Permissions with Maintenance Status Changed or Manual
ACCESS CONTROL | AUTHORIZATION MANAGEMENT FOR SAP®
The direct consequences are overauthorized users, a lack of overview and dangerous security gaps. In order to get the system back on track in the long term, a redesign is usually the most efficient solution. Depending on the requirements and project framework, we also rely on proven software solutions from our partners.
Since the introduction of the security policy in SAP NetWeaver 7.31, this report has changed. In older releases, instead of the security policy overview, a profile parameter selection page is offered in the report's startup screen. If you select Show Profile Parameters in this selection view, you will see an overview of the Profile Parameters settings in the upper half of the screen. Here you should pay particular attention to the setting of the parameter login/no_ automatic_user_sapstar and check its setting even after the switch to the security policy.
Advantages of authorization concepts
If transactions are changed in the role menu of a single role, this option is automatically suggested to the operator. In this option, the profile generator will match the pre-existing permissions data with the SU24 transaction permission proposals from the role menu. If new permissions are added to the permission tree during this comparison, they will be marked with the Update status New. Permissions that existed before the match are assigned the Alt update status.
Native or analytical tiles: These tiles work exclusively in the FIORI interface and are adapted to the new technology. Here, for example, push messages are displayed on the tile, or key figures, diagrams, etc. are displayed, which can then be processed directly with a click. These tiles do not have direct GUI access, or cannot be used directly in the GUI environment. As mentioned above, access to these tiles is provided in a so-called front-end system via corresponding catalogs and groups. However, the underlying conceptual permissions (who is allowed to do what within the functionality of the tile) follows the same processes as in the "old world" for transaction access. The tile in the front-end needs here corresponding dependent distinctive authorizations (keyword: SU24 adjustment). In the back-end system, then again - analogous to the "old" world - about a role, which is built in the profile generator and maintained on object and field level, or set. Of course, topics such as updating internal and third-party tools, integrating cloud solutions, modern hybrid infrastructures, defining and operating ongoing dynamic changes, etc. must also be taken into account here.
With "Shortcut for SAP systems" you can automate the assignment of roles after a go-live.
The Security Audit Log is not fully configured until both the profile parameters and an active filter profile have been maintained.
Therefore, we will show you the settings you can make when configuring the Security Audit Log.
