User administration (transaction SU01)
Edit Old Stand
After creating a authorization object, you should do the following: Make the permission check implementation at a convenient location in your code. Maintain the proposed values for the application in the transaction SU24. Re-load the role in the PFCG transaction if the application has already been rolled. If it is a new application, adjust the roles by including the new application in the Role menu, and then maintaining the permissions of the authorization objects loaded into the role by the suggestion values.

There may be other objects associated with the site that you can also assign a PFCG role to. As in our organisation chart, you can assign three different PFCG rolls to the user. You can assign the PFCG roles to either the organisational unit, the post or the post. In this hierarchy, you assign the user as the person of the post. The user is assigned to the person as an attribute and therefore not visible in the organisational model. An HR structure could be mapped via this hierarchy. Since the PFCG roles are not directly assigned to the user but to the objects in the Organisation Management and the user is assigned to the PFCG roles only because of his association with these objects, we speak of an indirect assignment.
Create permissions for customising
We would like to point out that after defining and implementing a authorization object, you should no longer change the permission field list, as this will cause inconsistencies. Once you have determined that you want to add more fields to your check, assign your authorization object to the AAAA object class and create a new authorization object.

Here we present different scenarios for the process of resetting passwords. In all scenarios, the user selects the system and the client in which a password is to be reset from a web page. Only systems and clients where this user already exists and assigned a permission should be displayed. An initial password is then generated and sent to the user's email address. Only if a user lock is set by false logins, the user must be unlocked. If an administrator lock is in place, the user should be informed accordingly. Before implementing self-service, consider the password rules set in your systems and the use of security policies. Because these settings allow you to control how passwords are generated in your systems. We recommend that you read the instructions in Tips 4, "Set Password Parameters and Valid Signs for Passwords", and 5, "Define User Security Policy".

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

If the changes to your SU24 data have not been detected with step 2a, or if you have imported transports from other system landscapes into your system, you have the option to reset the timestamp tables and start again.

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.


You can maintain these authorization objects in the PFCG role, which describes the user's workplace.
