Performance Optimization
FURTHER DEVELOPMENT OF STAFF
This SAP training covers the introduction/basics of SAP administration. You will learn the basic functions of the SAP system. You will learn the most important administrative tasks, such as user administration and roles, the SAP data transport system, security in the SAP environment, administrative background tasks and system monitoring.
I recommend that you schedule the background job PFCG_TIME_DEPENDENCY with the report RHAUTUPD_NEW. Scheduling the RHAUTUPD_NEW report with two variants has proven to be a best practice: Once a day before users log on for the first time (e.g. midnight or very early in the morning). This way the users are synchronized once a day. Once a month (or even once a week) with the option "Perform cleanup", so that obsolete profiles and user mappings are regularly cleaned up. Also handy: If the naming conventions of your roles allow it, you can also align the report according to different time zones. For example, I have a customer who runs the user synchronization for his users in the USA and Asia at different times, so that the daily business of the respective users is not disturbed.
Virtualization of your entire SAP system landscape (some companies additionally operate an SAP HCM system, for example, which also needs to be virtualized)
SAP on Azure or on Amazon Web Services (AWS) is a scalable, reliable platform for your current and future SAP HANA requirements. Achieve optimal performance for your entire system by migrating to Azure or AWS. Get the best of both worlds!
Remove weak password hashes from the system: Only updating the profile parameter does not provide you with the necessary security. There are still many weak hash values in your database that can be used to attack your system. These must be completely removed from the database. To do this, use the report CLEANUP_PASSWORD_HASH_VALUES. To do this, call the transaction SA38 and enter the name of the report in the input field. Run or F8 executes the programme and cleans your database Report CLEANUP_PASSWORD_HASH_VALUES This programme removes the outdated hash values across all clients.
