Hi Ramesh,

Normally roles are created according to the user requirement and are assigned to them, If your company wants you to assign SAP delivered roles then make sure you are assigning role to a user who is intended to use it else copy SAP standard role edit them and assign to the user according to their requirement.

Hi Ramesh,

If you are doing like this all users can use all transactions.

Please create/assign roles according to the designation and what role this employee is having in the business process.

Hi Ramesh,

Role mapping is major task, you need to take inputs from Business Analyst for the task they are going to execute.

using SAP delivered is not recommended because they are just like template, you have to create new roles in customer namespace, that is using Z and another reason for not using sap roles is they are not generated.

As mentioned earlier these roles will give access to unwanted transactions.

thanks and good day
