Well-maintained suggestion values are extremely helpful for creating PFCG roles. We will give you a rough guide as to when it makes sense to maintain suggestion values. SAP provides suggested values for creating PFCG roles in the USOBT and USOBX tables via upgrades, support packages, or hints. These suggestion values include suggested values for permissions of SAP default applications that can be maintained in PFCG roles. Suggestion values are supplied not only for transaction codes, but also for Web Dynpro applications, RFC function blocks, or external services. You can customise these suggestion values to suit your needs. However, this does not happen in the supplied tables, but in the USOBT_C and USOBX_C customer tables. Care is carried out in the transaction SU24.
In a redesign, we follow the principle of job-related workstation roles to technically map the job profile of the employees. To minimize the effort for the same job profiles with different organizational affiliations, the organizational units are inherited via an additional role. The separation of technical and organizational requirements greatly simplifies role development and modification. If certain people, such as team leaders, require extended authorizations, key user roles are developed for them, which extend the existing job role.
How to analyze roles and authorizations in the SAP system
The permissions in the NWBC are handled as well as in the normal SAP Easy Access menu. For example, you can assign transactions and Web Dynpro applications to the individual and collection roles in a defined menu structure in the Role menu. The navigation structure of the NWBC reflects the menu structure and settings of the corresponding PFCG role assigned to the user. The folder structure of the Role menu directly affects the navigation bar that is displayed to the user in the NWBC.
By adding certain SAP standard reports and the user information system ("SUIM"), you can quickly identify security-relevant issues and correct any errors. This improves basic management of your existing security concept and protects you against external and internal intrusions. If you need help with your system analysis, please feel free to contact us. Xiting offers you a wide range of services related to SAP Security. Above all, our proprietary security tool, the Xiting Authorizations Management Suite, or XAMS for short, allows you to build a new role concept based on your usage data and even generate a revision-compliant security concept at the push of a button. Why not see for yourself and join one of our many different webinars.
"Shortcut for SAP systems" is a tool that enables the assignment of authorizations even if the IdM system fails.
Encryption is intended to ensure the confidentiality of the data, i.e. that only the recipient of the e-mail should be able to read it.
In addition, user and permission management can set up their own monitoring of permissions to avoid unpleasant surprises during audits.
