Restrict users based on Customers

Hi ,
In ECC system, we have general requirements to restrict users based on customer account group where customer account group is represented as Site/Store.
Possible values for Customer Account group -
- Reference Store
- Head Store
- Wholly Owner Store etc.
Till this point everything is fine. However, Client has few additional External Stores which are represented as one Dummy Site and Customers belonging to that store are actual external Stores.
Example, we have additional Value for Customer Account Group -
- Dummy Site
And now all the Customers part of dummy site is actual stores and we are needed to drill down our restriction to this Customer (So called Stores).
To restrict used based on customer account group/Stores, we can utilize F_KNA1_GRP with filed KTOKD (Customer Account Group). However, is it possible to create roles based on individual customers of these Stores?
If yes, how can we do that?
P.S. I had a look at authorization object F_KNA1_BED with filed BRGRU. Can this object help us in fulfilling our requirement? Or there is any other SAP provided authorization object which can help us to restrict on Customer values?
Thanks,
Sheenam

You could use F_KNA1_BED, I guess - but that would mean excessive maintenance of both: BEGRU and customers, if I understood your scenario correctly and you really, really want to break that down to single customers.
It would be even more excessive to utilize F_KNA1_GRP. Can be done, though.
Both solutions are completely un-elegant and I am not happy proposing them. But I am curious as a cat: what exactly is the business process expecting you to restrict access to customer data down to a single customer?

FD32 restrict users based on a schedule of authority

All,
I have a requirement within FD32 to restrict users based on a schedule of authority. For example, only allowing credit limits to be changed in a user's authorized dollar range. I was able to restrict the Credit Limit field (change/display) by using field groups, but I have an extension of the requirement for a schedule of authority. Can someone please help?

Is it possible to restrict user based on personal information workset ?

Hi Experts,
I have a requirement in which I need to allow other worksets in ESS to be accessed only if one workset "Personal Information" is completed.
In this workset "Personal Information", there is an iView "Certify Own Data". In this ivew there are couple of checkboxes which need to be ticked and saved. this checkboxes will automatically be checked when the user enters required data in other related ivews such as "Address", "Family Details", "communications" etc.
All I want to achieve is to allow the user only if he fills all his personal information and certify's his own data. After clicking on SAVE button only he would be able to access other worksets such as "Attendence".
Please someone suggest me how to achive this functionality. Do i need to develop new application or i can achieve this functionality by just maintaining some kind of iview validation.
Earlier response would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Uday

you can do a badi validation
BADI HRPAD00INFTYBL and HRPAD00INFTYDB for new framework of infotype.
Please refer the SAP Note 864910 BADI HRPAD00INFTYBL and HRPAD00INFTYDB
But to control the workset would be difficult in standard, probably you can do a modification
you can control services using proxy classes though

How to Restrict users to change password

Hi All,
I would like to restrict user to change password only defined number of times in a day, Is it possible to do it through group policies.
Please note i am already aware of "Minimum Password age" feature, however i do not want to use it as the minimum value that i can set here is 1 day. I would like to restrict users based on password reset threshold e.g. User can reset his password
in a day only twice or thrice.
Thanx & Regards,
Wasim Parkar

If you want to limit the user to have his/her password changed for a specific number of time every day, I have to say
NO thats not possible. PSO's as other mentioned,can be used to have different password policies. Maybe you can set the msDS-MinimumPasswordAge
to 00:04:00:00 which is equal to 4 hours. It means every 4 hours a user will be able to change his/her password. So in each day a user can change the password 6 times, since a day is 24 hours.
Do not forget a day start from 00:00 AM up to 11:59 PM. So in a 9 to 5 job, a user may change the password 2-3 times.
Hope it helps.

Retrieving ALL values from a single restricted user property

How can I retrieve ALL values of a single restricted user property from within
a .jpf file?
I want to display a dropdown list within a form in a JSP which should contain
all the locations listed in the property 'locations'. I ever get just the default
value when I access the property via
ProfileWrapper pw = userprofile.getProfileForUser(user);
Object prop = pw.getProperty("ClockSetup", "Locations");

Well, the code you've got will retrieve the single value of the property
for the current user. You're getting the default value because the
current user doesn't have Locations property set, so the ProfileWrapper
returns the default value from the property set.
I assume you want to get the list of available values that you entered
into the .usr file in Workshop. If so, I've attached a
SetColorController.jpf, index.jsp, and GeneralInfo.usr (put in
META-INF/data/userprofiles) I wrote for an example that does just this.
It uses the PropertySetManagerControl to retrieve the restricted values
for a property, and the jsp uses data-binding to create a list from that
pageflow method.
For a just-jsps solution, you can also use the
<ps:getRestrictedPropertyValues/> tag. I've attached a setcolor-tags.jsp
that does the same thing.

User based authorization to create Purchase Orders out of Purchase Req.?

Hello,
I have the following requiment for my client:
User based authorization to create Purchase Orders out of Purchase Req.?
I am told the same can be achieved using same standard menu path in IMG/Customizing.
Please advise with the menu path and detials, Usefull answers will be rewarded.
Thanks

Using OMET Function Authorization, you can restrict users to create Purchase orders without Purchase Reqn.
Using OMET trxn code Create one Function Authorixation Called pr and in General Parameters tab Select the Field Selection and in Possible reference Objects Tab Mark the With ref to Prs check box and save.
Next, you've got to associate via SU01
Click Parameters, insert a new parameter id EFB to the authorization code.
Type in Parameters value you want e.g. XX
You have to assign the control for ALL the SAP buyers via thier SAP users id.
Logoff and login again. Then try to create a Purchase Order without a reference.
From Next time whenever you try to create with out referring PR it will not allow you to Save PO.

Restricting User from creating new records using when-validate-record

Hi,
I have a requirement for which I have to restrict he user from creating a record in the Supplier Master form if the suppliier type is 'Affiliate Supplier'.
I have done the following setups
Seq 10
Description Restricting user from creating Affiliate records
Level Function
Enabled Yes
Condition:
Trigger Event WHEN-VALIDATE-RECORD
Trigger object VNDR
Condition "${item.VNDR.VENDOR_TYPE_DISP_MIR.value} is NOT NULL
and
${item.VNDR.VENDOR_TYPE_DISP_MIR.value} LIKE 'Affiliate%'
Processing Mode BOTH
Context
Level User

Language ALL
Message Type Show
Message Text You Cannot Create Affiliate records Here
Action Sequence 2
Type Builtin
Action Description Stop Proceesing
Language ALL
Action Enabled Yes
Builtin Type RAISE FORM_TRIGGER_FAILURE;
This is working good on one instance but when I moved it to another instance
when I query the form and try to navigate to the bank accounts tab of the form which is based on a differnt block i.e VNDR_USES block, the when-validate-record trigger fires there also and stops the processing.
Any suggestions on this would be higly appriciated.
Thanks in Advance.

Hi Srini,
Yes, it does work...but in a Form Session if i Create more then one Item, in some cases it fires for the first records and not sleeps for the second.
Sometimes it doesn't give any response.
Appreciated if you divert to the link to check the Pacthes for 11.5.10 on Form Personalization.
Please share any ideas/example if yiou have to achieve the below requirement.
Requirement:
Once New record is created , a Custom Procedure should be invoked.
with out closing Form i am able to create n number of Items, so for every Item it should invoke Custom PLSQL Code on Save.
Let me know if i can achieve the same in Custom.pll .....as i can use either of Options.(Form Personalization/Custom.pll)
Thanks & regards,

DUN Bluetooth connection to PocketPC, Vista and restricted user rights

Hallo,
I've successfully established a DUN connection to my Pocket WM5-based QTEK 9100 smartphone via Bluetooth and the Toshiba Stack, latest version. My notebook is a X200-21D with Vista Home Premium.
Everything works well as far as I don't change the Vista user to an user with restricted rights, for the user with Administrator rights the Bluetooth Utility created a new DUN connection and a new modem with a virtual COM port. The user with the restricted rights isn't allowed to setup a new connection but this is necessary to connect to the smartphone with the Bluetooth Utility. On the administrative account the radio button to allow the connection to be dialed from other users is disabled and greyed out, so there is now way to open it for other users.
How can I setup an Bluetooth DUN connection for a user with restricted rights ?
Thank you in advance !

Should the Restricted user use the same DUN configuration like the Admin ?
If so, then you can use "Bluetooth Settings-> Custom Mode". This allows you to
select the "33600 Standard Modem" from the list which was configured before by
the Admin. So every DUN which was configured by the Admin can be used by the
Restricted user with this method. Restricted users can not install hardware, so
if the Admin has not installed a modem, then also the Restricted user can not use it.
The Admin can pre-install a modem with the Bluetooth stack installation.
This is useful if the restricted user should be able to configure a DUN connections
with advanced modem settings which are not used by the Admin.
This should be possible if the "as.ini" file has a line "MODEMINST = 1"

User based authorization

I have a question about role based authorization. Guess we have 100 transactions and 100 users. I know we have to create a new role for a new combination of transaction list. Ex: 1,2,3,4,14,15 is RoleA and 1,4,25,34 for RoleB and so on. What will it be If we have a really mixed authorization combination. Guess 15 users use A Role and 20 B Role. But we have a three new user. They mustn't use only two transaction in A Role. Now we came subject of my question. I don't want to create a new role for these users. Is it possible to restrict authorization? As if in same role but restricted to use these transactions. (without abap coding) In a clear expression user based transaction authorization, not role based.

Hi,
in my opinion that isn't possible without coding.
Sorry ;-(

Bernd

Restricting User-Defined Layout in CV04N

Hi All
A user having cv04n authorization can change the layout and save as User-Specific Layout. We may be giving various information via CHARS / Values and users add those to layouts and see
Now a User who do not have Authorization to a Document type , say FIN (for Finance) , can get the details in the CHARS and Values of FIN Document Type using cv04n, by modifying the standard layout.
Any Authorization to control user not to change layouts in cv04n...?
I have found one Authorization S_ALV_LAYO which restricts to make Global layout, but it allows to make User Defined layouts..
Any solutions to restrict User not to modify default layout in cv04n?? Or in way can we restrict User not to add CHAR s into search layouts?
Regards
Aby

Hi Aby,
We can restrict the user from viewing the documents based on document type and authorization group. This can be achieved by implementing BADI "DOCUMENT_SEARCH01" and interface "CHANGE_SEARCH_ORDER". Inside this we can do an authority check on each document (DOKAR), using standard authorization object for document type C_DRAW_TCD. And similarly authorization group (BEGRU) can be checked using auth obj C_DRAW_BGR can be checked.
The authority check can be done in following way,
LOOP AT EACH DOC.
    AUTHORITY-CHECK OBJECT 'C_DRAW_TCD'
         ID 'DOKAR' FIELD LV_DOKAR                              " LV_DOKAR is doc no.
         ID 'ACTVT' FIELD '03'.                                           " 03 is display mode
Similarly check for auth grp.
Hope this will help you. If you need any more inputs let me know.

Restrict printers based on security groups

We have set up all of our printers on a server and deployed them via group policy. I am looking for a way to restrict printing based on which security group the user is in. We have got it working by setting permissions in the printer security tab
in the server. But I would like a more elegant solution, since the printers that the user can't print to are greyed out with an X over the icon. I would like to have the printer not even show up in the printer list if that user isn't allowed to
print there.
Is this possible?
We are running Windows Server 2008 R2 and our clients are all Windows 7.
Thank you.

Hi,
Based on your description, we can use Security Filtering to apply the printer deployment GPO polices to the specific groups.
Regarding this point, the following articles can be referred to for more information.

Besides, we can choose to deploy printers via GPP and use Item-level Targeting to filter out users who don’t need the printers.
Regarding this point, the following blog can be referred to for more information.
