Query the Data from an HCM Personnel Root Record
CONCLUSION
In compliance with the minimum principle and the separation of functions, the roles used must be defined, along with specifications for their naming, structure and use. Close attention should also be paid to the application and allocation process in order to prevent authorization conflicts, which arise primarily as a result of employees' changing or expanding areas of responsibility.

The data that is regulated by the structural authorizations must be hierarchically structured in one of the personnel development components. This could be Organizational Management or Personnel Development, for example. Access can thus be regulated relative to the root object within the hierarchical structure.

The changes made by inserting the note or upgrading to the above support packages do not only affect the SAP_ALL profile. While it remains possible to assign the full RFC_SYSID, RFC_CLIENT, and RFC_USER permissions in principle; However, this can only be done manually in the PFCG transaction through the dialogue maintenance of the fields. In this case, another dialogue box will open, indicating the security risk. You must confirm this window. From this change of behaviour of the SAP_ALL profile, it follows that all automatic methods for taking over the overall authorisation are no longer available in the fields of the S_RFCACL authorization object.

Your system has inactive users? This is not only a security risk, as they often use an initial password, but also creates unnecessary licence costs. There will always be inactive users in your SAP system. There may be several reasons for this. For example, they may be management level users that are virtually unused because they are not using the ERP system. It could also be that employees no longer use their SAP user due to a change of position or that outsiders do not work on the SAP system for a while. In any case, you should ensure that these inactive users are either blocked or invalidated. Up to now, you had to select all inactive users with the help of the RSUSR200 report and then manually transfer them into the SU10 transaction to perform the blocking. You can now do this automatically.

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.
