User & Authorization Management with SIVIS as a Service
THE "TOP SEVEN"
To use the trace data from the USOB_AUTHVALTRC table, first go to the change mode and then either click the SAP Data button or select Object > Add Objects from Trace > Local. The found authorization objects are imported from the table, but are not yet marked with any suggestion values. To maintain the suggestion values, click the Trace button. In the window that opens, select one of the new authorization objects and then select Trace > Permissions Trace > Local. The checked permission values will now be displayed. To apply these values, select Y Yes in the Suggest Status combo box and select the values you wish to display in the right pane of the window. Then click Apply. After confirming your entries, you confirm the Permissions field maintenance in the Permissions proposal maintenance by clicking on the green checkmark, so that the status of the Permissions object is green (maintained). Also continue with other authorization objects.

The SAP authorization concept ensures that no unauthorized access can be made to transactions, programs and services in SAP systems. To call up business objects or execute transactions in the SAP system, a user therefore requires the appropriate authorizations. When called, the application started via a transaction checks whether the authorization exists and whether the user is allowed to perform the selected operation.
Service User
Have you ever wondered who has critical permissions in your system? Have you lacked the tool and approach to identify these users? The user system in an SAP system is always connected to a permission assignment. Over the life cycle of a user in the SAPS system, more and more permissions are accumulated if they are not withdrawn once they are no longer needed. This accumulation is bound to result in users being able to perform more actions than you would like as the permission administrator. To avoid this, we want to give you a suitable tool.
Some queries are also a bit complicated with the SUIM transaction. With SAP Query, you can quickly assemble queries that enable individual and more complex data evaluations. Do you want to know quickly which valid users currently have a modified access to a particular table, or what roles are users granted permission for a particular transaction? The SAP standard tool, the user information system, is an excellent solution for this type of data retrieval. However, at the latest during the next review, targeted queries with data combinations - and thus several SUIM query sequences - must be delivered within a short time. SAP queries can facilitate this task. An SAP Query is essentially a clear way to scan tables for specific data away from the SE16 transaction. There is the possibility to link multiple tables (join), which makes multiple SE16 queries just one SAP query. For example, if you want to know what roles users are entitled to perform the SCC4 transaction, you can use the SUIM transaction to query to determine which users can perform the transaction and view the roles that enable it in another query, but there is no result that shows both.
The possibility of assigning authorizations during the go-live can be additionally secured by using "Shortcut for SAP systems".
The chapter on authorization recertification should also be defined in the authorization concept, which is documented in writing.
You can send a signed e-mail to the system you want to announce the certificate to.
