Authorization concept of AS ABAP
Authorization concept - user administration process
You probably know this. You find a specific customising table and you don't find it. Include the tables in the guide and they are easy to find. Customising is used by almost every SAP customer. Custom customising tables are created and standard programmes are extended. A custom programme that uses customising is written quickly. Project printing often lacks the time for sufficient documentation, for example in the SAP Solution Manager. The easiest way is to find customising tables where they are in the SAP standard: in the SAP Introductory Guide (IMG).
Depending on the transaction invoked, the application can be more granular checked by this additional permission check. Therefore, transactions that are called with additional parameters might require more than one authorization object and must be protected programmatically. The following listing shows an example of a permission check that ensures that the logged-in user has the permission to start the SU24 transaction.

It is essential to implement adequate authorization checks in every ABAP development. For this purpose, the so-called AUTHORITY-CHECK is used, which queries the required authorization object characteristics and thus only allows authorized users to execute the code.
Put the values of the permission trace into the role menu: The applications (transactions, web-dynpro applications, RFCBausteine or web services) are detected through their startup permissions checks (S_TCODE, S_START, S_RFC, S_SERVICE) and can be added to the role menu of your role. In your role, go to the Menu tab and import these applications by clicking Apply Menus and selecting Import from Trace. A new window will open. Here you can evaluate the trace and view all recognised applications in the right window. To do this, click the Evaluate Trace button and select System Trace (ST01) > Local. In a new System Trace window, you can specify the evaluation criteria for the trace, such as the user using the Trace field only for users or the time period over which to record. Then click Evaluate. Then, in the right part of the window, you will see all the applications logged. Select the applications you want to apply to the Roles menu and click Apply. You can now decide how the applications appear in the Role menu. The application can be added to the role either as a permission proposal or as a menu item through the Add drop-down box. They can be displayed as a list or as a panel menu (insert as list) or according to the SAP menu tree in which the application is stored in the SAP menu (insert as SAP menu).
However, if your Identity Management system is currently not available or the approval path is interrupted, you can still assign urgently needed authorizations with "Shortcut for SAP systems".
In role maintenance (transaction PFCG), not only the role menu of a single role is maintained, but also the authorization objects and authorization field values can be maintained in the Authorizations tab.
After generating and saving the role, you will be returned to eCATT.
