Limit Access to Seconday Company

[Former Member]

We're taking on a new company and we want them to use our same PRD system however we don't want them to access any of our data. What's the best way to accomplish this? If the new company has a separate company code, can I assign that company code to each role I create and have that do the trick? I know I can use Company Code for some modules, but I'm not sure what I need to do for our other modules (for example I think I need to use plant for our MM?). We use PP, FI, CO, SD, MM, WM, and AM, what do I need to set for each module? Also what about some of our custom reports like our daily sales report. It seems an user can access our custom sales report even though I didn't give them access to the t-code. Would our ABAPer need to do this on their level? Thanks for any advice you can offer!

Hi Orrin,

You can do restirct the access based on Company codes.Also look at operating concerns, controlling area too .

Hi,

Can you elaborate on the what data you want to avoid access to?

As some of these are not controlled always by Org level fields like company codes.

Perhaps you might need to get the details of the Organizational Heirarchy.

( like company code, plants, storage locations, controlling area, purchasing orgs etc for different views like financial, controlling, MM, SD etc) based on this u can look into the option of controlling and make necessary roles to suit the scenario.

But a mere creation of a separate company code might not solve the problem.

Hope this helps
