Removing authorization for a transaction, except if called fr om a workitem.

[Vostrovsky, Petr]

Hi Patrik,
The first point is: did you try it? Because calling transaction with skip
the first screen doesn't check authorization in some cases.
The socond point: The solution may be e.g. to define variant transaction,
disable to call it directly. After that you can call it from object method
only.
Best rgs.
