Encrypt/decrypt bank details data in vendor master record

[Former Member]

Hello all,

I need to be able to encrypt bank details data (i.e. bank key and account) in vendor master record before saving it to the database and subsequently decrypt this data when the payment program RFFOUS_T generates a file in ACH format to be sent to the bank for processing.

If anyone could point me in the right direction (i.e. link to SAP documentation or other resource), I'd really appreciate it.

Thank you,

Gene.

Thank you for responding. Looks like a good solution. I'll try it to see if it works.

Thank you Pablo. I'd like to test both - the CL_HARD_WIRED_ENCRYPTOR class in /people/kathirvel.balakrishnan2/blog/2006/11/21/encryption-decryption-of-data-using-abap and the function modules you recomend and see what works best.

Hi,

just for curiosity´s sake, if the purpose of the development is to hide vendor master data to certain users, why not using an AUTHORITY_CHECK or something similar?

Best regards.

Hi Pablo,

Sorry it took me so long to reply, but I was out of town for a few weeks.

I considered using an AUTHORITY_CHECK, but it'd only work if someone used a transaction code to view vendor master data (i.e. FK03, XK03, etc). A custom report can easily be written, which will bypass an AUTH check and display all bank data.

Thank you,

Gene.
