Encryption of standard SAP field (product cost)

Hi,
My client would like to encrypt product cost-related fields, and I was wondering how to encrypt the field much like you would a credit card number of password.
Thanks
Brian

Not sure if the encryption is in the GUI so users don't see it or in the database so DBAs can't access it.
One way to encrypt it is through DB encryption methods such as TDE for Oracle.  If you are Oracle shop, TDE is in your license and you can use is as of Oracle 10.2.0.4.

  • Set User Authentication at Particular UDF or Standard SAP Field?

    Hi Experts,
    I learn that we can set authorization at UDT by using Additional Authorization Creator.
    Is there any method we can set authorization at particular UDF or Standard SAP Field?
    For example: my customer just want to make one field in Business Partner to be "READ-ONLY" for certain users, is it possible to be done?
    Thanks.

  • Change description of standard SAP field

    Hi All,
    I am trying to change the description of standard SAP field VKBUR from u201CSales Officeu201D to u201CDistrictu201D. I changed it in CMOD Text Enhancements Data Elements. The description has changed in many places but not in transaction VA01/02/03. I looked at screen SAPMV45A-4301. Field VBAK-VKBUR has attributes u201CModification of a field from the ABAP Dictionaryu201D set to u201CFu201D. It means when description is changed in dictionary, it is not transferred to this screen. So how can I change the description of this field in these transactions.
    Any help is highly appreciated. Thanks.

    Hello Alvarado,
    Thanks for your response. I found out that there is no need for core mod.
    In SE63 doing translating short texts for object type screen texts works.
    However I am giving you points for your suggestion and closing this thread

  • Required steps to add standard SAP field to Work Manager 6.0

    Dear Agentry experts,
    I need some help on how to add standard SAP backend fields to the Work Manager 6.0 application. The application is freshly setup and not yet customized apart from filters, so we are also new to develop it.
    Specifically we want to add fields QMTXT and QMCOD from Notification Header. We have checked and the fields are activated in the backend configuration, so I hope there are no changes required to the backend. However, when checking the data in the ATE, the fields are currently not added / available in the Notification Collection.
    I have searched this forum and found several pointers, but they deal with adding a full new field, and I want to keep changes limited. Can you please advise what specific steps I need to do on the Agentry / Eclipse side to close the gap between SAP backend and the Notification Collection. (I know how to add the fields to the UI if they are in the collection). Do we need to create custom Java Classes? Can I solve this by just Agentry configuration?
    Thank you very much for your kind advice!

    Look at the attachment, diagram depicts a data flow across the systems. You have to extend Java code for  the object  your trying to enhance and plus you have to make  necessary changes on  Agentry side as well.
    if you have access to Service Market place , check out  SAP-WM-6.0-EnhancementsGuide.pdf document under Work Manager 6.0 documentation which describes the steps involved in enhancing application.
    Alternatively you can also check this blog Syclo Customization Extension-First Steps.

  • Search help for Standard SAP field

    Hi,
    I need to add a search help to Group key (KONZS) field in XK01 transaction. How can i add our own search help to a field in standard transaction?? This is some what urgent, please give me the solution .
    Thanks in Adavance,
    Moghani.

    You can APPEND your own search help to an SAP field that has search help defined.  This is similar to APPENDing fields to an SAP table.  But since field KONZS does NOT have any search help assigned, this option is not available to you. 
    You can also attach the search help to a field on a screen, i.e. limit the scope to that single screen, but this would still require a modification to the system, and hence, an access key.  If you want to follow that route, the program name is SAPMF02K, screen 120, element list tab, references tab, search help column.
    If you find another way to do this without an access key, please let us know.

  • Looking For Standard SAP Report - Production Orders - Hours

    Is anyone aware of a standard report in SAP's PP module that shows labor hours in a planned vs. actual fashion?  The report that resides in a single production order via the menu path Goto -> Costs -> Analysis is great.  Our Plant Managers though need a report that allows people to view orders in summary across their plant.
    Thanks.

    All -
    I appreciate the suggestions.  I did try transactions S_ALR_87013127 and KRMI.  Here's what I found:
    - S_ALR_87013127 is good transaction our Plant Managers already use to see their performance on Plan vs. Actual for costs.  Unfortunately, hours are not included on the report.
    - KRMI is a transaction I had not used before.  I unfortunately couldn't get any actual line items to appear.

  • Making standard SAP field editable

    I have two standard fields VBRP-KOSTL (Cost Center) and VBRP-PRCTR (Profit Center) in transaction VF01(Create billing document) that I want to make editable. Can anyone give me detailed step on how to achieve this?
    Thanks for your help. This would be greatly appreciated.

    Dear Abbey,
    You can do this by maintaining trasaction variant in SHD0. You would have options to make a field display only, required entry, optional entry, supress.
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_webas620/helpdata/en/eb/5fab41d79b11d296190000e82de14a/content.htm
    In the SAP Reference IMG, you can create transaction variants. Choose Basis Components -> Application Personalization -> Tailoring of Application Transactions -> Configure Transaction-Related Display Values for Fields (Transaction SHD0). Transaction variants allow you to preset values for fields in a transaction, set field attributes, or hide entire screens.
    To execute a transaction variant, you define a variant transaction using the Transaction Maintenance transaction (SE93).
    Once you have entered a transaction code and short description, choose transaction type Transaction with variant (Variant transaction).
    To define a variant, enter the name of the transaction and the name of the variant. You can then use the new transaction code to start the special variant of the transaction.
    Hope this will resolve your issue.
    Regards,
    Naveen.

  • Updation of Standard SAP Fields

    Hi Friends,
    I am generating some transaction with business object.I would like to update some SAP Standard Tables (base transaction). SAP does not recommend us to fire SQL Statement on standard tables. How can I update some fields like baseref, basetype,Iscommited and many more.
    Can anybody throw some light on this topic.

    Hi Manish........
    SAP does allow us to update some of the fields which has unique Id like Internal No. and its not healthy also for SAP DB.
    So I would suggest you to create your own numbering in order get the the output.

    Hi,
    I don't know how to change "Value table" field on domain without access key, but if nothing else work, you can add new fixed values. From menu Goto->fixed value append.
    Other possibility is to use GuiXT -> write script that will call your FM that will get data from your table and show them.

  • How to change the desription of a standard SAP field in the Search Help

    Hi All,
    In Table T023T there is a field WGBEZ60(Long text describing the material group) and the data element of the field is WGBEZ60.
    Requirement is to change the description of the field WGBEZ60.The desription of the  field is - Description 2 for the material group.
    But the user want as - Description for the material group. He dont want 2 in the description.
    we are using this field in the search help of Material group for the transaction ME21N and ME51N.
    So please tell me how can we change the description of the field in the Search help.
    Thanks.
    Regards,
    Peeyush

    As search help uses data element , it shows its keyword. So you have to do modification to that keyword.
    - Go to CMOD
    - from top menu GOTO -> Text enhancements -> Keywords -> Change -> type WGBEZ60 -> change the description -> Save and add it to transport
    - now use that data element either on the screen or search help. It will have the descripiton modified.

  • Product Costing in SAP Retail Solution

    Hi experts
    I have a question about product costing in SAP Retail (SAP ECC 6.0).
    In material master data (Tr. MM43 - Tr. MM42) Product Costing view for Logistics:CD sheet is activated.
    Although, for Logistics:Store sheet is not activated.
    In customizing, we have tried to activate the Product Costing view for Logistics:Store sheet, but there no standard dynpro to use it. So, we have some doubts:
    - Do we have to create customer (Z) dynpros in order to activate Product Costing view for Logistics:Store sheet?
    - Does SAP allows Product Costing functionality in SAP Retail solution?
    If both answers are YES, i have another doubt:
    - In our business scenario, the store is supplied by the Distribution Center. So, does it make sense to run product costing for
    a articles in a Store?
    We think it makes sense to apply product costing functionality in Distribution center. In order to analyze deviations from
    Standard costs to real costs.  But we are not sure about Stores.
    Does anyone have experience in customizing product costing functionality for a SAP retail in a Logistics:Store?
    Thank you for your time

    hi
    Product hierarchy in R3 is termed as Merchandise category hierarchy in SAP IS retail
    But in R3 Product hierarchy is not used much but Merchandise category hierarchy that is termed as MCH  is a basic thing reqd for defining master data that is article master data which is nothing but material master in R3
    As i said Product hierarchy  levels are available in R3 also but not much used
    Merchandise category hierarchy levels is most commonly used in SAP IS retail
    What we call material group in R3 is same as Merchandise category in SAP IS retail and material in R3 is article in Retail
    Merchandise category hierarchy levels
    Say a Retail mall has merchandise items
    Under merchandise there are 2 divisions Food and non food
    Under nonfood say there are 2 divisions  say hardware and apparel
    Under apparel there   2 divisions  say Mens wear and ladies wear
    Under mens wear you have t shirts,shirts and pants etc
    Here t shirts,shirts and pants etc are individual articles
    Menswear  and ladies wear are material groups
    Hardware and apparel are merchandise hierarchy level 1
    Food and non food merchandise hierarchy level 2
    Retail mall is merchandise hierarchy level 3
    like that hierarchy levels are commonly defined and used as a must to have efficient master data in SAP retail and the maximum no of hierarchy to have ideally is 6 apart from Merchandise category
    In our example we have defined three levels
    The same functionality can be used as product hierarchy in R3 also but doesnt been put in to use much
    In Retail the no of articles a store is going to manage to be will be huge hence this sort of seggregation is needed there must
    For more clarity try to post this in retail forum(Trading industries)

  • Make SAP standard PO fields output only using ME22N?

    Is there a way to suppress the standard SAP fields (output only) when the user selects ME22N, that will still allow input to custom fields which have been added to EKPO?  Has anyone had to do this before?  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
    Sharon German

    Hi Sharon,
    FYI, there is probably a better forum for this question, this is more of a NetWeaver discussion forum.
    If I read your question correctly, your desire is to have only certain fields (some custom) available when users execute the transaction ME22N.  First, don't mess with ME22N, if you desire custom performance, create a new transaction as a copy of ME22N and make available only those standard and custom fields you want.  Hope this helps...

  • Product Costing using Moving Average Price of FERT & HALB

    Dear Experts,
    My client wants to use Product Costing functionality by using Moving Average Price instead of Standard Price on Finished Goods & Semi Finished Goods and as per my understanding, SAP recommends to use Standard Price on FERT &  HALB.
    I know if we use moving average price instead of standard price than there will be no concept of variances. Can anyone tell me more about what are the pros and cons of using moving average price instead of standard price in Product Costing?
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Zain Bashir

    Hi Zain
    Let's take an example
    You have V for Mat A
    You create 3 Prod orders in a month
    Order 1 - Qty 10 - variance 100
    Same for Order 2 and 3..
    At month end, you sold 20 pieces and 10 is in stock..
    When you settle order 1, system will compare order qty and stock.. It will match I.e. 10 = 10... Hence variance of 100 will be posted on stock
    Same will happen for Order 2 and 3... Ideally, only 100 should have posted on stock... but in this case 300 of variance will be posted on stock...
    This is what the note mentioned by Arturo tells, but not so clearly
    Hope this helps
