Confirmation of the dialogue will immediately start the recording; They therefore end up in the PFCG transaction. We want to record the creation of a single role derived from a reference role. Complete the appropriate steps in the PFCG transaction and try to avoid unnecessary steps - every step you take will make your recording bigger and less cluttered. Enter the name of the derived role - we can influence it later when playing with eCATT - and specify the role. Now assign the reference role. Note that the PFCG transaction is actually executed, so the role is actually created in the system! In the SCC4 transaction, first check whether eCATT is allowed to run. Then start the SECATT transaction. As you get started, you can define and modify test scripts and test configurations. First, create a test script. Think of it as a blueprint or a flow rule for how to create new derived roles. The test script will contain your recording later. Give the script a talking name, such as Z_MASSENGERATION_DERIVATIVES. Then click the Create Object button. You will now go to the Attribute tab, where you specify the general frame data. Then click the Editor tab. Now it goes to the recording, in the eCATT language called patterns. Click the Pattern button and specify that you want to record the PFCG transaction by selecting the UIAncontrol and TCD (Record) settings. The system will propose to call the interface "PFCG_1"; You can simply confirm this.

Entry into role maintenance requires the transport permission (S_USER_AGR, ACTVT = 02) in addition to the modification permission (S_USER_AGR, ACTVT = 21). If role recording requires creating new transport jobs or tasks, you need permissions to the transport objects (e.g. S_TRANSPRT with TTYPE = CUST or TASK and ACTVT = 02).

When it comes to preparing for the auditor, it should definitely be checked whether all critical authorizations, as well as the important parameters, have been correctly assigned or set up in SAP®. The specifications for this should all be defined in the authorization concept documented in writing and must also be consistent with this. In this context in particular, however, it is not always easy to check all the essential points using the SAP® standard on-board tools. This is where the experienced auditors at IBS Schreiber GmbH can provide support.

The assignment of combinations of critical authorizations (e.g., posting an invoice and starting a payment run), commonly known as "segregation of duties conflicts," must also be reviewed and, if necessary, clarified with those responsible in the business departments as to why these exist in the system. If compensating controls have been implemented for this purpose, it is helpful if the IT department also knows about this so that it can name these controls to the IT auditor. The IT auditor can then pass this information on to his or her auditor colleagues.

"Shortcut for SAP systems" is a tool that enables the assignment of authorizations even if the IdM system fails.

So much information... how can you keep it so that you can find it again when you need it? That's what Scribble Papers is great for.


Each pass of the profile generator collects all the permission suggestions from the SU24 transaction to a transaction added through the role menu of the single role and checks the permissions to be added to the permission list.
