The se16 T-code

This code is used to view table data. This is a high data security risk since the user can access confidential data. It also causes performance hit when large tables are viewed. This tcode must be restricted to few users or firefighter ids.

You can see the initial screen. Here we enter the table name to be viewed and hit the enter button and click on the view data button
.



You will see the next selection fields appear as shown below. YOu have to enter your selection criteria so that only selected data can be view. Normally almost all tables are large in size so its better to view only selected data. IF you try to view the whole data of the table it takes long time to display and performance of the server get s hit .


S_TABUS_DIS is checked for authorization of SE16. One can give display activity ( 03) only to and end user for this tcode and authorization group DICERBLS field is also checked. give 03 activity and authorization group which the user belongs to for restricting access.

The user must be in a particular USER group like FI to view FI tables or CO to view CO tables. Without user group assignment one cannot see the respective tables. These user groups are maintained using tcode SUGR. These user groups are different from the logon user groups which has entirely different purpose
