To use the trace data from the USOB_AUTHVALTRC table, first go to the change mode and then either click the SAP Data button or select Object > Add Objects from Trace > Local. The found authorization objects are imported from the table, but are not yet marked with any suggestion values. To maintain the suggestion values, click the Trace button. In the window that opens, select one of the new authorization objects and then select Trace > Permissions Trace > Local. The checked permission values will now be displayed. To apply these values, select Y Yes in the Suggest Status combo box and select the values you wish to display in the right pane of the window. Then click Apply. After confirming your entries, you confirm the Permissions field maintenance in the Permissions proposal maintenance by clicking on the green checkmark, so that the status of the Permissions object is green (maintained). Also continue with other authorization objects.

The context-dependent authorizations combine the general and structural authorizations and avoid situations like in the example above. The context-dependent authorizations can be separated so finely that a separation of functions can be made possible without any gaps. Basically, with context-dependent authorizations, the authorization objects are supplemented by structural authorization profiles. This means that authorizations are no longer assigned generally, but only for the objects in the authorization profile. The use of context-dependent authorizations means that the familiar P_ORGIN authorization objects are replaced by P_ORGINCON and P_ORGXX by P_ORGXXCON. The new authorization objects then contain a parameter for the authorization profile.

For medium-sized companies, the use of an authorization tool is usually also worthwhile. However, decisions should be made on a case-by-case basis.
