2847030 - S4HC: Business Role's Restriction doesn't work in Business Partner Fiori Apps

• Display restrictions based on BP Role work as expected in Maintain Business Partner app but not in Business Partner Fiori Apps i.e. Manage Business Partner Master Data, Manage Customer Master Data or Manage Supplier Master Data.
• A business role has been restricted to view data based on a BP role but it is still possible to edit.

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

The BP Role Restriction type, designed to restrict users from creating or editing customers and suppliers, currently functions only within the "Maintain Business Partner Data" application. Please be aware that the Fiori apps do not currently accommodate the authorization settings configured via BP Role Restriction.

If the intention is to use the Fiori Apps in display mode the solution available is:

1. Remove the Maintenance Business Catalog such as SAP_CMD_BC_CUSTOMER_MAINT_PC from the business role and assign only display business catalog as mentioned below. Business Partner, Customer or Supplier Factsheet can be used to view the data in display mode only.

    The business catalog are as follows:

1. SAP_CMD_BC_BP_DISP_PC - Master Data - Business Partner Display
2. SAP_CMD_BC_CUSTOMER_DSP_PC - Master Data - Customer Display
3. SAP_CMD_BC_SUPPLIER_DSP_PC - Master Data - Supplier Display

To access data via factsheets, follow the steps below:

1. Go to search button and select business partner, customer or supplier from the dropdown.
2. Search for the business Partner.
3. Click on the business partner for detailed view.

If a Business Partner and/or Customer and/or Supplier and/or Employee master data record needs to be hidden from users without adequate authorisations then Authorisation Groups can be used. (See blog below)
