SIMG_CFMENUOLSDOB31 - Define and Assign Field Authorization Groups

In this menu option you create field groups used to group together fields which are handled identically with regard to authorization assignment. If a user has the authorization for one or more field groups, he/she can change all fields of this/these authorization group(s).

When dividing the fields into field groups, please note that the change authorization either applies to all or no fields of a group. On the other hand, no check is carried out when creating and displaying.

Authorizations for field groups are maintained using the object F_KNA1_AEN (Financial Accounting).

A user has the general authorization for maintaining customer master records in SD. Using the field group, this authorization can be controlled more precisely. It may define that a user may only change certain fields - namely, the fields of the field group.

For more information on the authorization objects in SD, see the section "Authorizations".

1. Check whether you can use the field authorization groups contained in the standard system.
2. Create a field authorization group by entering a numeric key with a maximum of two digits and a description for the field group.
3. Allocate the fields, which should be handled identically with regard to their authorization assignment, to the field group. A field can be allocated to several groups.
4. Create an authorization for the authorization object F_KNA1_AEN with the corresponding field group and then allocate the object and authorization to the possible authorization profiles.
