Summary :
This SAP Note discusses features and authorization enhancements for layout management in the ALV list item display, specifically in SAP List Viewer. Users can modify layouts by adding fields, incorporating additional header information, and saving or administering these layouts. However, standard functionalities lack user-specific restrictions, necessary for safeguarding sensitive document fields and ensuring layout modifications are restricted to authorized individuals. As a remedy, a support package and advanced correction are recommended which include creating a new authorization object 'ZZ_IT_ALVF' to replace the standard 'F_IT_ALV', allowing further control over individual maintenance activities. Detailed authorization activities are described, ensuring precise user role allocations for layout management.
