Composite Role

Former Member — Wed, 19 Mar 2008 17:41:55 GMT

Hi All,

I have a issue with my role designing, I just want to check my understanding.

1)I created a composite role with multiple single roles.

2)I assigned then to users and did user comparison.

My understanding here is when I do user comparison in role, users should also get updated with all the multiple SINGLE roles in a COMPOSITE role.

what I see is User gets compared with composite role, I can also see the single roles in user profile(using su01). However when I goto those single roles I see RED light in pfcg so I have to go again to each single role and do comparison.

Is there any way I can do user comparison directly instead of manually comparing user records going to each single and composite role.

I would look forward, your thoughts on this.

Thanks!

You should schedule the report RHAUTUPD_NEW to run in background at least once every day. You can schedule this report using transaction PFUD. This transaction you can use as wel of course to run an ad-hoc mass comparison.

Kind regards,

Anil,

You can try SUPC for mass generation of profiles and then run the program PFCG_TIME_DEPENDENCY from SE38/SA38 for User Master Comparison.

Even if you do compare them, instead of comparing the roles one by one, it is much easier to do it by just running the program.

Hi Anil,

I do the same in my system (R/3 4.7) all the time and it works perfectly fine. I never have to compare the single roles again if I have done the user comparison for the composite roles.

Infact after reading your query, I did it again on completely new test roles.

I would suggest you too test it again.

Because, logically too, the single roles should also be compared whenever we do the master comparison for composite roles.

Thanks,

Hi,

Go to the trx PFCG and take a role to view. In het pull down menu you see Utillities and then Settings. Set the automatic user master etc. on and the adjustments will take place after update a role/composite role.

X Automatic User Master Adjustment when Saving

Menu: Do Not Insert Existing Entries. Standa

Have fun

Bye
