Further training in the area of authorization management
HR authorizations are a very critical issue in many companies. On the one hand, HR administrators should be able to perform their tasks - on the other hand, the protection of employees' personal data must be ensured. Any error in the authorization system falls within the remit of a company's data protection officer.
Is it necessary for your evaluations to select the blocked or invalid users? This is now directly possible with the extensions of the user information system. There is always a requirement to evaluate the existing users in your SAP system. Examples may include lists requested by auditors. In such a case, you naturally want to exclude invalid users and those with administrator lock from the selection. Up to now, you have had to perform various evaluations with the reports RSUSR200 and RSUSR002 of the user information system (transaction SUIM) and subsequently edit the lists. The findings may not have been accepted by the auditors as the lists were visibly manipulated, even if this manipulation was justified. You can now enter this selection directly. We will show you below how to search for users with password or administrator lock or exclude them from your selection.
Query Data from a Local Table
In case of missing authorizations, SAP Basis also helps with an authorization trace in addition to the well-known SU53 for a more detailed analysis of authorization objects. The article "SAP Basis Basic or finding missing authorizations thanks to SU53 or ST01 Trace" describes this in more detail.
Giving permissions to specific functions that are called in SAP CRM through external services requires some preliminary work. Users working in SAP CRM use the SAP CRM Web Client to invoke CRM capabilities. For this to work smoothly, you must assign a CRM business role to the user, which provides all the CRM functionality necessary for the user. If the role should only allow access to certain external services, regardless of the customising (or only to the external services specified in the customising), it becomes a little trickier. All clickable elements in the SAP CRM Web Client, such as area start pages or logical links, are represented by CRM UI components. These UI components are, technically speaking, BSP applications. By clicking on such a component, the user gains access to certain CRM functions. These UI components are represented in the roles as external services. You must explicitly allow access to these UI components through PFCG roles, similar to the permissions for access to specific transactions.
