Screen Personas: No Authorization for F4-help text input box

Former Member

Hi

We have places an F4-help input box on an SMEN Flavor screen in order to look-up sales orders.
I have entered VBAK as table and VBELN as table-field.

When I try to get get input help from table VBAK using the F4-help button I get the error message "User is not authorized to access table VBAK".
When I look up in SU53 I find the Authorization Object S_USER_PRO.  Must my user have Authorization for object S_USER_PRO?

I entered VBELN at table field and saved. Next time I go in change mode, VBELN as table field is gone (table VBAK is still there). Why?


Later on I will develop a search help and put that in instead of table VBAK. Is that possible and does that require same Authoriation as for a table?

Thanks and regards
Kim

Hi Kim,

your question is very technical and it is possible that you have discovered a bug in Personas. To verify this I kindly ask you to open an incident on support component BC-PER. Then we will analyze your problem as soon as possible. In case we have to provide a fix we will post our results for all other users here.

Hi Dominik

I got an SAP_ALL Authorization but despite that system still returned the error message for missing user authorization for table VBAK when I tried to look up sales order table in Screen Personas using F4 input help.

Hi Dominik

I await our Basis to upgrade our Screen Personas SP01 to SP02.


In the meantime.
You may confirm to me that it is possible to enter a table/search-help name in an F4-help input field and then get it working in screen personas?

Hi

When I set the VBAK as table and * for fieldname in the F4-Whitelist only the VBELN field (Order No.) is returned by the Screen Personas help-input function. This is obviously not enough info for the user to select Order No. How can we in simple way provide more table-fields in the F4-help list?

I also tried to set a search help in the whitelist but that didn`t work. Nothing was returned at all.

In this case, the possible value list is realized using a check table. Usually this won't give you a nice list of the values. If you want to have the same search help that's used in VA03 for the order number, you'll have to whitelist a field that uses the same search help which is VMVA. You can get this from the technical information for the VA03 order number screen field.

There are about 180 table / structure fields using the same search help, pick one that you like. For instance, whitelisting table QALS and field LS_KDAUF then using that to create the new Personas field will give you the search help you are looking for.

Hello Kim,

Even i was getting the same error.

I solved this error by simple step.

In Transaction /N/PERSONAS/ADMIN   -> To get to the F4 Help Whitelist maintenance, use the menu path Goto -> Whitelists -> F4 Help Whitelist. It opens the following screen:

Enter the Table name and field name

For example : Table name = VBAK , field name as VBELN.

Now goto your Screen personas and add this field and table name in your Text box with F4.

Test it. It might work.
