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.

Lay Chin

hi
yes if u want to make any additional authorizations in sap related documents or udo you can use additional authorization creator
u would have to check in the test database like the authorization u wana create if it is feasible through inbuilt additional authorization creator or not.

Hi Henry,
I don't think this is the easiest way to look at the code around a particular field on the screen. Debugging standard programs also can be very tedious, if not impossbile. So, instead of this question, I would like to find out exactly what you want to do if you know the code.
If you are in a transaction and you want to know where the code of a particular field is, the fastest way to get to it is by pressing the F1 key on the field and then press the Technical info button on the help screen. In here you will typically see the same kind of information but it is very specific to the field you selected.
PROGRAM(SCREEN) tells you which program is manipulating the main screen, in which your field is embedded. Remember your field may be included in a sub-screen and that subscreen may be the one included in the main screen.
PROGRAM(SUB SCREEN) tells you which program is directly responsible for the field on the subscreen it is included in. This is where you should find the code most appropriate for the field, but not necessarily.
PROGRAM(GUI) controls how your push buttons and the menu options in the screen behave and controlled.

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.

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.

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.
Regards
Marcin

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.

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.
Thanks in Advance

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.

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.

User role for user authentication in a SOAP receiver channel

Hi,
What is the role required for a user in a SOAP receiver channel. This user is specified in the User Authentication while configuring the channel.

Hi,
User Authentication is not mandatory but If your Web service requires logon data, select the Configure User Authentication checkbox and fill in the corresponding fields.
If the Web service is outside your system landscape and you need to address a proxy
server, select the Configure Proxy checkbox.
The sender SOAP adapter does not require a SOAP action, but you always have
to apply logon data when using the SOAP adapter. In the central adapter engine
you can use a service user such as xiappluser; in a non-central adapter
engine or a PCK you must use one of the user names assigned to security role
xi_adapter_soap_message for component XISOAPAdapter.

Basic User Authentication

I'm a Dreamweaver beginner, and am trying to create a user account creation page. I've created the basic form and applied "User Authentication->Check New Username" (checking for username field in my database). The problem I'm having is that while I was able to successfully create one account, all subsequent account creation attempts are unsuccessful and take me back to my "If already exists..." page. This seems like a simple thing, and in fact, there're aren't too many options that I can try to get this working. Yet I'm still stumped.
Any ideas?

User authentication in Cisco ACS by adding external RADIUS database

Hi,
I would like to configure the below setup:
End user client (Cisco Any connect/VPN client) -> ASA 5500 (AAA client) -> ACS server -> External RADIUS database.
Here ACS server would send the authentication requests to External RADIUS server.So, i have added the external user database (RADIUS token server) in
ACS under External databases.I have added AAA client in Network configuration (selected authenticate using RADIUS(VPN 3000/ASA/PIX 7.0) from the drop down.
Here how do i make ASA recognize that it has to send the request to ACS server. Normally when you use ACS as RADIUS server you can add an AAA server in ASA and test it.But here we are using an external RADIUS server which has been configured in ACS, so how do i make ASA to send the requests to ACS server?
Any help on this would be really grateful to me.
Thanks and Regards,
Rahul.

Thanks Ajay,
As you said nothing needs to be done on ASA side, if we are using an external user database for authentication.
Im a newbie to ACS and this is the first time i'm trying to perform a two factor authenticaton in Cisco ACS using external user database.
By two factor authentication i mean, username + password serves as first factor (validated by RADIUS server), username + security code (validated by RADIUS server) serves as second factor.So, during user authentication i enter only username in username field and in "password" field i enter both "password + security code". Our RADIUS server has already been configured with AD as user store, so we dont have to specify AD details in ACS. I have done the following in ACS to perform this two factor authentication.
-> In external user databases, i have added a external RADIUS token server.
-> In unknown user policy , i have added the external data base that i configured in ACS into the selected databases list.
-> under network configuration, i have added the Cisco ASA as AAA client (authenticate using RADIUS (Cisco VPN 3000/ASA/PIX 7.x+)).
Just to check whether user authentication is successful, i launched the ACS webVPN using https://IP:2002, it asked me to enter username and password. So, i entered username and in password field i entered "password + security code". But, the page throws an error saying "login failed...Try again".I cant find any logs in external RADIUS server.
Here is what i found in "Failed attempts" logs under Reports and activities.

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...
