Difference between Visual Administrator Security and Useradmin Security

Former Member — Wed, 31 Jan 2007 09:03:10 GMT

HI,

We can configure security roles and groups through http://<server>:<port>/useradmin as well as Visual administrator also.

What is the difference between these two.

Because in Visual admin server-> services-> security provider in Policy configuration there is one component sap.com/com.sap.lcr*sld.

Inside in security roles it is showing the various security roles like

LcrAdministrator, LcrInstanceWriterAll, LcrInstanceWriterNR, LcrInstanceWriterCR

and 2-3 more roles.

But when i access it through above url, it is showing only two roles

LcrAdministrator, LcrInstanceWriterAll

I can't see the other roles.

So, what's the problem?

Also when I assign a security role to Group in Visual Admin, it does not appear in useradmin.

Can anybody explain, do I need to configure any setting in order to get same data at both of the places?

Thanks,

Prasad

Hi Prasad,

in the online help, there is a great overview about the different capabilities of the visual admin security provider service and the usermanagement application under

<a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/c2/f4e73ee7442e5ae10000000a114084/frameset.htm">User and Authorization administration tools</a>.

If you are talking about security roles, are you talking about the J2EE security roles ? In the usermanagement app you will only see the mapped roles. The rolemapping is done in the visual admin. So maybe this is the explanation.

Patrick
