Re: Prevent user from changing authorisation list using edtobjautandass. commands

Hello Carsten,

The correct change is indeed to remove the object management rights from the
user within the authorisation list.

I did try that initially, but then option 3 within wrkmbrpdm on such a
source file would not run. However, F6 combined with F15 to copy the
contents of another member does work, and is therefore an acceptable
workaround to a straight member copy operation.

Kind regards,
