Challenges in authorization management
You would like to revise your authorisation concept and tailor SAP roles only to the productive processes. We show you how to use the statistical usage data from the Workload Monitor for the SAP role definition. One of the biggest effort drivers in redesigning SAP role concepts is the definition of transactional expression of SAP roles. By using the statistical usage data from the workload monitor, you can avoid costly coordination with process managers in the sense of a Green Field Approach. In this way, you can tailor your SAP role concepts to the content of the usage behaviour. The only requirement is that the data be available for a representative period. This is two months in the SAP standard; You can also extend this time period. Below we describe how you can use the statistical usage data from the Workload Monitor for the SAP role definition.

Both are, among other media, also included in the Espresso Tutorials Flatrate, which I have also presented in more detail under SAP Know How.

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.
