In this step, you define a sequence of profiles for each ALE system.

Perform this step for the object types that can have more than one profile:

  • Materials
  • Material BOMs
  • Document structures

When you define a sequence of profiles for an ALE system, each profile can only be followed by a profile that restricts the fields available. This prevents you from assigning an authorization that allows more extensive changes in this ALE system once an object has a subsequent status.

If you want to allow more extensive changes, you must do one of the following:

  • Distribute the object to another system, and assign a profile with more extensive change authorizations
  • Ask your system administrator to change the object status or the profile in Customizing

Example

Requirements

Before you can define sequences of profiles:

  • Profiles for the object types must be defined
  • The logical ALE systems for distributing the data must be defined

Standard settings

Recommendation

Activities

To define a sequence of profiles:

  1. Enter the object type. You can enter either material master (business object BUS1001) or material BOM (business object MAST).
  2. Enter the ALE system for which you want to define the sequence.
  3. In the Sequence field, enter the position of the profile in the sequence for this ALE system.
  4. Enter a change authorization profile.
  5. Save your entries.
