For a call of transactions from SAP ERP from the SCM system to work, the RFC connection to be called for each ERP transaction must be maintained. To do this, click the More node details button and select the Target system item.
Set a specific acronym or character to indicate whether your role has critical accesses so that separate assignment or approval rules can be observed for such roles. Define here what"critical"means for your project. Do you only want to identify permissions that are critical to the operation of the SAP system, or business-critical processes? Also define the consistency that has a critical role to play in the assignment to the user.
Transports
To access business objects or execute SAP transactions, a user needs appropriate authorizations, since business objects or transactions are protected by authorization objects with multiple authorization fields. Authorizations represent instances of generic authorization objects and are defined depending on the employee's activity and responsibilities. The authorizations are combined in an authorization profile (Generated profile), which is assigned to a role. User administrators then assign the appropriate roles (single role or composite role) via the user master record so that the user can use the appropriate transactions for his or her tasks.
Careful preparation is a prerequisite for a successful authorisation check. A functional specification must be created for all customer-specific functionalities. This forces us to think about what the actual requirements of the application are and then describe the possible implementation. In doing so, security-related aspects, such as eligibility testing and allocation, must be taken into account. Define what you can do with this programme and also what you cannot do explicitly! In the case of a permission check, not only the activity to be performed, such as reading, changing, creating, etc. , can be checked. You can also restrict access to records by using specific criteria, such as field content or organisational separators.
With "Shortcut for SAP systems" you can automate the assignment of roles after a go-live.

Roles are assigned according to the function of employees in the company and their validity is limited depending on the task.
