User cannot view costing data in MM03/MD04

[Former Member]

A user who used to have access to view the costing field in MM03/MD04 has lost the ability to display this data due to a role removal during a 'role consolidation' project. He still has access to the transactions just not the costing field he needs to perform his job. Does anyone know of a quick fix for this? I'm fairly new in my position as a Business Analyst for Production Planning and would appreciate any help with this.

Hello Nick,

You can first check one thing if the views are consistent per note 113966.

Please use the report ZRMMMSTAT from the note 113966.

If the view are fine then please check if the user has correct authorisation for object M_MATE_STA.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for this. I was able to see that he no longer had the authorization object and got with our SAP Security to follow up. It turns out that they had done this to the entire department and never reassigned the new roles they created to grant the access. I appreciate all the help!

Nick.

Hi Nicholas

User needs to run the transaction as he used to do in the past. When you reach the screen where the field should be displayed you should type /NSU53. This is the authorization trace, which shows which authorization object is missing for this user.

Your system admin should manage to include this missing object for the user.
