Distributed maintenance for a responsibility role

[Dart, Jocelyn]

Hi Felix,
You assessment of the authority-check object PLOG is correct.
However you can also use HR structural authorisations to protect
maintenance of responsibilities (code RY) and roles (code AC).
HR structural authorisations should give you the level of control
you require.

Subject: Distributed maintenance for a responsibility role
 
 
I have an issue to present to the group: I am working in a
multi-company-code environment, where the maintenance of roles will be
distributed into different countries and different teams.
 
For several of workflows being developped here, I need to work with
responsibility roles. The ideal implementation would be to create the
responsibilities with a container containing the element "CompanyCode" among
the others.
 
Now here is are the issues:
        1-I have had a look at the authorization object for editing std
roles, and it seems no way to segregate on the role name. Am I correct ?
 
        2- If I am wrong, I will need to create the roles in a way that
helps me from segregate access to people from each company to maintain their
own part.
For example, if I give access to administrators of CCode 1000 to maintain
role ZX, how can I ensure that they will only make changes in the
responsiblities attached to that specific company code container value ?
 
What alternative is there ? Did anyone experience this already ?
