SAP Note 1516880 - Authorization check for generic table access (S_TABU_NAM)

Component : Data Browser -

Solution : https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1516880 (SAP Service marketplace login required)

Summary :
The SAP Note addresses an issue wherein transaction SE16 (Data Browser) cannot display or modify certain tables despite users having appropriate S_TABU_NAM authorization, due to lacking the necessary S_TABU_DIS authorization. This is rooted in the authorization system only recognizing S_TABU_DIS for generic table access until the enhancement with S_TABU_NAM for specific table-level checks. The solution involves importing a Support Package or manually implementing specific corrections, requiring updates to the SE16 transaction attributes and prior implementation of other notes.
