Introduction

Every SAP Customer that uses SAP ERP always use the Attachment Functionality/ SAP Workflow Capability. The Service for Object/Generic Object Service is heavily used acoss every Transaction code to check Attachment, Trigger Workflow and check Workflow Log. The blog covers the case where sometimes this button is completely hidden in SAP. You can also play a Prank on someone only for few hours 🙂

 

Solution

Login to SAP. First we go to ME23N Transaction Code.

Please note that the GOS button is missing here. In every Transaction Code you go the GOS(Generic Object Service) Button is missing.

Now we go to Transaction Code SU3

The below Parameter Id is Set. We will delete it and Save it

Now let us go to ME23N transaction Code. Wala the GOS button is back

 

For Sales Order Transaction Code you have to enable a special Parameter id which can be checked here

 

 

Conclusion

This can be used in both SAP ECC and SAP S/4HANA

      @ my side, the described solution is working for some users and not for others.

      I suspect that on top of the 2 parameters:

      For Procurement objects (PO in ME23N), Materials (MM03), Business Partenrs (BP , XD03)

      SGOSNOBUT X Do NOT display button 'Service for Object'

      => if X then will hide the service for objects button,
      => if blank (or even absent, then will hide service fro objects button

      OR

      SD_SWU_ACTIVE X Activate Workflow Box in VA02 & VA03

      for sales objects: sales orders (VA03), sales contracts (VA43), outbound deliveries (VL03N), invoice (VF03)

      ... I suspect that there should be also something in the security Authorization objects.

      Any idea of the security objects on top of the above users parameters (SU3).

      Thanks
