Authorization check using FM /SAPAPO/MCP_PERMISSION_CHECK2
Hi All,
I have to perform the Authorization check using FM /SAPAPO/MCP_PERMISSION_CHECK2 based on 2 characteristics.
What will be the inputs to the FM. Please tell with an example as in SE37 it is giving permission check parameter as 'X' even if I dont enter any value in the input
Win full points for the answer.
Best Regards,
Chandan Dubey
Hi Chandan,
If you go through the function module the export parameter e_permission is marked as 'X' in the first line i.e before processing the code. Then it loops at table T_BOBJECTS ( need to pass the Name of Authorization Object). So if u don't have the authorization, then parameter e_permission is modified as space (Which means u don't have the authority). So when u test the function make sure that u pass the corresponding Authorization Object. If you execute just without passing any parameter u always get 'X' for the parameter e_permission. Let me know if you have further queries.
<u>Test Data :</u>
Fill the T_BOBJECTS (I think in your case it's 'C_APO_IOBJ'..... just make sure of it),
i_actvt ,
01 Create or Generate
02 Change
03 Display
06 Delete
16 Execute

PR Authorization Check using field EBAN-BEDNR
Is it possible to restrict PR authorization by "Requirement Tracking number" (EBAN-BEDNR)?
We now use this field to identify the request department, and we would like to restrict PR display by department,
ie. I can only query PRs which belong to our department.
Is this possiible? I know that in standard function you can use Document type to seperate authorization, but we have 30 departments, it's not possible to use document type to achieve my requirement.....
So, I was wondering if I can create a Z authorization object and without coding to check authorization?
Please advise, thanks a lot.Hi,
It's possibile though user exist to control the department wise, please consult your ABAP -
Hi ,
i new to authorization so i need help ,
i go to transaction SU21 and i choose some object for example:
Object R_CPM_BSC
Text Authorization Object SEM: BSC Elements
Class SEM Strategic Enterprise Management*
Author STASTNY
Field name Heading
SEMSCARD Scorecard
SEMOBJTYPE Scorecard Elements: Object Type
SEMOBJKEY Scorecard Elements: Object Key
ACTVT Activity
And when i push on permitted activities i get:
R_CPM_BSC Authorization Object SE
ACTVT Activity
activists
01 Create or generate
02 Change
03 Display
04 Print, edit messages
1. i have always just permitted activities for ACTVT ?
if i wont that user just have display Authorization how i have to write it like below?
AUTHORITY-CHECK OBJECT R_CPM_BSC
ID ACTVT FIELD '03'
thats it i don't use the other fields?
RegardsHi,
In general different users will be given different authorizations based on their role in the orgn.
We create ROLES and assign the Authorization and TCODES for that role, so only that user can have access to those T Codes.
USe SUIM and SU21 T codes for this.
Much of the data in an R/3 system has to be protected so that unauthorized users cannot access it. Therefore the appropriate authorization is required before a user can carry out certain actions in the system. When you log on to the R/3 system, the system checks in the user master record to see which transactions you are authorized to use. An authorization check is implemented for every sensitive transaction.
If you wish to protect a transaction that you have programmed yourself, then you must implement an authorization check.
This means you have to allocate an authorization object in the definition of the transaction.
For example:
program an AUTHORITY-CHECK.
AUTHORITY-CHECK OBJECT <authorization object>
ID <authority field 1> FIELD <field value 1>.
ID <authority field 2> FIELD <field value 2>.
ID <authority-field n> FIELD <field value n>.
The OBJECT parameter specifies the authorization object.
The ID parameter specifies an authorization field (in the authorization object).
The FIELD parameter specifies a value for the authorization field.
The authorization object and its fields have to be suitable for the transaction. In most cases you will be able to use the existing authorization objects to protect your data. But new developments may require that you define new authorization objects and fields.

To ensure that a user has the appropriate authorizations when he or she performs an action, users are subject to authorization checks.
Authorization : An authorization enables you to perform a particular activity in the SAP System, based on a set of authorization object field values.
You program the authorization check using the ABAP statement AUTHORITY-CHECK.
AUTHORITY-CHECK OBJECT 'S_TRVL_BKS'
ID 'ACTVT' FIELD '02'
ID 'CUSTTYPE' FIELD 'B'.
IF SY-SUBRC 0.
MESSAGE E...
ENDIF.
'S_TRVL_BKS' is a auth. object
ID 'ACTVT' FIELD '02' in place 2 you can put 1,2, 3 for change create or display.
The AUTHORITY-CHECK checks whether a user has the appropriate authorization to execute a particular activity.
This Authorization concept is somewhat linked with BASIS people.
As a developer you may not have access to access to SU21 Transaction where you have to define, authorizations, Objects and for nthat object you assign fields and values. Another Tcode is PFCG where you can assign these authrization objects and TCodes for a profile and that profile in turn attached to a particular user.
Take the help of the basis Guy and create and use.

As the name suggest it if for Authority check so that the person who is not having authorization for some data/transaction can be restricted from viewing it. It is very imortant for the security of data. Check below link for details on authorization.

Report to check authorization object used in customized programs
Hi Guys,
An auditor came and he raised a question to us, he asked whether all of our customized transactions and programs are maintained with authorization checks? The question is how can we check what authorization objects are used for our customized programs and transaction codes? The developer did not maintain the objects used for that program in SU24 table. Is there a program or a report to show us all the authorization object used for a customised program or transaction? Example : T-code MIGO we can check in SU24 table for all the authorization object used. How do we check for customized tcodes? Please advise. Thanks!
Edited by: Jarod Tan on Nov 25, 2010 9:42 AMNote that some programs are built in such a way that no (visible) auth check is necessary, or even desired at all.
To determine the necessity of an auth check, you should check that starting it has an entry point (tcode, rfc, service) which is appropriately restricted. The rest (whether and where and how a further check is evaluated) is entirely dependent to what the program actually does.
Well designed applications generally have centralized functions and methods, and the checks are in there or a "base check" they use.
Others again use the same in UI programming to determine the visibility of functions, to make the application more intuitive for the user. This on it's own is however not a sufficient auth check to rely on.
Code review is an art form!

Authorization check without using variable of type u0093Authorizationu0094
In WEB-reporting we want to authorize on a navigational attribute without using the variable of type
Authorization. Why would we do this?
1. In a lot of queries we have to replace the existing variable of type User entry to a variable of type Authorization. We would like to avoid this work.
2. When the variable is not ready for input the Report will always include all the characteristic values for which the user is authorized. We dons want this.
3. When the variable is ready for input on the selection screen all the authorized values are displayed and the user is able to select / deselect the values he/she wants to report. In case of a lot of authorized characteristic values the screen does not appear user-friendly.
What we want is a behavior like some parts of R/3. For example: Controlling Area X consists of the Costcenters C1000, C2000, C3000, C4000, C5000 and C6000. A particular user has authorization for Cost centers C1000, C3000 and C5000. When running a ABAP-report with Cosctcenters the user is able to select certain Costcenters. Three possibilities:
1. The user selects Costcenter C1000, C3000 and / or C5000: the ABAP reports the selected Costcenters.
2. The user selects Costcenter C2000, C4000 and / or C6000: the ABAP gives an error-message: no authorization.
3. The user does not select any Costcenters: the ABAP reads all the Costcenters and reports on the basis of the users authorization only Costcenters C1000, C3000 and C5000.
In term of BW: we would like to introduce authorizations for a specific InfoObject which is used as an navigational of an other InfoObject. In the queries a variable is used of the type User entry. The user can select one or more values on the selection screen; an authorization check is fulfilled. He may however choose to leave the selection field empty; in this case the OLAP processor should report only the authorized values (in our case the last situation results directly in an error-message no authorization).
Anyone has a suggestion?
Thx in advance,
HenkIf you change the variable to type exit, and user input enabled, you can then build your logic in the user exit.
If users have entered unauthorised values, it will be checked (by the system??). If this assumption is correct then all you need to do in your exit is to continue with the values entered by the user; and in case user has entered no values, populate the variable with values valid for the user (by reading the user authorization and corresponding charactertistics values and moving these to the variable).
--> Adding further
Since the authorization will not be checked by the system (I missed that these are not of authorization type variables), user exit will need to do this check. The logic for doing authorization checks / error messages / restricting based on authorizations - will have to be done in the user-exit.

How to find which custom program uses authorization checks
Hi all,
I have been asked to find out which custom ABAP program in our organization is using Authorizations checks and which is not.
Since there are thousands of custom programs I will need to automatize this process somehow. But I am not an ABAP expert and I will need some help.
Could any of you give me an idea of what would be the best strategy to find out if authorization objects/checks exist in a number of ABAP programs? (would a simple text search do?).
Many thanks,
AldoIf you are looking out for Authorization related to Execution of any program, then look for entries in table TRDIR where field SECU (Authorization Group) is not blank.
Below SAP documentation may help you:
Authorization Group
Authorization group to which the program is assigned.
The assignment of a program to an authorization group plays a role when the system checks whether the user is authorized to:
Execute a program
--> Authorization object S_PROGRAM
Edit a program (-Include) in the ABAP Workbench
--> Authorization object S_DEVELOP
Programs that are not assigned to an authorization group are not protected against display and execution.
Security-related programs should, therefore, always be assigned to an authorization group.
Report RSCSAUTH can also be used to assign programs to authorization groups. This report is documented in detail. -
HR ABAP Custom Authorization Check
Hi all,
We know that Implicit authorization check is carried out. The system determines whether the user has the authorizations required for the organizational features of the employees selected with
GET PERNR.
I have a question, if we create a custom authorization then, whether this custom authorization is checked or not.
Thanks in Advance.There is no difference in the coding of the check, which as RJ has stated needs to be somewhere at the correct coding location... otherwise it is going no where.
Some special differences are:
- The object class of the custom object in SU21 => Authorization objects in HR cannot be deactived context specifically in SU24. You can create custom objects within SAP classes.
- Depending on the transport type of your system, you will have to maintain transaction SU24 with a check indicator for the object - so make in known that the transaction has the capability to check the object. This does not affect "customer" systems, but is still a very good practice for the same reason that SAP forces it in their own development systems.
- Additional object checks in SE93 (which are typically "plausibility" checks) are not subject to this restraint. The check is always there, and your ability to bypass it is limited if you check the tcode authority of the caller at initialization of the (called) coding context. CALL TRANSACTION will skip this check, unless the called transaction is sy-tcode already (as it is in variant transactions... which urban legends claim to be secured to use for CALL TRANSACTION).
This concept is to a large extent influenced by SAP's own development guidelines and "settings" - but it is advisable to understand them and the intended authorization concept - to be able to create consistent customer implementations of SAP products.
Of course there are exceptions to the rules... but they generally cause problems and sooner or later need to be corrected as well when the auditors get hold of them....
Cheers,
Julius

Authorization check in LDB PNP
Hi All,
I am using logical database PNP in my report program and GET PERNR to fill the infotype tables. Infotype level authorization checks are performed but not Org data level (organizational assignments). The role assigned to me has access to data of specific personnel areas but I am able to retrieve data of all personnel areas (this was maintained in the authorization object P_ORGIN).
I read the level of simplification should have a value 1 in the authorization object P_ABAP for Org Level authorizations to be performed. I have updated my role but still org level authorizations are not performed.
Can you please let me know if any special setting are to be done like in Tcode OOAC or set some flags/parameters in the report program to perform org data level authorization.
Any information provided will be really helpful.
Thanks,
PavanHi,
A separate ID was created in an environment similar to production and proper authorization were assigned to it (I mean roles with authorization objcts P_ABAP - level of simplfication 1 and P_ORGIN - restricting based on personnel area). Still Org level authorizations were not performed while using the LDB PNP. Is there anything I am missing?
Thanks,
Pavan -

Hope this helps. -
CRM - Process Flow of Authorization Check in Business Transactions
Hello Folks:
I have implemented CRM security using Process Flow of Authorization Check in Business Transactions.
What I have in place:
CRM_ORD_OP (inactive, don't want access to own documents)
CRM_ORD_LP (inactive, not using standard org level values Distribution Channel, Sales Group, Sales Office, Sales Organization, and Service Organization.)
CRM_ACT (active)
CRM_CMP (active)
CRM_ORD_OE (active, restricted to display with dummy value ' ' for Distribution Channel
Sales Group, Sales Office, Sales Organization and Service Organization, as we are not restricting on them)
CRM_ORD_PR (active and restricted to display)
Issue:
Restrictions to display for documents works fine when using CRM backend system and the system throws out a message that you are not authorized to change. But, when i come in through Portals (PCUI), i dont get the display at all and it throws out a message insufficient access authorizations.
Traces on backend CRM reveal failing on change access for CRM_ORD_LP and CRM_ORD_PR, which we dont want to give out b/c we dont want to provide change for documents.
OSS notes to SAP have resulted in no results....please advise what is wrong here.
Thanks
KTThanks for the Priyanka for the reply, but what you mention is not correct.
BSP errors are different from what I am refering to.
The issue is still open...and looks like a SAP bug, which even they havent been able to fix so far.

Create authorization check for a report
Hi,
I need to create an authorization check for a report. It means that I need to restrict the usage of the report to couple of users ( 'USER1' and 'USER2' ). How can I do that? I did read through a lot of threads regarding this piece got a bit confused and stuck while creating the authorization object.
Say the report name is ZHR_TIMEABC.
Can anyone explain how to create an authorization object and how are they tied to the object and call them in the abap code?
Thanks in advance,
VGHi,
Thanks. Here is my understanding, S_C_FUNCT calls a system generated function module to make an authority check. So, if different users say USER1 and USER2 have different authroization levels, defined in their user profile, just adding this piece code will take care of authroization check for the program OR do I need to take care of something else?
If so, when do we need to create the authorization objects using SU20 and assign the group and follo this process? When do we use this approach ( lot of threads on authority check have mentioned this procedure)?
Your inputs will be helpful to understand this concept.
Thanks,
VG -
ESS: Who's Who Authorization Checks
Hi,
I am testing the ESS iView (tcode PZ01) in the Portal and it seems to be restricting the search results by my authorizations. I am not getting a full list of people in the system. Anyone know how to turn-off this authorization check?
I noticed this only happens when I changed the ESS Who's Who customizing in the IMG for PZ01. If I uncheck the checkbox 'Output fields list', then it checks authorzations. I'm thinking this has something to do with using the BAPI vs. using the query infoset, as the documentation states.

Authorization Check for Special Stock Indicator in IE02
Dear Gurus,
Would like to check with you if there is an authorization check for change in Special Stock Indicator in IE02-SerData Tab?
For example, the User will only be allowed to change the Special Stock Indicator only to "E" - Sales Order.
Would appreciate your help.
Thanks.Hi,
This cannot be done by using standard auth object. Standard SAP doesnt support control via this field.
Take help of your ABAP team and create an customized authorization object "Z_OBJECT" with field SOBKZ and which check these field value in table EQBS. Assign this auth object to role and profile you want.
Use the user exit IEQM0003 Additional checks before equipment update. Give a logic to check auth object when while using equipment change tcode.
