CONCLUSION
Permissions objects already included
Are you using the result and market segment statements and need permission checks for combinations of characteristics and key figures not included in the standard? To do this, create specific authorization objects. You can define key figures and result objects (groups of characteristics) for the planning and information system in the result and market segment calculation (CO-PA). You may also want to control permissions by using these characteristics or key numbers. This cannot be reflected with the default authorization objects. Therefore, create authorization objects in the customising of the result invoice.
Of course, these objects can be adapted to the requirements of a company at any time. If a new program is required in the namespace of a company, the programmer decides which authorization objects should be checked in this program. If the standard objects do not meet the desired requirements, the programmer can create his own authorization objects that contain the required authorization fields.
AUTHORIZATIONS IN SAP SYSTEMS
Protect your system from unauthorised calls to RFC function blocks from the S_RFC authorization object by obtaining the necessary permissions using the statistical usage data. In many organisations, the primary focus in the permission environment is on protecting dialogue access. For each required transaction, you decide in detail which groups of people are allowed access. It is often overlooked that the critical S_RFC privilege object requires an analogue permission assignment. If the RFC (Remote Function Call) external access permissions are unneatly defined and assigned to the users, the S_TCODE authorization object quickly bypasses the primary protection for bootable applications.
In order to use the statistical usage data, you must first extend the default SAP value of the retention time to a reasonable period of time. For a representative period, a minimum of 14 months and a maximum of 24 months shall be sufficient. This includes day-to-day business, monthly financial statements, underyear activities such as inventory and annual financial statements. Now call the transaction ST03N and navigate to: Collector & Perf. Database > Performance Database > Workload Collector Database > Reorganisation > Control Panel.
For the assignment of existing roles, regular authorization workflows require a certain minimum of turnaround time, and not every approver is available at every go-live. With "Shortcut for SAP systems" you have options to assign urgently needed authorizations anyway and to additionally secure your go-live.
To do this, use the ISLOCKED export parameter, which returns a four-character combination of the L (locked) and U (not locked) characters.
