2736447 - Project Purchase Request Can Be Created By User That Do Not Have Proper Access Rights

Symptom

The user is able to create Project Purchase Request even though they do not have access to the Purchase Requests work center.

Environment

SAP Business ByDesign

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Go to Project Management work center.
  2. Go to Projects view
  3. Search for the relevant Project. 
  4. Click in Edit button. 
  5. Navigate to Products subtab.
  6. Select Create Purchase Request for any product. 

The Project Purchase Request can be created successfully. 

Cause

The work center views are interdependent. Since the user has access to work center PRO_PROJECTS, they will get access to all views inside Projects work center. Therefore automatically the user gets access to create Purchasing documents related to Project directly from the Project under Products subtab.

Resolution

It is not possible to restrict users from activities related to project when they are already assigned to the Projects work center.
