Authorization concept of AS ABAP
Privileges control the use of all objects and data contained in the HANA database. In order to use an application, you typically have to assign many different types of privileges to a user. In order to be able to take into account the complex relationships in the allocation of the privileges actually needed in a manageable way, privileges in SAP HANA are bundled into roles. In our example, the role MODELING in the role SAPT04_CONTENT_ACTIVATION is included. In SAP HANA, it is possible to assign a role to multiple roles as well as to multiple roles. This way, complex role hierarchies can be put together.
In addition to SAP book recommendations on SAP authorizations, I can also recommend the books from Espresso Tutorials such as "SAP Authorizations for Users and Beginners" by Andreas Prieß * or also the video tutorial "SAP Authorizations Basics - Techniques and Best Practices for More Security in SAP" by Tobias Harmes. Both are, among other media, also included in the Espresso Tutorials Flatrate, which I have also presented in more detail under SAP Know How.

With "SIVIS as a Service" we present you the best solution for central user and authorization management in SAP. This replaces and protects you from the development end of your central user administration (SAP ZBV). SIVIS offers over 20 functions that you can flexibly combine (SaaS model), e.g. over 1,000 role templates for S/4HANA! This means that a new authorization concept can be quickly implemented! The encrypted connection to your SAP systems enables secure distribution of all changes made in the SAP standard.
In addition to your custom authorization objects, you must also express the other relevant CO-PA authorization objects in your users' permissions. As a rule, you must limit access to the result reports of the K_KEB_REP object to the result area and the report name, and limit the functions of the information system in the K_KEB_TC object, such as executing or updating reports. You also need permissions to maintain the authorization objects in customising the result and market segment calculations. To do this, assign permissions to the K_KEPL_BER object. In the CERKRS field, define the result area for which authorization objects are created, and in the ACTVT field, define the activity, where the action 02 is Create and Modify.
With "Shortcut for SAP systems" you can automate the assignment of roles after a go-live.
You can also find some useful tips from practice on the subject of SAP authorizations on the page www.sap-corner.de.
Access options and authorizations are defined and controlled in the SAP authorization concept.
There is a trick in maintaining the CO-PA-specific authorization objects, because a once selected result area is set for the entire session of your login.
