Definition

A domain (technical domain) describes the value range and formal attributes of a field.

The domain is used to define the value range of a field with formal specifications, such as format and length, by defining fixed values or a value table.

Note

Different fields which are technically the same can be combined to form a domain. Fields which are linked by a reference to the same domain cannot be changed independently of each other.

Use

You can maintain the assignment of domains to Dictionary authorization groups.

This allows you to restrict authorization for Dictionary maintenance of individual domains to a specific group of users/developers.

Procedure

  1. Mark with a cross, select object from the menu or press PF2.
  2. Generic entry of the object name and/or authorization group.
  3. Select PF key maintenance.
  4. Enter the authorization group in the relevant field.
  5. Save and press PF3 Back.
  6. Check authorization by carrying out a maintenance test.

Dependencies

You require authorization to maintain the associated tables TDDAx. If you do not have this authorization, the system branches automatically to display mode. There is also a lock function that prevents parallel assignment of authorization classes and Dictionary maintenance of the same objects. If this function is in place, only display mode is possible.

You can only enter allowed authorization groups. These are maintained under menu point Permitted_groups.
