Restricting financial view
We'd like to limit the viewing of customer and vendor bank information to a specific set of users. Normally this is can be seen when using tcodes FK03, MK03, XK03. We do not want to limit the viewing of other screens using these tcodes. What's the best approach to hiding from some and allowing others to see it?

You have probably already gathered that you can control by the views accessible for the transaction through auth object "F_LFA1_APP". While this can restrict the financial view, it will not allow you to restrict specific fields within the view. If you need to secure beyond the capabilities of F_LFA1_APP you will have to use a user exit and assign an authorization group to each of the fields you want to restrict by.
