In the TPC6 transaction, set the periods to be reviewed. In the example shown in the figure below, a group of auditors from North Rhine-Westphalia would be active for the accounting area or cost accounting area (OrgUnit) 1000. In the 2000 accounting area and the 2000 HR accounting area, a Hessen-based payroll tax auditor group would operate.
Communication users are also intended for use by people who log on to the SAP system from outside via RFC call. Therefore, dialogue is not possible. If the password is set by the administrator, it will be assigned Initial status. However, an RFC call does not prompt the user to change the password. It therefore often retains this status, even if the user has the possibility to change the password by calling a function block (then: Status Productive). The password rules apply to this type of user. However, this is often not noticed in practice, as password rules for initial passwords are less used.
Handle the default users and their initial passwords
The authorization objects are attached by analogy to the forecast and item-based reports. The authorization objects of the item-based reports are checked in addition to the authorization objects for the information system when the report is selected. There is a trick in maintaining the CO-PA-specific authorization objects, because a once selected result area is set for the entire session of your login. This is of course hindering the maintenance of authorization objects for different result areas. Therefore, simply change the result area in the Customising window using the following path: Controlling > Income and market segment accounting > Structures > Set result area.
In addition to defining permissions for external RFC access through the S_RFC authorization object, it is possible to prevent external calls to function blocks. From SAP Net-Weaver AS ABAP 7.40 there is the additional SAP Unified Connectivity (UCON) layer. It controls external access to RFC function blocks independently of users or roles and can be configured to suit your needs. All function modules that are to be executable via RFC are entered into the UCON Communication Assembly. If a function block is not stored there, the call will be blocked. UCON has been designed to minimise impact on RFC call performance. The necessary function blocks are identified in the UCON Phase Tool (transaction UCONPHTL), which constantly monitors all external RFC calls and supports an introduction of the UCON Communication Assembly. This allows calls to new function blocks (such as custom developments, support package changes) to be analysed and, if necessary, released for external access. In addition, UCON offers the possibility to review the configuration in an evaluation phase. There are approximately 40,000 RFC-enabled function blocks in an ERP system; Usually no more than a few hundred of them are used. With the use of UCON you therefore increase the security of your system.
With "Shortcut for SAP systems" you can automate the assignment of roles after a go-live.
The size of the ring buffer is calculated from the number of defined work processes.
The AIS has thus been switched from the previous role concept to thematic audit structures and offers new functions, such as logging all audit activities.
