Definition

In Personnel Management, a distinction is made between two types of function code:
There are function codes with "maintaining" and others with "non-maintaining" attributes.

In table T77FC, "maintaining" function codes are selected by flagging processing type Maintenance.

If processing type Maintenance is flagged in table T77PR for a profile, it means that function codes classed as "maintaining" in table T77FC can also be executed for the authorized objects. (Set-up in Customizing via Environment -> User maintenance -> Structural authorization -> Profiles.)
