Wild card "*" usage in the authorization role

Hi All,
I am an ABAP consultant(not a security pro, so please put up with any incorrect wordings), and working on a requirement where i need to check if the user has access to particular values entered on a screen field. For example if the text entered on the field is ABCDEFGUS, i want to check on the last two characters to see if user has access to enter values ending with US.
So i create an authorization object...etc, and in the role i enter US as the value, but now when i run through the code using AUTHORITY-CHECK against the authority object. The authorization passes for all the values i enter, ex: ABCDEFGUK* - this should have failed as i have maintained *US.
Note: but when i maintain the value as ???????US in the role, it works as expected.
All the help and pointers, towards this would be appreciated.
Regards,
Chen

So you will maintain value like #US in your roles and just before authorization check you will amend string.
Hi Martin,
Have you ever tried this and used it in production?
Changing the value sent to the AUTHORITY-CHECK is easy but very intrusive to the data in the program which might be used else where.
Changing the value at runtime which the AUTHORITY-CHECK expects to find is a different ball game (also in performance).
I have done some experimental stuff with this in sandboxes using STATICS in a wrapper for fixed lengths but cannot recommend it at all. I cannot see it ever flying in an AUTHORITY-CHECK statement construct.
It is also completely unauditable to any authorization analysis tool...
Hang on a second... if SPRO can do this then we can as well --> I think we have a winner here!
Cheers,
Julius

Wild Card issue

Hi,
I have a noticed a weird thing with wild cards in sap standard table PROJ.
We have entries for 23* , 24* & 25* in SAP table PROJ. When I try these individually everything is working as required.
When I enter 23* to 24* i am getting all entries for 23* and 24*...
but when i try 23* to 25* I am not getting entries with 25..* but i am getting 23* & 24*.
I thought it issue would be with conversions exit from user parameters.. I tried uncheck and check it is not working.
What is wrong here?

I tried 24* to 25* -I am only getting 24* records....
I tried 23* to 24* -I am only getting 23* records....
I tried 23* to 26* -I am getting 23, 24 & 25* records....So it is chopping off last selection.

Characteristic wild card in report painter

Dear experts..
I am developing a report painter for PS cost element report with structure CCSS.
I want to create rows with dynamic characteristic and I am thinking of using wildcard in the characteristic variable.
What I am trying to achieve is basically to filter WBS only for those which consist "ABC" in the project number (ABC in POSID). I know it can be achieved in the selection screen but I want the selection screen to be as generic as possible and only filter it at row level.
In the normal functional report we can use '*' as the wildcard but it can not be used in characteristic variable.
Appreciate any enlightenment on how to use variable or set to be able to do this.
Thanks in advance

Hi Alexei,
Welcome to SDN.
You need to give the exact file name. System can not determine file name with wild card.
Hope this will help.

Enhancing F4 Search Help Issue - Standard Component

Hello All,
We have a requirement in SRM to customize couple of standard Search helps attached to the Webdynpro components. As such I know the concept of how we can handle this requirement but hitting an issue.
Standard Working scenario -
1) Standard Structure available with multiple fields. Two fields that are of our interest are SH_VALUE and SH_VALUE_LABEL.
2) Standard Search help for this being used has fields VALUE and VALUE_LABEL.
3) In the Structure the both the fields SH_VALUE and SH_VALUE_LABEL are mapped to the Search help VALUE and VALUE_LABEL.
4) In the WD component the node is mapped to the standard structure.
Running the application and the picking up the values from F4 on the SH_VALUE field will return its corresponding value and also map the SH_VALUE_LABEL field with the Label from the F4 since the structure and Search help mapping are there.
So far good when its standard.
Issue I am facing -
We need to modify this standard search help to customize our needs.
1) Did a Copy of the standard Search help and then modified to suit our needs. The output structure of the search is still the same as the standard one.
2) Did a Post Exit in the WD component to call our custom search help through the below code -
data lo_nd_attrib type ref to if_wd_context_node.
data lo_nd_attrib_info type ref to if_wd_context_node_info.
lo_nd_attrib = wd_context->path_get_node( path = `ATTRIBUTES_DATA.ATTR_DTLS_MULT` ).
lo_nd_attrib_info = lo_nd_attrib->get_node_info( ).
lo_nd_attrib_info->set_attribute_value_help( name = 'SH_VALUE' value_help_mode = '121' value_help = 'Z_ORG_ATTR' ).
lo_nd_attrib_info->set_attribute_value_help( name = 'SH_VALUE_LABEL' value_help_mode = '121' value_help = 'Z_ORG_ATTR' ).
Running the application just returns the SH_VALUE field but does not get the data for the SH_VALUE_LABEL.
Is there something wrong in the way I am calling the Custom Search help or should I need to approach this differently?
Thanks,
Nagarajan.

Hi Nagarajan,
Well, you are trying to set the search help to both attributes ( sh_value, sh_value_label) individually and it is having no link between these two attributes
i.e. once you select a value from search help of SH_VALUE, its no where linked that the other details to be passed to SH_VALUE_LABEL.
We generally, do the linking of attributes to search help parameters at structure level as below
So, if you need the same behaviour, then you need to assign the Zsearch help at strucuture field SH_VALUE and link the parameters to both fields SH_VALUE & SH_VALUE_LABEL
In case, if find it not possible to to this way,
You need to populate the value of field SH_VALUE_LABEL upon selection of value from search help of SH_VALUE.
i.e. by registering the search help selection event to an OnEnter action and write the logic to populate the value to SH_VALUE_LABEL
Please refer the below link
Automatically Trigger onEnter event after selecting value from the Value Help(F4 Help)
Hope this helps you.
Regards,
Rama

Standard ACL and wild card mask

If The following commands were entered on a router:
Router(config)# access-list 2 deny 172.16.5.24
Router(config)# access-list 2 permit any
What can be concluded about this set of commands?,,,(i.e wild card mask has not been used with deny statement),,,Does a router accept it ? I do not router right now to do practical test

Hello,
The effect of this access-list would be to deny just the host 172.16.5.24 and to permit everything else. The router would accept this command line.
The lack of a wildcard in this case means that the IP address is a host address. The following access-list statements result in identical behaviour, for example:
access-list 1 permit ip 172.16.5.24
access-list 1 permit ip 172.16.5.24 0.0.0.0
access-list 1 permit ip host 172.16.5.24
Hope that helps - pls rate the post if it does.

Alert Rule - not working. Wild Card character issue

Hi All,
I have a requirement where I need to trigger alerts for mapping failures
of all the interfaces whose namespace is urn:abc.com:odna* or urn:abc.com.odna*. (in the first instance, there is dot before odna and int he second instance, a colon before odna )
So to suit both the cases, I gave urn:abc.comodna in the Alert Rule.
It worked before. But now its not working.
Then when i changed it to urn:abc.com:odna* it works again. i really dont understand how it worked before and why it fails now.
What is the reason for the unpredicatable behaviour of WildCard Character based Alert Rules?
Should Wild Card Characters be avoided completely?

Hey
Just create two separate alert rules for the same alert category
one for urn:abc.com:odna* and another for urn:abc.com.odna*.
but before that please make sure that "Suppress multiple alerts of this rule" box is unchecked.
Also please check SAP Note 913858
Thanx
Aamir

Persona Q Wild Card Premium Edition Preorder mishap

I placed an order for Persona Q Wild Card Premium Edition Preorder on 07/05/2014 for $49.99. Today, the standard edition came in the mail instead of the premium edition that I ordered. I'm wondering if I can get it exchanged for the premium edition in stores or just get ship the item back for the premium edition. I didn't get any notification that the order change when it shipped. I've read the other posts on this issue already and just want information on how to fix this issue. please help
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hello lumiere-
I apologize for the lateness of this reply; we are currently backlogged on the forums and trying to catch up. As you may have surmised from this thread and others around Persona Q, there was initially an issue around the Wild Cards edition being listed incorrectly, which meant that some customers received the standard edition when they got their pre-orders.
We do have the Wild Cards edition available for order on BestBuy.com here and some stores may potentially have copies left. I would recommend returning your standard edition, if unopened and either exchanging it they have it in store or ordering online if they do not. I also have some additional information for you regarding your pre-order, so I’ll send you a private message with those details.

Persona Q Wild Card Premium Edition Preorder

I placed an order for Persona Q Shadow of the Labyrinth Wild Cards Premium Edition 3DS on 7/05/2014. Nearing the release of the game I decided to check on its status to see when it would be shipping and noticed that it was linking to the wrong version in my order history ( regular version, not Wildcard that I ordered ) I emailed BestBuy 11/03 asking why it was linking to the wrong version in my order history and I received the following response:
"Hi Michael, Thank you for choosing Best Buy. I understand you would like to check the status of your order. I'll be happy to assist you. I was able to locate your order BBYXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX Persona Q Shadow of the Labyrinth The Wild Cards Premium Edition Nintendo 3DS using the email address [email protected] you used, and it appears that your pre-order status is pending release and scheduled to be shipped on December 2 2014."
The response confirmed that I would be receiving the Wild Card Edition and when it would ship but didn't address why it was linking to the wrong item. I sent the following email back 11/07:
"I'm confused as to why it says "Atlus Persona Q Shadow of the Labyrinth The Wild Cards Premium Edition Nintendo 3DS" in my order history but when I click on it it goes to the wrong version of the game. Do you have any idea why its doing that?"
I then received the following response on 11/07:
"After researching the issue, it appears that we have a system error issue with our Online Website. It's a site-wide issue and our technicians have already been made aware of it. We assure you our technicians are working full-time to immediately resolve the issue. We want you to know we have the most competent and technically gifted engineers working hand-in-hand in fixing the problem. Therefore, I should not take more than 24 hours for the said issue to be rectified."
I waited 24 hours and checked and nothing had changed. As I wasn't receiving any help from BestBuy email support after numerous attempts I had to look online to find out what the issue was. After doing some searching I found other customers online had the same issue and were told by BestBuy customer service that BestBuy made a mistake with the SKU and that they were issuing $30 gift cards so people could get the correct version that they ordered. I emailed BestBuy back with this information 11/17 and was told:
"Our technicians are still working to resolve it and we don't have an approximate time on when will it be resolve."
and that I would receive a $10 gift card. For some reason the email support people seemed to have no idea about the SKU mistake ( even after I looked it up online and explained it to them ) or that BestBuy was sending $30 gift cards to customers so they could receive the item they ordered. While I appreciate any gift card a business offers me it was a bit confusing why everyone else was issued a $30 gift card ( http://forums.bestbuy.com/t5/Gaming-Support/Persona-Q-Premium-Edition-Preorder/td-p/838319 / CAG ) and those customers didn't have BestBuy mistakenly confirm that the Wildcard Edition would be sent to them.
This has been extremely frustrating as I was erroneously told that I would receive the Wild Card Premium Edition, my order was changed without me receiving any notification at all, I was given the wrong information over and over and over again until I ultimately had to search online to find out what the issue was. I apologize for the length of this post but I needed to explain what happened and I wasn't getting any help at all from email support. I just want to either receive the game I ordered or a code / gift card so I can replace my order. Please help.

Hi mike1942,
I can see why you'd be concerned! Details on this issue have been provided to our phone and e-mail support teams, so it's disheartening to hear of the difficulties and conflicting information you've encountered in trying to find a solution.
When this title was initially made available for pre-order on BestBuy.com, the standard edition was incorrectly listed as the Wild Cards edition. The SKU number was correct though, and our merchant team has since made sure SKU #7377002 properly reflects the standard edition online.
I've sent you some information, so please make sure to check your private messages when you can. To check your PMs, simply sign into the forum and then click on the letter icon in the upper right-hand corner of the page.

File adapter wild card not working

Hi Gurus,
My file adapter seems to have issues with me
This adapter do not obey me when I specify wild cards. I have tried * , ? and also "Adavnced selection of source file" but no use. Although, he is a perfect gentleman when I specify complete file names.
Could you please suggest how to tame him?
Regards,
AV.

Hi,
this is what SAP Help says about it:
file.sourceFileName=<filename>
Specify the name of the file that you want to process.
The name can contain a placeholder (*) at any point, so as to be able to select a list of files for processing.
The following are valid examples for filename:
myFile.txt
my*.txt
*.txt
File.
File.*
myle.
Names that comprise more than two parts are also permitted.
Hope it helps.

Patrick

How to use wild card character in input field

Hi
I'm creating model in which the Purchase Order information need to be entered in Input Field.

Let say in input field i gave PO order as 20* then it'll search for all the PO's which starts from 20.
Could you please share some documents/guidelines, for this issue
Thanks and Regards
Puneet

Hi,
You can use the wild card char in the input box.please try below steps.
1.Check whether the input string has ' * ' char using "CONTAINS(text,pattern)" operation.
2.If yes, Replace the ' * ' with space by "REPLACE(text,pattern,repstr)" operation.->consider this result as input2
3.Now , Have a Filter from ur webservice(which gives your Purchase Order information )
and filter it by the condition " BEGINS(WSField,input2)"
the Final expression in the filter will be "_=IF(CONTAINS(input,""),BEGINS(HelpWSField,REPLACE(input,"\","")),true)_"
Hope it helps.

How to prevent the use of wild cards in select-option

Hello experts,
Is it possible to prevent the use of wild cards in a select-option? If yes, how is it done please?
I have a
SELECT-OPTIONS: o_comp FOR dbtab-field OBLIGATORY DEFAULT 'FI'.
and, I want to prevent the users for giving in some thing like FI* with the wildcard bc it would lead to dump.
I want an error message to display and prevent the users for making such entry.
Please I need your help and I would be very grateful.
Thanks
Nadin

You have to use SELECT_OPTIONS_RESTRICT to restrict input allowed. Call this FM in INITIALIZATION or SELECTION-SCREEN OUPUT sections.
Sample :
TYPE-POOLS: sscr.
INITIALIZATION.
* Restrict SELECT-OPTIONS
PERFORM restrict_select.
FORM restrict_select.
DATA: restrict TYPE sscr_restrict,
        opt_list TYPE sscr_opt_list,
        *** TYPE sscr_***.
* Défine select-options modes (aka option list)
* - ALL standard - all options allowed
CLEAR opt_list.
MOVE 'ALL' TO opt_list-name.
MOVE 'X' TO: opt_list-options-bt,
               opt_list-options-cp,
               opt_list-options-eq,
               opt_list-options-ge,
               opt_list-options-gt,
               opt_list-options-le,
               opt_list-options-lt,
               opt_list-options-nb,
               opt_list-options-ne,
               opt_list-options-np.
APPEND opt_list TO restrict-opt_list_tab.
* - EQU only equality allowed (list of values)
CLEAR opt_list.
MOVE 'EQU' TO opt_list-name.
MOVE 'X' TO opt_list-options-eq.
APPEND opt_list TO restrict-opt_list_tab.
* Affect modes to parameters or block of parameters
* ALL by default
CLEAR ***.
MOVE: 'A'          TO ***-kind,
        '*'          TO ***-sg_main,
        'ALL'        TO ***-op_main.
APPEND *** TO restrict-***_tab.
* EQU to internal material number
CLEAR ***.
MOVE: 'S'          TO ***-kind,
        'S-MATNR'    TO ***-name,
        'I'          TO ***-sg_main, " no exclusion
        'EQU'        TO ***-op_main. " only value list
APPEND *** TO restrict-***_tab.
* Call FM
CALL FUNCTION 'SELECT_OPTIONS_RESTRICT'
       EXPORTING
            restriction = restrict
       EXCEPTIONS
            OTHERS      = 1.
ENDFORM.                    " restrict_select
In the sample, only select-options for matnr is restricted to single value list.
For your request build a mode with all options except "pattern" ones : CP and NP.
