Distributed maintenance for a responsibility role

Hi Felix,
Forget about the HR authorisation object.  You need HR structural
authorisations - this lets you restrict access down to the object id
level if you wish.
Look in the IMG (transaction SPRO) under Basis > Business Management >
Workflow > Authorisation Management.
Regards,
Jocelyn.

Hi Jocelyn,
 
Thanks for your answer. I have turned to the HR authorization object and I
cannot find what I need. The only object checked by authority-check (version
46C) is PLOG.
Here are the 6 fields it has:
 
INFOTYPE        ISTAT           OTYPE           PLVAR           PPFCODE
SUBTYP
1001            1               AC              01              DISP
-
 
=> Enables to view AC roles, it is either all of then or nothing at all.
There is no way to filter (not that I see...am I wrong ?) on name or AC
number, etc.
 
INFOTYPE        ISTAT           OTYPE           PLVAR           PPFCODE
SUBTYP
1001            1               AC              01              AEND
-
 
==> Enables to modify (edit) AC roles, it is either all or none.
 
Jocelyn, did I miss something ?
