grey field for project definition and WBS element

[Former Member]

Dear all,

I have created a project and WBS element in CJ01. Now I go via CJ02 to the change mode and the project ID and WBS element ID is not greyed out. But I would like that the system shows these key fields as not changeable anymore, only fields like description should be changable. Can you please tell me, which customizing step I missed to get the grey field for project ID/WBS element ID?

FYI I do not use a project mask to create the project.

Thanks for your answer.

u have to create a user status which disallow this transaction.

1) create a user status profile wirth the user status, ex: "GRY" - gryout WBS & proj Definition code.

2)Provide the objects relevant for this status

3)go the transaction control and check the respective transaction

4) Assign the status profile to the project profile, if its a new project

5) if its a old project assign the status profiel for each object.

Hi Murali,

I have created the user status and created a new project with the info user status (GREY). But where do I define now, that the field project ID and WBS element is not modifiable? - With a validation rule on the user status?

As object I assigned project and WBS element.

Can you provide me more info?

Thanks a lot.

Hi,

I found the business control for changing the WBS element ID, but not for the project ID itself. Anybody knows it for project ID???

for the status profile provide the Project Definition as the object for which the busniess transaction what u want will get activated.

Hi Heidi ,

I don't think you can grey out the Project Definition and the WBS Element fields after the creation .

If you want to restrict the users to change the Proj definition and WBS , a better way is through

Authorization objects and restricting only specified users to change the WBS
