How do I hide/limit the information from certain fields in a transaction for certain roles?

Hi,

I'm trying to find a way to limit the information a user sees in certain transaction.

For example, take transacton FNVS (cash flow in Loans Management). In there, an analyst should be able to see all the information. This includes customer name, address, date of birth, among more information including the cash flow. However, if an accountant goes into that transaction, we don't want him to be able to see the client information. He shouldn't see his/her name, nor the address. Everything the accountant should see is the cash flow.

I've tried to search for this in here and in google but found nothing.

Thanks in advance!

Eduardo García.

Hello Eduardo,

Best way is to create a report dedicated to these persons, else you will need to modify standard transaction or copy it to a specific one that you will adapt to your need (but it is not very recommanded).

Hi,

If you are looking for a standard solution. Here is what my idea is " check with Security team if they have the roles created at the field level or at the Transaction level. If it's at the Transaction level, then I guess you might have to customise the code. As Brice suggested it's not recommended."

If you are looking for custom solution. Follow the below steps.

1. Request your Security team to create the Authorisation objects and ask them to include the fields which are required for your requirement.

2. Identify the code which showing/hiding the fields on the screen. Create an enhancement point in the standard code.

3. Check for the Authority-Object (refer to SAP standard help for the syntax).

Hope it helps.

Cheers
