Environment

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Cause

The 'Manage Automatic Payments' app authorization is controlled via business catalog SAP_FIN_BC_APAR_PAY_PC.

Resolution

  1. Open the app 'Maintain Business Users' and identify the Business Role assigned to the user.
  2. Navigate to the app 'Maintain Business Roles' and open the relevant role (for example, Accounts Payable Accountant).
  3. Go to Assigned Restriction Types --> General

    Maintain the following restriction values:

    FieldValue Example
    Account TypeD, K
    Company Code1010



    These restrictions ensure that the user is authorized to process transactions only for Company Code 1010 and the specified Account Types. 
  4. Under Company Code/Payment restrictions, maintain the following values as per business requirement:

    FieldExample Value
    Company Code1010
    Automatic Payment Type1, 2

    With this configuration, the user is allowed to schedule Parameters and Proposals only, while access to Schedule Payment can be restricted depending on the maintained values.
