Configure Security Audit Log
When assigning a new user group to a user, only the creation permission in the new user group is required. Alternatively, you can enable the check for activity 50 (Move) of the S_USER_GRP authorization object. In the USR_CUST table, set CHECK_MOVE_4_CNG_GRP to YES.
Remove improperly defined SAP Orgebene ($CLASS): This function deletes the $CLASS organisational level that was incorrectly delivered with the GRCPlug-in (Governance, Risk and Compliance). Use the test mode of the report to look at possible corrections in advance.
SAP FICO Authorizations
Like all other security issues, SAP authorizations must be integrated into the framework used. The risks associated with incorrectly assigned authorizations must be classified as very high. The definition of a holistic governance, risk and compliance management system is required. This ensures that risks are recorded, analyzed, evaluated, coordinated and forwarded within the company at an early stage. Accordingly, the risks arising from incorrectly assigned SAP authorizations or from a lack of a process for monitoring authorizations are also included here.
First of all, represent your organisation. Map the business processes (if necessary only at the generic level of applications such as MM or CO) across the organisation. On this basis, determine which organisational characteristics (organisational levels, but also cost centres, organisational units, etc.) represent which parts of the organisation. Define (if necessary, only in detail in accounting, otherwise at the level of applications) which functions must necessarily remain separate. If you have a running system, evaluate the use of the last 13 months (see Tip 26, "Use usage data for role definition"). Set up a new system and make sure that processes are always documented to the level of transactions. In such a case, it is also best to collect the business risks directly in the process description.
Secure your go-live additionally with "Shortcut for SAP systems". You can assign necessary SAP authorizations quickly and easily directly in the system.
Finally, you could use the transaction COAT (see SAP Note 1089923) to assign additional attributes to your own tables and reports, for example.
The first two problems can be solved by inserting the correction from SAP Note 1614407.
