Hi Experts,

This is question is related to SAP R/3 FI - Asset Accounting module. We are in SAP version 4.6C.

We would like to have Plant (ANLZ-WERKS) and Cost Center (ANLZ-KOSTL) as input fields in transaction code AS01 (create asset master record), but as DISPLAY ONLY (NON-MODIFIABLE) fields in transaction code AS02 (change asset master record).

Once an asset master record is created and saved, we want the two fields ANLZ-WERKS and ANLZ-KOSTL to become non-modifiable.

We appreciate any guidance in this matter.

Thanks and regards

I'm not aware of any way to protect a field via field status variants dependent on the transaction code or processing mode. If you can't find a way to do that, I'd look at creating an exit routine and do the check yourself.
