This function helps you to manage the following objects in
specification management
:
Queries
Sets of hits
Output variants
Inheritance templates
Sets of rules
The objects are managed as group entries in
groups. Depending on the settings in Customizing for
Basic Data and Tools
, groups are divided into
public and
private groups. Group entries in public groups are displayed to all users in the
group overview. Group entries in private groups are seen only by the user that created the group entry.
The groups are also protected by authorizations. For more information, see the IMG activities
Specify Groups
and
Specify Group Trees and Assign Groups
and the documentation for the authorization object C_EHSO_GRP.
In the IMG activity
Specify Groups
you specify the
maximum number of objects. In public groups this specifies the maximum number of group entries of one type that can be stored in the group. In private groups the maximum number of objects specifies the maximum number of group entries of one type that each user can store in the group.
The following table shows a selection of the functions that are available to you in the group overview. For some functions you must first switch to edit mode in the group overview by choosing
with the quick info text
