What are SAP authorizations?
Grant permission for external services from SAP CRM
Insert SAP Note 1171185 into your ZBV system. With this notice, the report RSUSR_SYSINFO_LICENSE is delivered, which retrieves and displays the user types from the systems connected to the ZBV. In addition, however, SAP Note 1307693, which contains new functionalities of licence measurement, must be installed on the subsidiary systems connected to the ZBV. In addition, you may need to extend the permissions of the users in the RFC connections to the ZBV's subsidiary systems by the permissions to the S_RFC object with the SUNI and SLIM_REMOTE_USERTYPES function groups. If the SAPHinkling 1307693 is not installed on a subsidiary system, or the RFC user's permissions have not been adjusted accordingly, the RSUSR_SYSINFO_LICENSE report in the application log (transaction SLG1) will issue a warning.

In our eCATT test configuration, the prepared file can now be used to play the recording. Note that playback stops when we encounter an error in the PFCG transaction, such as when we try to create a role with the input values that already exist. To play, specify the file under External Variants in Test Configuration and click Run (F8). You will be given the opportunity to set some playback properties. Now, with Run, it starts. You will see some messages from the PFCG version at the bottom of the status bar and will end up with a summary of success (or failure if there were errors). We admit that eCATT is more complex to use than the transaction SU10. However, if you have used eCATT a few times, it is quite quick. Please always note that the basic mechanism is to play a recording and therefore other organisational levels (e.g. a third organisational level, which is in the dialogue before the work and the sales point) also require a different recording and editing.
Authorizations in SAP BW, HANA and BW/4HANA
The SU10 transaction, as the user administrator, helps you maintain bulk user master records. You can now also select the user data by login data. You're probably familiar with this. You have blocked users, for example, so that a support package can be included. Some users, such as administrators, are not affected. For collective unlocking, you only want to select users with an administrator lock. The mass maintenance tool for users in the transaction SU10 is available for this purpose. This transaction allows you to select by user and then perform an action on all selected users. Until now, users could only be selected by address data and permission data.

Another special feature of the role menu is the maintenance of object-based navigation. If a call to a transaction has been executed through a button in a Web Dynpro application, you must make the Object-based Navigation settings for the transaction to call. To do this, select the appropriate item in the (F4) Help. You may need to ask the developer of the application for navigation information.

"Shortcut for SAP systems" is a tool that enables the assignment of authorizations even if the IdM system fails.

The SAP authorization default values are the basis for role creation and are also the starting point for SAP authorization management.

In many cases, background jobs are used for the professional or technical operation of applications; Therefore, we recommend that you schedule these background jobs under a System-Type technical user (see also Tip 6, "Note the impact of user types on password rules").
