Authorization object for customized tcode

Question: Hi all,

I have customized table for data maintenance to be allowed for access only for user controlled by sales area level using autho object V_VBAK_VKO. We wont give SM30 to the user, so I have created new tcode for the customized table.

My basis advises me to create customised program to call the customized table and include the above autho object in the program.

Is these the way to do authorization for customized table?

thanks alots

Answer:
THere are several ways one is a customized program the others are

1. Parameterized tcode to table (see tcode OB52 as an example) but it only contorls on the auth group you add to the table via SE11, SUCU or SE54.
2. see 1 and add S_TABU_LIN configuration to control access to a field in the table.

Answer:
You can authorize custom table just like you authorize SAP tables -- by entering an authorization group for the table in table TDDAT and assigning an authorization for the authorization group using table TDDAT.

Answer:
I meant using S_TABU_DIS

If you don't want to go down the route of S_TABU_LIN, you can create a number of tcodes calling views with selection conditions returning the values you want for each. On a large scale, S_TABU_LIN looks pretty interesting.
