  • SAP Tcode: SO21 - Maintain PC Work Directory
    
    Overview: 
    SO21 is a transaction code used in SAP to maintain the PC Work Directory. This directory is used to store and manage all the programs, data, and other information related to a user's work. It is an important tool for organizing and managing user data. 
    
    Functionality: 
    The SO21 transaction code allows users to create, edit, and delete entries in the PC Work Directory. It also allows users to view the contents of the directory, as well as move or copy files from one directory to another. Additionally, users can assign access rights to different users or groups of users. 
    
    Step-by-step How to Use: 
    1. Enter the SO21 transaction code into the command field. 
    2. Select the “Create” option from the menu bar. 
    3. Enter a name for the new directory and select a parent directory if desired. 
    4. Select “Save” to create the new directory. 
    5. To edit an existing directory, select it from the list of directories and then select “Edit” from the menu bar. 
    6. Make any desired changes and then select “Save” to save them. 
    7. To delete a directory, select it from the list of directories and then select “Delete” from the menu bar. 
    8. Confirm that you want to delete the directory by selecting “Yes” when prompted. 
    9. To assign access rights, select a directory from the list of directories and then select “Access Rights” from the menu bar. 
    10. Select which users or groups of users should have access to this directory and then select “Save” to save your changes. 
    
    Other Recommendations: 
    It is recommended that users regularly review their PC Work Directory to ensure that all entries are up-to-date and that access rights are properly assigned. Additionally, it is important to keep track of which directories contain sensitive information so that access rights can be appropriately restricted.
