cFolder authorization issues

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I am facing issues with cFolders.This is an urgent requirement, please help me resolve the issues.Following are the requirement and the solution which I have tried.

Requirement:

-

---

A user (who is neither a buyer/purchaser nor a vendor) has to be priovided authorization to view but not edit any public/private folders.

Solution :

-

---

In SE37 I tried testing the Function modules CFX_ACO_API_ACTIVITIES_SET and RESET.

Testing was done using:

1. From transaction BBP_PD using BUS220 and the Bid

invitation number I retrieved the GUID of the collaboration

link.

2. Then I retrieved Public Area Id(also tried with COL_ID in

the function module) from CFX_COL table using COL_ID

= GUID(as mentioned above).

3. RFC destination created for cFolders

4. Appended the values for the table I_USER_ACTIVITIES

by giving the user id and 'no_auth'/read/write(tried all the

three authority options one by one).

There was no error message but it did not succeed in changing the authorization.

Thanks,

Swar.

Hi,

You need to use the FM "'CFX_ACO_API_ACTIVITIES_SET' to set new authorizations for the user.

But before this FM ,you need to find the correct folder ID..For this use the FM's 'CFX_API_FOLDER_GETSTRUCTURE' /'CFX_API_AREA_GETDETAIL' /'CFX_API_COL_GETDETAIL' .

BR,
