Need to restrict view of DIRs assigned to material, vendor, and customer

Hello,
SAP standard, version ECC 6.0. Different plants in use with requirement for differnt authorizations.
I know that DIRs can be assigned to material master. However, the problem is that it's client level data. Now there is a need to implement DMS with materials, vendors, and customers.
Problem is that company operates in different countries and with different plants. One material/customer/vendor is created and then extended to cover different plants.
Material 1111 has a specification assigned to it, e.g. document type ZSP with DIR 1000001111, this document is at client level.
Person A from plant 1000 can display and maintain it (1000001111) but person B from 2000 must not see this, she has DIR 10000011113 instead (and person A should see this).
If person A has authorizations which are limited by the plant type because of the usage of MM already, do these restrictions apply also to DMS? I haven't found a definite answer for this.
I cannot set a authorization object based on document type and maintaining different uthorization groups is the last option because of the vast number of users.
The same question is for customer. if there is e.g. a contract assigned to customer, can the view be restricted by distribution channel or another field provided by SD (standard solution).
Vendor master is the 3rd major issue. How to limit access to documents?
Help is highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Pia

Hi,
Can you please elaborate what is the object you mean. I have serious problems with system and cannot check it.
Thanks,
Pia

Vendor and customer assignment

Hi,
In EDSDC table, I can see the assignment between the vendor and customer , sales area and the sales doc type . but where can we assign this in IMG?
pls suggest.
Regards
Nawzir

Hi Syed R,
     We wont assign vendor -customer n viceversa in IMG but we assign it in Easy access, while maintianing master data-XD01/XK01
           In some cases,
our vendor might be our customer n at the same time,
our customer become our vendor,
eg: MRF tyres company sell the tyres to Tata motors, n MRF tyres can buy the 4 wheelers from Tata motors,
for this , we create MRF tyres as vendor(XK01) n customer(XD01),
after that in XK02- we assign this customer number into Vendor Master record, n
Vendor number to customer master record, to identify the sytem ,MRF tyres is a customer *** vendor,
Here we need to have 2 different Master data's becoz of its accounting documents ,
as we knew, Customer cums into Debitros-A/R module
Vendor cums into Creditors- A/P module.
in XD02-general data-control data, u fill find vendor field,
*hope this helps,

Restrict View of quotation only by its creator and not to all users

Hi,
There is a team of Marketing users who are responsible to send Quotations to Customers for Sales Inquiry.
One Marketing User is sending quotation to his generated lead/Customer. Similarly another user is also sending a quotation to his own generated lead/ customer.
Now, after the quotations are sent, while pulling a report, all marketing users are able to view every Quotation sent to different customers created by different users in one screen.
We don't want one marketing user to view another marketing user's quotation, since there is a possibility of information leakage (Sale Price-Quote) due to which we are loosing customers. Somebody from marketing team is leaking the information to competitors.
Kindly suggest a way to control this problem.

Hi Nabin
Are you talking about only in report or do you want to control this in VA23/VA22 transactions as well? If you restrict this in report users could watch this in display quotation transaction.
And also let me know which report you are talking about? Share the Tcodes please. If this is standard one then its better to remove that from user's role and create your own report. Use authority check object in that report and give access to every user so that they can view their own quotations.
Search the google with authorization check coding. Create an authorization object with ERNAM field and give every user name in every user's role. If this is confusing for you, you could seek help from your technical guys.

Restriction of Profit Centre assignment in Material Master

Hi folks!!
We have been using two different profit centres number ranges in material master, one with only numbers and the other one with alphabet sufix.
Now we want to stop material master creator from assigning profit centre with alphabet sufix in material master.
Please help how to do it

You can try using the Badi

for writting the logic . You can restric both alpha numeric and numeric also here .

How to delete MRP view data after create in Material master data ?

Hi all ,
After user create a useless MRP view data in Material master data , how to remove it ?

Hi
Material master once created cannot be deleted.Only thing u can do is to mark it for deletion
Go to Logistics > Materials management > Material master > Material > Flag for deletion > Immediately.
Give the necessary data that is needed for the view you want to delete.
Press and flag the view you want to delete.
Now the view is flagged for deletion. This means that it's use is limited and it will be cleaned up or really deleted at the next clean up of the system.

I need to restrict users to submit data from Smart view or Excel Addin.

Hi All,
I need to restrict users to submit data from Smart view or Excel Addin.
I cant provision them as read access because I want them to write from the Hyperion Planning Web Form.
Any help on the same will be highily appriciated.

John,
Thanks for the reply . if i dont give them essbase write role user cant submit data through smartview or Excel addin. at the same users want to see adhoc reports making connection in smartview through planning, then users can send data.
1. I want users to restrict export dataform to smartview, if they can export dataform to smartview it automatically makes connection using planning and users can pretty much change data.
2. is there any way to restrict users making connection through planning in smartview.
3. when users make smartview connection through essbase, the secuirty works fine and they cant change the data.
Please let me know if you any solution ....
advance thanks,
NM

How To Restrict View of Data Per User

I am designing a reporting application in Discoverer, from Oracle Applications data. We need to show sales data to the sales people - and we would like a single Discoverer workbook to do this - the challenge is that we need to restrict the data so that the salesperson only sees his/her own data, and cannot view other sales data.
I will need to use this same methodology for the sales managers. Each sales manager will only be able to see his/her direct reports' sales data.
How would you design this? Could we use a single Discoverer workbook for all sales people - and there be row-level security to restrict the current users' search results?
Thank you,
Rich Magee
Greenwich, CT

Yes Rich. We have only one workbook for all the stores in our case. You can create mapping table like this
Table Name: usermapping
username salesrepid
john 10
michelle 20
If you are using your own tables/views for your reports create a repid column in them and populate accordingly.Assuming that your custom tables is like this
Table Name: RepInfo
line# salesrepid region product amount
1 10 NE S/W 1000.00
2 20 SW H/W 500.00
Create a function like this
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION setparam (name VARCHAR2)
RETURN NUMBER
IS
BEGIN
/* Setting the session client information to the value of parameter so that this can be accessed
by the custom folder in the admin edition */
dbms_application_info.set_client_info(name);
RETURN 1;
END;
Create a custom folder like
select a.region,a.product,a.amount
from
repinfo a,
usermapping b
where
a.salesrepid = b.salesrepid
and b.username = USERENV('CLIENT_INFO') --gets the username from the above function which sets the username for the database session.
The input to above function which is username would be passed from report using a calculation item.You can create a calculation item and select the function setparam and give the input to it 'USER' variable which is gives the username of the current session.
The workbooks passes the username to function and custom folder would get the username from the function.This approach would allow you to pass the username dynamically and use the same report for all the rep's. I'vent tried VPD concept till now.
Hope this helps.
Thanks

Restrict view buiseness area and profit center

Dear all,
We have requirement that for particular user we need to restrict to view only one Business Area ( we have total 6 Business Area ) in standard T-code (e.g FBL3N,FBL5N)
Please let me know how to do this.
We tried certain authorization objects, but it won't help us to restrict user.
Thanks and Regards,
Abhijit

Hi Abhijit
Please check below documentation from help.sap.com:
"    You can protect the user activities that affect accounting documents from different viewpoints. On the one hand, you can specify the organizational units (such as company code, business area) in which an employee may post or display a document. On the other hand, you can define authorization for posting and processing documents from the point of view of the accounts.
    You should note the following special features of authorization objects for accounting documents:
        With automatic postings, the system does not carry out an authorization check for business areas and accounts. Therefore, these authorizatons only take effect with manually-entered line items.
        Authorizations for document types and business areas are not taken into consideration for display functions and for reporting. That is, line items are always displayed in lists for all document types and for all business areas.
        Line items for which an employee has no authorization are suppressed when displaying and changing documents. The system indicates the missing authorization with a message.
        The authorization check for business areas is carried out when posting and changing documents, but not when displaying them. You use this authorization check for posting and changing, to avoid incorrect entries."
[http://help.sap.com/saphelp_40b/helpdata/en/d6/eb2c7dd435d1118b3f0060b03ca329/content.htm]
Please check with functional people on configuration settings as well because I searched and found that in IMG there is option "Activate display authorization for business area" which needs to be activated as applicable.
I hope in consultation with functional guys you would be able to come up with desired solution.
Best Regards
Prashant

Need to restrict users from adding or modifying folders or reports

Requirement: Need to restrict users from adding or modifying folders or reports through Info view and to reflect the modifications only thriough LCM.
Issue: Customer wants to restrict users from adding or modifying existing reports from Infoview and need to force users to do make the changes through Life cycle manager tool.
As per my understanding LCM can only be used to to promote folders and objects from one environment to another and to schedule the promotion of these jobs on a daily basis.My query is:
Can we add or modify existing reports or folders using the LCM tool?
Could you please help me out in this issue and provide me your suggestions.
Thanks in advance.
Prashanthi Rayaprolu.

You can not restrict that using LCM. Need to modify the rights at the folder level.
Explicitly remove the following rights for the user group,
Add objects to the folder
Edit objects
Delete objects
Copy objects to another folder (check this if required)
Once the above four are denied then users wont be able to Edit/Add/Delete reports in that folder.

hi pratap,
on ps texts account, can u pl let me know, how i can restrict using the ps texts assigned to one project, bcos the same ps text can be edited or modified any other user.
ps texts may be different eg, different excel sheets assigned at wbs elements.
1. abc project wbs assigned xyz ps text (excel sheet)
2. zyx project wbs assigned xyz1 ps text (excel sheet)
the above are used by two different users.
if abc project user goes thru cj02 for editing the ps text xyz, but at the same time, if this user goes thru pull down list, he can also pick up xyz1 ps text and can do edit/modify.
is there any way to restrict thru basis/ps control or authorisations
my requirement whatever assigned ps text is only has to be changed/modified as & when the user opens project thru cj02
pl help
regards
