Special Authorization Values for characteristics

I had a question about the authorization value '*' (asterisk)
SAP defines how this can be used as follows:
(asterisk)
.. Denotes a set of arbitrary characters
.. Used alone to grant access to all values
.. Used at the end of a value to specify a simple pattern (example: SAP*)
Here is my situation:
InfoObject A: Values can be: A,B, C, A1, B1, C1, C2, A1G, B1D, C1A, C2A etc.
If a user has authorization of C, it automatically means he is authorized to view values C1, C2, C1A and C2A. In this case can I assign values
C, C and C** (I am doubtful abt using *(double asterisk))
Please clarify.
Thanks

Asterisk denotes a set of arbitary characters
Used alone to grant access to all values
used at the end of a value to specify a simple pattern(example SAP *)
+(Plus)
Denotes exactly one character
Used at the end of a value to specify a simple pattern (example - RED+)
Used to specify date patterns(only for validity (OTCAVALID))
Hope it Helps

    Authorization Group for Characteristics Maintenance
    This key defines whether a user is allowed to maintain this characteristic.
    This authorization must be defined in the user master record.
    The authorization object is C_CABN_GRP.

    Dear,
    The object and values what you are taking about is to restrict the charectristucs change,,,This will not restrict value assignment in material master classification view.
    This is required for not to allow chages to that chateristics in CT04.
    If you want the material master chareostics value assignment restoction then you need to restict material master claasification maintaince view through the auth object - M_MATE_STA
    the values are as below
    A     Work scheduling
    B     Accounting
    C     Classification
    D     MRP
    E     Purchasing
    F     Production resources/tools
    G     Costing

    P     Forecasting
    Q     Quality management
    S     Warehouse management
    V     Sales
    X     Plant stocks

    remove C from the value and assignthe role to user by whom you donot want the value not to be assigned

  • Values for Characteristics entered on Orders with Configurable Products

    Hello all,
    I have a system that has Configurable Products to be used in Sales Orders.  I have a requirement to provide the values stored against some characteriestics for an online report.  Can anyone point me in the direction of tables that hold the values entered for characteristics at the order level?
    Many thanks,
    Jon

    Hello,
    thanks for your answer.
    But I cannot restrict the values for each characteristic, I need to restrict it per material for each characteristic? So where can I do that?
    Thanks

  • Authorization values for 2 different queries

    Hi,
    I have an info object which is a authorisation relevent info object.
    I had used this info object in my 2 queries. Our requirement is when the user executes the query1, he should be able to see the data only for the authorized values which has been given in PFCG. But, when he executes the second query, there should be no check and query should display all the data irrespective of the values given in PFCG.
    Basically, Query1 should execute as per the PFCG values and the Query2 should execute bypassing the PFCG authorization values.
    Can anyone please help on this.
    Thanks
    Ramesh Ganji

    Hi,
    First create a role with the following authorizations (full)
    flight no - * (all accounts allowed)
    Define a query without any restrcitions/filter so that when the user 1 runs, he can find all the data from this query.
    Now define one more query wherein restrict flight no as 001
    Now when the user John runs this query, he can find only 001flight details
    In this way, just by defining only one role, you can achieve ur requirement by using restrictions at the report level.

    describe your problem.
    It does not really matter if you use standard batch input or IDOC, both will lead to the same result.
    However, object 0150 and CLFMAS are 2 different things.
    0150 is characteristics while CLFMAS is classification
    if you want classify with standard batch input then you should use 0130 instead of 0150.

  • Values for Characteristics in COPA

    Hello Gurus,
    If we have maintained the possible values for a characteristic in COPA, is it possible to have other values.  For example, in our scenario, Brand is a characteristic and we are deriving it from the classification view in Material Master. In that case, is it necessary to maintain Values for this Characteristic in COPA. Is there any necessity to maintain the possible values in separate Table.
    Please Advise.
    Thanks
    PM

    Hi Praveen
    when you create a WW char in COPA, you have 2 options (2 radio buttons) i.e. With own value Maintenance and w/o Own value Maintenance....
    If you choose with own value maintenance, then you need to maintain permitted char values (brand values) in KES1... If you choose "w/o own...", then you need not

    Hello,
    After you run your code, check transaction SU53 to see if any authorization check failed.

  • ECCS- CX0AA- Default Values for Characteristics

    Hello All,
    I have an issue in my project concerned with ECCS.
    We have maintained default values in CX0AA say we have maintained CCA (Sub Item Category) with a particular default value, now this default value has to be removed and even the Sub item Category CCA has to be removed from CX0AA. I tried it by the transaction code CX0A1, but I am unable to do it.
    Can any one please let me know how to remove this default value maintainance in complete from CX0AA.
    Thanks for the help in advance.

    or in my box: CX01->Master Data->(Characteristic) Default Values
    looks like an extension to add additional fields for consolidation below the standard SAP delivered ones for master data like items and subitems. it may well be dead end for development as EC-CS is being superseded by SEM-BCS and possibly some reincarnation of Business Objects.

  • Authorization values to auth object

    Hi,
    Please let me know how to find the possible authorization values for an custom authorization object..
    thanks.

    Hi,
    the definition (and also display) of possible values for activity can be performed in SU21.Doubleclick on the object->there is then a button in the popup: 'Permitted activities'.
    Depending on the values checked in the coding (statement 'authority_check') you can also maintain suggestions in SU24 for the corresponding transaction. So if you do not know any values at all, an analyze of the coding will be necessary.

  • Display multiple values for a characteristic for Equipment.

    Hi is there any way to display multiple values for characteristics of an equipment. Ex. An equipment (Presss) produces multiple ROH Parts. The class VN_TOOl with charactersistic "Part Produced" . When I run IH08 and execute the query, >Show , hide classification I can only get just one part instead of multiple parts. How do I get multiple values for the characteristic

    Yes Chandra,
    You are not getting it in IH08, but you are getting it in IE07. See this.

  • Extract authorization values

    Hi,
    Is there a way to extract specific authorization values for a particular user?
    In SUIM, using "Users by Complex Selection Criteria" will display all the authorization & values.  You then need to find that particular authorization, say "P_ORGIN" and go through each one of them to find the values assigned.  It is very tedious if the user have a lot of the "P_ORGIN" authorization assigned.
    I think in this case, SUIM is not the best way.
    Is there a way to quickly zoom into and look at all the values in just that particular authorization, in this case, "P_ORGIN"?
    Thanks

    If your focus is on HR authroizations one of the ways :
    SE16 - table name AGR_USERS
    The technical name will provide the assignment coming from organizational management.
    Take just those roles :
    use SE16 -  AGR_1251
    Which will give you an output export to excel filter on P_origin.
    If you are not using Organizational management:
    Then use SE16 - AGR_1251 find roles having P-origin
    get the role list and use AGR_USERS to find role to user relationship.
