaction variant and try to make two different views for same tcode.

Tcode with Screen variant 1 - allow to  update costing data only

Tcode with Screen variant 2 - allow to update time data  only

try these option.
