[former_member1283268]

Hi All

My reuirement is that I want to authorise a user for transaction ML81N for viewing service entry sheets but he/she should not be able to create a service entry sheet.Is there any way around by which we can have authorisation control in transaction ML81N.

Why can't you use ML81 to display service entry sheet ? or else provide authorization for t.code ML82 to display SES.

Hi Satish,

When a user tries to perform a service entry the following

authorization objects are checked:

M_BEST_EKO (purchasing organisation)

M_BEST_EKG (purchasing group)

M_BEST_BSA (document type)

M_BEST_WRK (plant).

The authorization check includes a check of the purchase org/group etc

and a check on the activity performed. More technically this means that

the authorization object contains two fields: one field containing the

purchasing org/group etc and another field containing the activity type

For maintaining and accepting entrysheets we have the activity types

'75' and '76'. The activity types for creating and changing purchase

orders are '01' and '02'.

Thus it is possible to assign a user the authorization for service

entry without having the authorization to maintain purchase orders by

specifying the activity types accordingly.

This is the description of the two activities.

76 - maintain service entry sheets

75 - accept service entry sheets.

You need this authorizations if you are using service POs and want to

create, change or accept the corresponding service entry sheets.

I hope this helps!

Hi Armida

Thanks for your reply it was really very useful but I still have some query.If I give authorisation for activity 75 only then I am not able to release service entry sheet (SES) through ML81N.to release SES through Ml81N I need to have authorisation for activity 76.Now if I give authorisation for activity 76 then I am able to create SES thorugh ML81N.

Please suggest a wayaround so that I can use ML81N for only display and release of SES and no creation of SES.
