Documentation

Definition

Element in the authorization concept, e.g. activity, company code, or material group.

Use

Authorization objects and authorization checks contain fields for quantities that are checked to verify user authorizations.

Dependencies

An authorization object used for a BOPF business object must follow a specific authorization field pattern regarding the first 2 fields. The first field must be ACTVT (activity) and the second field must be BO_SERVICE (service name, e.g. name of a BOPF action). Beginning with the third field, application-specific fields can be configured. In transaction BOBF only the application-specific authorization fields can be used for mapping to data fields.

Example

For more information about the BOPF authorization concept, see the class documentation of the library class /BOBF/CL_LIB_AUTHORITY_CHECK.
