As a SAP Basis/Security guy, how to modify (delete/add) the entries from DEVACCESS table with proper Audit trail?

there is no standard/direct option from SAP.

However, below wiki hints on using the custom report. DEVACCESS is enabled for 'log data changes'. so, all actions are recorded for audit trail anyways.

as per SAP Note 1710320 it is not recommended to delete DEVACCESS or

ADIRACCESS table entries. If you wish to do so regarless SAPs recommendation you need to cretae an custom program with DELETE statement.

Please keep in mind that developer keys stored in DEVACCESS are more related to licensing than to security, see SAP note 2309060.

Hi Seniors,

Thank you for providing the answers and note.

Please suggest, how the delete the unused users from the DEVACCESS table as we have limited number of licences.

Do we have to raise an OSS for this?
