locking transaction

Question: hallo sap fans,

We have had an audit and they told us to lock critical transactions in the system and then lock transaction sm01.

We now realize that we want to unlock some transactions to do config work. But SM01 is locked.

Is there a way around this?

Answer:
You don't need to lock transactions to give an appropriate level of control over sensitive transactions. You can do this by being careful with your auths.

Not that this helps you.....

If I recall correctly you need to change field CINFO in table TSTC to 02 (from 22) for SM01. This is the lock indicator & setting to 02 should unlock the transaction.

You may be able to do it via SM30 but I'm not logged on at the moment. Worse case scenario - you could do it at the DB table level

You should then go and dig out the auditors documented recommendation to lock SM01 in prod and beat them around the head with it.

Cheers,

Al.

Answer:
Thanx Al.

The table change worked by looking at the code of SM01 to find the location of the setting.

We changed it, and now we debug the auditors
