Authorization of TCODE

Former Member — Fri, 13 Oct 2006 05:36:18 GMT

hello guyz!

My question is if a particular user is not authorized for some trnx, how the user would request for authorization to the basis guyz. What I know is u gotta type in su53 trnx and then, it goes to the basis guyz through express document service. If any body could help me out in getting the step by step wizard in getting access for trnx in a automated SAP system, I would appreciate that.

Thanks

Shane

Hello Shane

The information about missing transactions authorizations should be sent to an authorization team (rather than SAP basis team) because they have to identify the roles in which these transactions are used.

Assuming that your company is working with a <b>role-based</b> authorization concept the next step is whether the user is entitled to have these additional roles or not. If you are using the CUA (central user administration) then the authorization team can assign the new roles to the user (after approval) and distribute the assignments.

The whole process can be supported either using SAP workflow or external workflow tools.

I hope that you do not have <b>user-centric</b> SAP roles because sooner or later you will loose control over the authorizations within your SAP systems.

Regards

Uwe
