How can the user authorization "Display , not Edit" be fixed?

[Former Member]

Hi,

I need to give users the authorization to "DISPLAY" a transaction (e.g. VKM1). They are not allowed to "EDIT" or "RELEASE DOCUMENTS".

How can I do that?

Thank you for your feedback.

Kind regards,

for every transaction code there will be objects which is linked to the transactions code.

For ex:- For VKM1 Transaction code there are two objects (V_KNKK_FRE, V_VBUK_FRE) with activity 03(display) and 23(maintain). So, give the authorisation activity 03 to the transaction. So, users can able to see the data but not having the authorisation to release or maintain.

This is possible through Roles & Authorization, which can be set by Basis Consultant.

You may also require to find an user exit, which can handle the requirement & get the coding done from Abaper to have such control based on User ID.
