Hi,
what is mean by
Add field Vendor category as sensitive fields and add it for dual control(vendors)
Regard
Babu
Here system is asking you to define vendor category as sensitive fields and add it for dual control(vendors)
Go to this path
IMG-Financial Accounting-Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable-Vendor Accounts-Master Data-Preparations for Creating Vendor Master Data-Define Sensitive Fields for Dual Control (Vendors)
If you define a field in the customer/vendor master record as "sensitive", the corresponding customer/vendor account is blocked for payment if the entry is changed. The block is removed when a second person with authorization checks the change and confirms or rejects it.
Example
The alternative payee field has been defined as sensitive in the Customizing table. If the accounting clerk responsible changes the entry in this field in the customer/vendor master record, the account is blocked for the payment run until a second person with authorization confirms the change to the master data.

Hello babu,
Hi Babu,
You can use dual control to provide more security when changes are made to sensitive data in your customer and vendor master records.
Integration:This function can be used for changing customer master records (FI-AR) and vendor master records (FI-AP).
Prerequisites: You must define the required sensitive fields in the customer or vendor master record in Customizing (IMG) for Financial Accounting. To do so, choose Financial Accounting->Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable-> Customer Accounts->Master Records->Preparations for Creating Customer Master Records->Define Sensitive Fields for Dual Control.
You must be authorized to change master records. You also define authorizations in Customizing (IMG) for Financial Accounting. To do so, choose Financial Accounting->Financial Accounting Global Settings-> Maintain Profiles. The person who makes the changes is never allowed to confirm his or her own changes.
Features:You can define the required master data fields as sensitive in Customizing.
When an authorized accounting clerk changes a sensitive field in the customer or vendor master record (such as Alternative payee), the relevant account is automatically blocked for the payment run.
The account remains blocked until a second authorized person confirms the master data changes. However, it is still possible to make a further change to an account that is already blocked.
The second authorized person is informed of the changes by mail or by other means, and then uses the function Master records->Confirmation of change->Single (or ® List) to edit the changes.
If the second authorized person cannot confirm the change to the master data, the master data object is returned to the clerk. Where this happens, the reply contains an explanatory text requesting that the clerk alters his or her change, or resets the master data.
Hope I had been able to help you. Please assign points.
