Question:
Dear experts,
I am facing an issue while defining authorization on Business Transaction (in CRM) specific for Opportunity.
I need to :
1) allow users to see "Opportunity" as an option in the locator combo.
2) allow users to see only those opportunties in which they are linked.
I have configured auth object CRM_ORD_OP (Own documents) to setup point 2. For setting up point 1, I realize that I have to configure auth object CRM_OPP. When I do so, the restrictions applied in CRM_ORD_OP are not used.
Any ideas, what I am doing wrong...
Thanks for your help,
Cheers,
Nishant
Answer:
Before starting with authorizations in CRM, I hope you have read the specific documentation on help.sap.com
There are several specific CRM related help topics on those issues, such as for
-Business partner security
-Product related security
-Marketing & Campaign management security
- Transaction Processing security (this is what YOU should read for your specific question!)
Authorizations within transaction processing follow typically a specific Authorization check FLOW!
If you know how this works, than you should be able to solve this question!
kind regards
