is there a way to restrict the view of a vendor in MD04?

[former_member526582]

Hi Experts,

Is there a way to restrict access/view for specific vendors/suppliers. For example, a specific supplier vendor should not have access to see the stock overview(MD04)? or will not be able access the available qty. button?


Thanks and Regards,

The Tcode MD04 checks for auth object M_MTDI_ORG

which restricts for only:

MRP Controller

Plant

Acctivity types in Materials

So this cannot be restricted via authorization concept normally.

However you may take the help of your basis /ABAPERs to explore the user exits /BADIs of the related program.

Or your ABAPERS may help you in this regard by developing some customized reports to restrict the same.

Hi,

You may check to create a new transaction variant for MD04 in SHD0 and hide the button which you want to control. Now, you can assign the variant for the specific user using variant groups - refer the doc:

Create Transportation Variant

Variant Groups

Hi,

Seems the requirement is not clear. Do you want the MD04 access to be restricted for a specific user ID? If so, you can control it with authorization roles. Else, please elaborate.

Hi Prasoon,
They wanted a specific user of a certain supplier/vendor group can only have limited access in MD04 like not accessing the stock overview view or not to see the details of different info/details of a different supplier/vendor.
