Authorization to a transaction with spro locked

Question

HI!
(I didn't found any answer for my question in the forum, I'm sorry if it's already answered)
I want to give access/authotization to a few users in transaction OB58 (spro) in production system . The thing is the access to spro is not allowed in production. I want it to keep that way, and only give access to OB58 transaction.
Or.. is that any other way they could change Financial statement versions ?
I can not understand how there is not a transaction on SAP easy access for that. Am I confused, or anytime the client creates new accounts (which happens frequently) they need to add them to financial statement.
Many thanks,
Manu

>I understand. I thought it was posbile, even though the cliente was closed & locked, to make modifications if some special authorization was given.
This is possible, but there is an order of preference.
Best is a view with "current settings" activated. Downside is that you cannot maintain it in dev if you need to, in which case you can use a table maintenance generator and have almost limitless possibilities to control the access.
Depending on the delivery class settings of the table, more or less authorizations will be required.
Most notable is SE16 vs. SM30 and their parameter transactions.
The solution to your problem might be the choice of transaction. I am sure it is there in the SAP menu somewhere, so ask your functional contact in FI.
