You can't keep an eye on everything. Therefore, avoid that your colleagues do not assign users to a user group, and thus ensure that the user master data maintenance permissions check is correct. You do not want a user without a user group to be able to be created in your SAP systems? Users without a user group can be changed by all administrators with permission for any user group. You should also prevent incomplete permission checks when assigning roles and profiles to users without a permission group. Because it is possible to assign roles and permissions to a user first, and then assign a user group that does not have permission to assign roles and profiles. Finally, do you want to change the user group for an existing user without having permission for the new user group? In the following section we will show you how to secure your user master data maintenance.
If the changes to your SU24 data have not been detected with step 2a, or if you have imported transports from other system landscapes into your system, you have the option to reset the timestamp tables and start again. To do this, run the SU24_AUTO_REPAIR report in a system that is still at the state of the legacy release so that the modification flag is set correctly (see tip 38, "Use the SU22 and SU24 transactions correctly"). Subsequently, you create a transport and transport your SU24 data to the system, which is at the state of the new release. Now delete your timestamp tables. You can use the report SU25_INITIALIZE_TSTMP. Starting with SAP NetWeaver 7.31, you have the choice to set the reference time stamp from the SU22 data or delete the contents of the time stamp tables. You can then run Step 2a again.
With "Shortcut for SAP systems" you can automate the assignment of roles after a go-live.
