What to do when the auditor comes - Part 2: Authorizations and parameters
Once you have defined your criteria for executing the report, you can create different variants for the report and schedule corresponding jobs to automatically lock down or invalidate the inactive users. If you want to start the report in a system that is connected to a Central User Management, you should consider the following points: You can only set local user locks. You can set the validity period only if the maintenance is set to Local in the settings of the Central User Management (this setting is set in the SCUM transaction).
The organisation of a company is represented in the SAP system. Keep an overview here to identify dependencies and control access permissions in an organisation-specific way. In customising, different organisational values are stored for the individual ERP components to enable an organisational mapping of the root and movement data. This mapping is required, among other things, to control access permissions or constraints. We will show you how you can get an overview of the well-maintained organisational units and see dependencies between the different organisational values.
Service User
For an up-to-date description of the eligibility tests in the EWA, see SAP Note 863362. Updates to these checks are provided by keeping the ST-SER software component, which contains the definition of checks to be performed, up to date and enabling the automatic content update in the SAP Solution Manager.
You can schedule background jobs in the SM36 and SA38 transactions, but also in a variety of application transactions. It is important to know that special permissions are not necessary for the installation, modification, etc. of your own jobs. An exception is the release of background jobs; it is protected by a permission. Permissions are also required for the activities on other users' background jobs, and the following authorization objects are available in SAP backend processing: S_BTCH_JOB controls the access rights to other users' jobs. S_BTCH_NAM allows you to schedule programmes under a different user ID. S_BTCH_ADM grants parent permissions that are usually only required by administrators.
The possibility of assigning authorizations during the go-live can be additionally secured by using "Shortcut for SAP systems".
Once you have edited the role menu, you can customise the actual permissions in the PFCG role.
