Bypass Excel-based Permissions Traps
Use usage data for role definition
You use the RSUSR010 report and you do not see all transaction codes associated with the user or role. How can that be? The various reports of the user information system (SUIM) allow you to evaluate the users, permissions and profiles in the SAP system. One of these reports, the RSUSR010 report, shows you all executable transactions for a user, role, profile, or permission. Users of the report are often unsure about what this report actually displays, because the results do not necessarily correspond to the eligible transactions. Therefore, we clarify in the following which data are evaluated for this report and how these deviations can occur.

The convenience of configuring and evaluating the Security Audit Log has been improved. For this purpose, the maximum number of marked messages in the detail selection has been increased to 40 events, a forward navigation for the displayed objects has been added and the details selection in transaction SM20 has been supplemented with the technical event names. You will find the corrections and an overview of the required support packages in SAP Note 1963882.
Custom Permissions
Well-maintained suggestion values are extremely helpful for creating PFCG roles. We will give you a rough guide as to when it makes sense to maintain suggestion values. SAP provides suggested values for creating PFCG roles in the USOBT and USOBX tables via upgrades, support packages, or hints. These suggestion values include suggested values for permissions of SAP default applications that can be maintained in PFCG roles. Suggestion values are supplied not only for transaction codes, but also for Web Dynpro applications, RFC function blocks, or external services. You can customise these suggestion values to suit your needs. However, this does not happen in the supplied tables, but in the USOBT_C and USOBX_C customer tables. Care is carried out in the transaction SU24.

You can still assign roles and profiles to a user if you have the appropriate permissions to these activities. As long as no user group is associated with the user, permissions for any user group will be sufficient. If you assign a user group to the newly created user, all the checks will be repeated for that user group.

"Shortcut for SAP systems" is a tool that enables the assignment of authorizations even if the IdM system fails.

SAP Basis is the foundation of any SAP system. You can find a lot of useful information about it on this page: www.sap-corner.de.


For example, this could be relevant for the tax audit and final reports or performance critical.

A note box in which data of all kinds can be quickly filed and retrieved. This is what Scribble Papers promises. At first, the program looks very spartan. But once a small structure is in place, you realise the great flexibility of this little helper.


The SAP_NEW profile is basically designed to bridge the release differences in eligibility checks after an upgrade and ensure that the established business processes remain executable after an upgrade.
