User and authorization management
THE "TOP SEVEN"
Do you want to customise the settings for the Session Manager, Profile Generator and User Care? Use the parameters in the customising tables SSM_CID, SSM_CUST, SSM_COL, PRGN_CUST and USR_CUST. Here we show you the settings for the Session Manager, the Profile Generator or the User Care. How do I merge the user menu from different roles or disable it altogether? How can the generated passwords be adapted to your needs? How can you automatically perform user master matching after role assignments via the PFCG transaction? And how can you prevent assignments from being transported from users to roles? We'll show you how to make these settings.
Different users in your SAP system will have different password rules, password changes, and login restrictions. The new security policy allows you to define these user-specific and client-specific. It happens again and again that there are special requirements for password rules, password changes and login restrictions for different users in your SAP system. There may be different reasons for this.
Limitations of authorization tools
Determine if all recurring external services corresponding to area start pages and logical links have been removed from the GENERIC_OP_LINKS folder. Create a separate PFCG role for this folder. This PFCG role could contain all the basic permissions a user must have in SAP CRM. This includes the permission for the generic OP links. You can transfer this folder to a separate PFCG role by locally specifying the PFCG role that contains the GENERIC_OP_LINKS folder in the new PFCG role under Menu > Other Role >. Now maintain the PFCG role so that only the UIU_COMP authorization object remains active. Disable any other visible authorization objects. These are the authorization objects that allow access to data. You can maintain these authorization objects in the PFCG role, which describes the user's workplace. In the PFCG role that describes the desktop, you can now delete the GENERIC_OP_LINKS folder. If you remix the PFCG role, you will find that many of the unnecessary permissions objects have disappeared.
If you want to cancel, share, or reset other users' jobs to scheduled status, you must have permission for the S_BTCH_ADM object with a value of Y. Alternatively, you can also grant the JOBACTION = MODI and JOBGROUP = permission for the S_BTCH_JOB object. The MODI promotion was introduced with SAP NetWeaver AS ABAP 7.00 or can be recorded via SAP Note 1623250. The following illustration shows an example of how the JOBACTION = MODI privilege is expressed for the jobs of the users listed under JOBGROUP.
If you get into the situation that authorizations are required that were not considered in the role concept, "Shortcut for SAP systems" allows you to assign the complete authorization for the respective authorization object.
For example, the key combination (Alt) + 0160 can create a space with a non-breaking space.
Therefore, SAP standard users such as SAP* and DDIC must also be considered, some of which have extensive authorizations and pose a danger without conceptually defined protection.
