Customising User and Permissions Management
With Managed Services, you receive professional management and improvement of your SAP authorizations. In doing so, we analyze your existing workflows and processes and work out optimization potentials. The implementation of the potentials takes place within a few months. As a basis for central and efficient administration, we implement an underlying tool, working continuously and directly with your SAP key users.
Authorizations in SAP systems form the basis for Identity & Access Management. They enable users to access the applications they need to perform their activities. Since functional and organizational requirements are subject to change, SAP authorizations must be regularly checked and reworked. This is the only way to ensure that processes are mapped securely and completely correctly from a technical point of view.
General authorizations
To create a authorization object, you must first select the result area and the form of the result invoice, whether calculating or accounting, for which you want to validate the authorization object. To do this, you must enter the name of the authorization object to be created and click the button (Next). You then set a text for the authorization object and select a maximum of ten permission fields for the object using the Fields button. Only a selection of the characteristics defined for the result area - and for the calculation of the result account also the value fields - is possible. You can now create different authorization objects for the key numbers and characteristics, or you can group the relevant fields into a authorization object. We advise you to define only one object with all relevant fields, as this will facilitate the maintenance of permissions. In our example, we created an accounting authorization object for the characteristics of the profit centre, distribution channel and work in the information system.
Logs: Protocols exist for all audits performed. This allows you to review the history of the audit results at a later stage or to view only the results of the last audit. To do this, use the protocol evaluation of the AIS in the transaction SAIS_LOG or click the button in the transaction SAIS.
The possibility of assigning authorizations during the go-live can be additionally secured by using "Shortcut for SAP systems".
Then, fill in the fields of transaction SU01 with the data from the local table.
In SU56 you can see all the authorizations you have.
