Critical authorizations
WHY ACCESS CONTROL
In the beginning, the FI and CO modules were separated from each other. Both modules have been combined by SAP as higher-level modules in the accounting area. The main reason for this is the tight process structure, which enables a smooth transition between the two modules. As a result, SAP FI and CO now only appear as the joint module SAP FICO.

A note box in which data of all kinds can be quickly filed and retrieved. This is what Scribble Papers promises. At first, the program looks very spartan. But once a small structure is in place, you realise the great flexibility of this little helper.
Configuration validation gives you an overview of the homogeneity of your system landscape. Typical criteria are operating system versions, kernel patch levels, and the status of specific transport jobs or security settings. The following security settings can be monitored using configuration validation: Gateway settings, profile parameters, security notes, permissions. As part of the comparison, you can define rules that determine whether the configuration is rule-compliant or not. If the configuration meets the defined values in the rule, it will be assigned Conform status. You can then evaluate this status through reporting.

You must enable a role that you have created as a Design-Time object in the Design Time Repository before it can be associated with a user. To do this, use Project Explorer to select the role you want to enable and select Team > Activate from the shortcut menu. This will create a runtime object of this selected SAP HANA role. This object is also understood as a catalogue object and is incorporated in the Roles branch in the corresponding SAP HANA system.
Compiling and identifying external services in the role menu of CRM business roles is tricky. We show you how to bring order to external services. In SAP Customer Relationship Management (SAP CRM), the role concept is based not only on PFCG roles, but also on CRM business roles. These roles are created in customising and enable the presentation of CRM applications in the SAP CRM Web Client. In order for a user to work in SAP CRM, he needs both CRM business roles that define the user interface and the respective PFCG roles that entitle him to work in the applications. The CRMD_UI_ROLE_PREPARE report identifies and lists all external services defined in the customising of the CRM business role. These are displayed in the role menu of the PFCG role. You will notice, however, that the displayed services represent only a small part of the external services in the role menu.
