Application Permissions
Change documents
In compliance with the minimum principle and the separation of functions, the roles used must be defined, along with specifications for their naming, structure and use. Close attention should also be paid to the application and allocation process in order to prevent authorization conflicts, which arise primarily as a result of employees' changing or expanding areas of responsibility.
Configuration validation gives you an overview of the homogeneity of your system landscape. Typical criteria are operating system versions, kernel patch levels, and the status of specific transport jobs or security settings. The following security settings can be monitored using configuration validation: Gateway settings, profile parameters, security notes, permissions. As part of the comparison, you can define rules that determine whether the configuration is rule-compliant or not. If the configuration meets the defined values in the rule, it will be assigned Conform status. You can then evaluate this status through reporting.
SAP Data Analytics
You have now successfully recorded the blueprint. Now the slightly trickier part follows: The identification of the values to be changed at mass execution. In the editor of your test configuration, at the bottom of the text box, is the record you have created: TCD ( PFCG , PFCG_1 ). Double-click the PFCG_1 interface. On the right, a new detail with the recording details appears. Now you have to look for your input a bit. For example, use the role name entered on the PFCG entry screen (field name 'AGR_NAME_NEW'). Now comes an important step: Replace the values you entered during the recording with a placeholder, a so-called input parameter. To do this, go to the VALIN line and type any parameter name, such as ROLLENNAME, instead of the role name you entered. Click Enter and you will be asked what type of parameter it is. Specify Import and confirm with Yes.
Transaction SE63 allows you to translate a variety of text in the SAP system. You can find the relevant texts for the eligibility roles via the menu path: Translation > ABAP Objects > Short Texts In the pop-up window Object Type Selection that appears, select the S3 ABAP Texts node and select the ACGR Roles sub-point.
During go-live, the assignment of necessary authorizations is particularly time-critical. The "Shortcut for SAP systems" application provides functions for this purpose, so that the go-live does not get bogged down because of missing authorizations.
You can also extend the integrated workflows of both solutions to HANA permission applications.
So you can maintain a whitelist.
