ME53N Prevent user from making a change

How do you prevent a user from making a change to a purchase requistion via transaction ME53N?  We want the user to make a change to the purchase requisition using transaction ME52N not transaction ME53N.  When the user is in transaction ME53N and clicks on the pencil to change the purchase requisition we want to prevent the user from making any changes by sending a message or force the screen to go to display mode.  Thank you in advance.

Sharon,
I don't believe that your exact requirement can be met with standard SAP.
However, this is a very odd requirement.  It sounds like you are saying that it is OK for a user to make a PR change in ME52N,  but for the same user it is not OK to make a PR change in ME53N.
In most companies, if it is not OK for a user to make a PR change in ME53N, it is therefore also not OK for this user to make a PR change in ANY transaction, including ME52N.
It is a straightforward matter to allow a user access to ME53N and ME52N, but to block his ability to change any PR at any time.  If this  is your requirement, then consult with your authorization team about the authorization objects that are checked in the ME5* series of transactions.  As I recall, it is possible to tailor authorizations (create/change/display etc) by plant, by Purchasing group, by purchasing org,by  document type, etc.

  • How to restrict the user from making any changes in Sales order- item level

    Hi to all
    How to restrict the users from making any changes in sales order at item level if the same sales order is released by senior user through status profile.
    Regards
    Anish Parikh

    Hi Anish,
    This can be achieved through the roles and authorization.
    This can be done through the basis team. they can create user profiles and roles.
    For the roles they assign some transaction codes so that they can view the only assigned tr. codes.
    Like that ur requirement can be done.
    Also u can prevent the user to change any fields in the sales order screen (VA02). for that please modify the authorisations.
    Hope i answers.
    Reward points if useful.

  • Restrict users from making repository changes

    We want to restrict certain users from making workbench/repository changes.  Is this possible through transaction PFCG by roles?  If so, what authorizations do I need to customize?

    In a nutshell users should have limited authoriztions to items of S_DEVELOP auth. object.

  • Prevent user from making to many requests...

    Hallo everybody,
    We are using Tomcat 5.0 and have some large jsp's (reports) that consume large memory.
    1. Is there an easy way to prevent a user from making to many requests (eg. if he refreshes the page too many times, Tomcat gets an Out-of-memory error).
    Of cource increasing the memory is not the answer I'm looking for (already did that).
    2. Or may be a way to retrict a user to a certain maximum of memory
    This seems like a common problem; anyone have good advice?
    Thanks in advance.
    Marcus

    The main reason for multiple refreshes is the report taking too long to run and users getting impatient? Or is there another reason.
    1 - Give the users fair warning. Put a message on the page saying "this report takes time to run. do NOT refresh this page as then the report will take even longer"
    2 - You might set it up as a two stage process. Generate the report to a file. Then give them a link to check the progress of the report or load it if it is finished.
    That way when they refresh, they don't regenerate the report, but just get back a immediate response that tells them "come back later"
    3 - Perhaps you might consider the synchronizer token pattern.
    http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/javatips/jw-javatip136.html
    4 - restricting users to max amount of memory would be difficult. How do you tell it is the same user? You could use a session variable, and record how many reports they have currently running, and reject any more then 3-4 requests at one time. But that could be worked around quite easily - just open up a new browser and its a new session.

  • My location services screen has a haze over it which prevents me from making any changes.

    MY location services screen has a haze over it which prevents me from using any of the slide switches, any suggestions?

    Quit the Settings app completely and reboot the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the recents tray will appear with all of your recent apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • Pymt Terms - Ability to LOCK down Users from Input or Change

    Is there an easy  way to prevent Users from Entering or Changing Payment Terms on an Invoice? Note in other module areas there is an easy way to Define the Screen Layout for Optional/Required/Display etc.,  (Materials Managment / Purchasing) .   Thanks!!!

    Hi Santosh
    I have been off working on another area. Your feedback is always so helpful. As stated before, your suggestion allows me to Suppress Payment Term, but is there a way to simply Ghost (shows up but user cannot change it)...
    btw, I want to allow only specific Security Group/Authorizations to change the Payment Method in FB60 or any Logistics Invoice... Have you run across this?  I will be submitting a new thread on this but thought I would ask here as well...
    As always... Thank you!!!!

  • Prevent user from changing calendar permission

    Hi team,
    How to prevent users from changing calendar permission in outlook. When user open calendar option in Outlook he should either he should able to view the calendar sharing tab or he should not able to make modification in calendar permission by assigning permission
    to others.

    Hi,
    Agree with Andy. Exchange has no built-in feature to prevent mailbox owner to modify their calendar permissions. Since they are owners, they can set their calendar permissions.
    Thanks for your understanding.

  • How to prevent users from creating transactional problems?

    Dear Sirs...
    Using JDeveloper 10.1.2 and ADF UIX technology. If i created a web application that contains many pages. Assume the application contains pages A,B,C,D.
    The end user should access the pages A then B then C then D to get the transaction executed and commited correctly.
    the problem is:
    1- if a user navigates from A to B to C then he press the Back button to A then he commits the transaction, the data would be stored in correctly.
    2- if page C requires some preparations in page B (initalization of session variables) and the user enters page A then he changes the URL to C, then this would cause inproper execution of application and so the data would be stored incorrectly.
    so how can i prevent the user from pressing the back button of the browser (which i do not think is possible) or how can i prevent him from making any errors by inproper page navigation?
    thanks for any help in advance and best regards

    I really don't know if this is the correct way of doing it, but we prevent navigation directly to any page within our application if the HTTP Referer header is null. If it's null, we redirect to a page that says the user should use the navigation buttons provided and not enter the page via bookmarks, history, or direct navigation via a typed in URL.

  • How can SAP be configured to prevent users from consuming locks?

    How can SAP be configured to prevent users from consuming locks?
    The issue is that we want to prevent users to use upto maximum locks and so that we will not get lock table overflow issue. I know that we can assign parameter "enque/table_size" a good amount of value. But it is not for any specific user.
    Also want to alert in CCMS if any user reaches to its maximum speficified limit of locks.
    Thanks
    Gopesh

    You cannot set a limit of locks per user. There are two ways to reduce/control the number of locks:
    - change fewer records within one transaction
    - cover more records with one lock using wildcards
    Basically it is an application / development issue.

    Hi
    DBAs can use PRODUCT_USER_PROFILE (in system schema) to disable certain SQL and SQL*Plus commands in the SQL*Plus environment on a per-user basis. SQL*Plus, not Oracle, enforces this security. DBAs can even restrict access to the GRANT, REVOKE, and SET ROLE commands in order to control users' ability to change their database privileges.
    The PRODUCT_USER_PROFILE table enables you to list roles which you do not want users to activate with an application. You can also explicitly disable use of various commands, such as SET ROLE. For example, you could create an entry in the PRODUCT_USER_PROFILE table to:

  • CE10 how to prevent user from view hostrical instance

    hi,
    We are currently using CE10. One of our user used search functionality in enterprise to search for reports start with 'employee' and it came  back with all the crystal reports on the server that  started with employees, even the one the user doesn't have access to.  My greatest concern about this is that users can view historical instance and it is sensitive data.  Does anybody know whether or not this is a bug in CE10?  Is there a patch/fix for this?  Is there any configuration change that I can make to
    prevent users from being able search all the reports on the server rather just their own reports?  Any help is greatly appreciated.

    hi,
    I have an EVERYONE group with limited access(view object), and EVERYONE group is added to each folder with NO ACCESS.  If I revoke view object(explicitly denied) privilege from EVERYONE group, do I still need to remove EVERYONE group from each folder?  When I'm at folder level in CMC, I see EVERYONE GROUP added, but when I tried to remove the EVERYONE GROUP, the EVERYONE group is not an option for removal.  What am I missing?

  • How to prevent users from creating new folders in share folder directory?

    Hello guys
    I'd like to know How to prevent users from creating new folders in share folder directory but still keep their power of creating new folders in their personal 'my folder'?
    I tried changing the 'manage privilage ---- create folder' to deny certain user accounts, but by doing so, it also stops the user from creating new folders in their 'my folder', which is not good..
    I also tried going into these share folders and tried different access types such as 'change/delete', 'read', 'traverse folder' etc, but none of it work ideally. The 'change/delete' access still allows them to create new folders, 'read' access prevents creating new folders but also take away their power of saving reports..
    Any thoughts on how to take away their ability to ONLY create new folders in share folder areas without affecting their other privileges?
    Please advise
    Thank you

    Easy, on the shared folders root folder only give them 'read' or 'traverse folder' but on the the folder inside the shared folders root folder give them 'change/delete'. That means they can change anything inside those folders but not create any folders at the shared folders root level.

  • Prevent user from selecting quiz answer

    I'm using CP5 and my project is predominantly quiz questions.  Each question allows infinite attempts and uses advanced answer options to 'show' audio feedback for all answers submitted (wrong and correct).
    Also, each quiz has an audio introduction.
    When a user enters a quiz slide, the audio intro plays, but the user is able to submit an answer. If they do this, the audio feedback for the question plays at the same time as the introduction audio. Similarly, if the user submits a wrong answer, then quickly submits another answer, the 2 feedback audios play concurrently.
    So, things are working as I expect them to, but it's not ideal and is a little sloppy if a user doesn't wait for audio to stop before doing their thing.
    Is there a way to prevent users from submitting answers while either the intro to the slide is playing or while another answer feedback is playing?
    I haven't been able to figure out how to do this with advanced actions.
    I also considered putting invisible, dead buttons or captions over the answers that would block a user's click until the audio is done, but there's no way that I know to put anything in front of a quiz object.
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi Guido,
    please state your specific question in the posting as well, as after quickly reading it I had to stop and read a second time to really get the meaning of it.
    So you want to know how you can prevent change of selection in certain cases:
    For simple validation a client-side javascript would be easy, this way you can even prevent the submit-event from being fired.
    For more complex validation you need the server, right. But I would not use the iterator method for this.
    The "best" place for input validation would be do_handle_data, which is executed before do_handle_event, where you can react on the incoming row-selection-event and the validation result.

  • How to prevent users from running PRC: Transaction Import from WebADI form?

    Hi,
    We are 12.1.3 and trying to create a workflow to approve Project transactions coming through web ADI before they become effective. To this end, we want to prevent users from running the PRC: Transaction Import from the Web ADI.
    I know that if the checkbox Automatically run transaction import is not checked, the program does not run. But we want to hide this checkbox and not allow the possibility that the program could get triggered.
    To this end, we updated the BNE_INTEGRATORS_B with source='C'. This allows you to edit the integrator from Desktop Integration Manager.
    UPDATE BNE_INTEGRATORS_B SET SOURCE ='C' WHERE  INTEGRATOR_CODE ='PAXTTRXB'
    In the 4th step, where the value for Uploader Parameters is set, we have set boolean value to No. These are the fields on the page:
    Parameter Name: bne:import
    Display Name: Start Transaction Upload
    Data Type: Boolean
    Category: Field
    Default Value: Boolean Flag: No
    Description: start Transaction Import Concurrent Request
    Display Options: Displayed: Unchecked
    Display Options: Enabled: Checked
    Display Options: Required: Checked
    Prompt Left: Automatically submit Transaction import
    Display Type: Check Box
    Maximun Size: 100
    Display Size:100
    Now the checkbox is not appearing for the user to check it, But the program is automatically running when you hit Upload in the WebADI. 

    Hi ,
    Try removing the PRC: Transaction Import Program from the request group for the responsibility used by customers to submit the WebADI and then check if the program launches.
    Regards,
