Use SU22 and SU24 transactions correctly
Automatically pre-document user master data
In this article, I show you with which transaction you can easily and quickly run the authorization trace in SAP ERP or SAP S/4HANA. The displayed result provides a good overview of the involved authorizations. In this course, existing roles and profiles in authorization management (transaction PFCG) can be extended. In addition, the authorization trace is useful for maintaining authorization default values (transactions SU22 and SU24).
In order to be able to execute subsequent SAP standard reports, you need authorizations to access certain programs or reports and in the area of role maintenance. The transactions "SA38" and "SE38" for executing programs are of particular importance. They enable a far-reaching system analysis by means of certain programs for the end user. Additional rights associated with this, which can go beyond the basic rights of administrators, have to be controlled by explicit values in a dedicated manner.
Assign SAP_NEW to Test
In order to be able to use the following reports, you must not only have the appropriate authorizations, but also be aware that, depending on your SAP release or Notes, some reports are not yet or no longer available. The following reports were executed with release level 7.50.
As part of the use of a HANA database, you should protect both the execution of HANA database functions as well as the reading or altering access to the data stored in the database by appropriate permission techniques. Essential to the permission technique are database objects such as tables and views - which allow access to the stored data - as well as executable procedures and users. The specific HANA-specific permissions assigned to a user are referred to as privileges in the HANA context.
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.
The website www.sap-corner.de offers a lot of useful information about SAP authorizations.
In addition, you will of course need a P_ABAP for the relevant reports with the value COARS = 1.
The individual authorization objects are divided into object classes.
