Authorization access to characteristics in ECR/ECO

[Former Member]

Hello all,

We are implementing ECR/ECO and we are using characteristics to capture some of the features in characteristics. But we do not want to give access to every one to make changes to these characteristics. Is there a way we can control access to characteristics using authorizations?

Thanks

Hi,

You must define your own function module for displaying possible entries for the characteristic values. You create this function module in addition to the function module for checking values. The name of this function module is made up of the name of the function module for checking values, followed by '_F4'. In this function module, you specify the allowed values, so that you can display them

Let me know if you still have problem.

Hi

Interesting to hear that characteristics are used in ECR/ECO process. if possible, you may explain the process bit in more detail for knowledge.

coming to authorizations, either t-code (CT04) level you can have (or) you may try to restrict authorizations by grouping them in separate customized classes..

First, I suggest you to check what are the various authorization objects which can be filtred for authorizations to user and then based on that please take a call.. how to proceed further..

Thanks
