Our services in the area of SAP authorizations
Excursus Special feature for authorizations for FIORI Apps under S/4HANA
If you do not have authorization e.g. for a transaction and you get a message that you are missing authorization, you can use transaction SU53 to analyze the missing authorization. This transaction shows the last failed authorization check, including the authorization objects and authorization fields.

When displaying or posting receipts in SAP Finance, are the standard eligibility checks insufficient? Use document validation, BTEs, or BAdIs for additional permission checks. The posting of documents, and often their display, is protected by standard permission checks; but they may not meet your requirements.

You can now assign transactions to these roles. Experience has shown that roles should remain application-specific and that a distinction between book or investing, changing and reading roles is also useful. There will be regular transactions used in multiple roles. You should not overestimate the often demanded freedom of redundancy. However, for critical transactions or transactions that are involved in a functional separation conflict, it is recommended that they be kept in a separate role. In general, roles should not contain too many transactions; Smaller roles are easier to maintain and easier to derive. Also, assigning them does not quickly lead to the problem that users have too many permissions. If you keep the necessary functional separations in place, you have already prepared them as a takeaway.

A red symbol will not be used in the eligibility tests in the EEA, as the rating has to be carried out individually for each enterprise. There are also different requirements within the system landscape, e.g. on production or development systems. The EWA is deliberately not customisable, as it is designed to alert customers to SAP-rated settings.

During go-live, the assignment of necessary authorizations is particularly time-critical. The "Shortcut for SAP systems" application provides functions for this purpose, so that the go-live does not get bogged down because of missing authorizations.

Understanding the structure and functioning of the system is especially important for IT administration. It is not for nothing that "SAP Basis Administrator" is a separate professional field. On the page www.sap-corner.de you will find useful information on this topic.


In any case, check the Reset Index box in the SUIM_CTRL_CHG_IDX report!

So much information... how can you keep it so that you can find it again when you need it? That's what Scribble Papers is great for.


As soon as you transport these eponymous permission profiles into a common target system, the profile will be overwritten by the newly imported profile and inconsistencies will arise.
