Role Assignment thru SU01

[Former Member]

Hi there...quick question...after you assign a role to a user id thru SU01 why is the Profile Comp Status button RED under the Roles tab...thanks in advance

Hello Raj,

When you assign roles to a user the roles are assigned but the authorizations are not yet active to the users untill they login again or you compare the profiles of the users.The user compare or Profile compare does compare the existing authorizations and the newly assigned ones and updates the user master record

Its good to assign the users to the roles and then make a user compare of the roles so that the authorizations are distributed and made active instantly

Raj,

Because the associated profile to the role you just assigned has not been added. When you save the user ID it runs a user compare and adds or removes role/profile combinations as necessary.

thanks Ben...in other words you can assign the role thru SU01 but then you have to do a User Comparison thru pfcg for the profile to get assigned to the user id in the user master record.

Yeah Raj, Thats correct when you assign the role through SU01 the changes to authorizations will be only reflected to the user only when they relogin again.

To avoid this you can assign the users to the specific roles and run the user compare which will instantly activate the authorizations given

if you assign the role through SU01 you should not need to run a manual user comparison.

It should do it automatically when the user is saved (user compare is performed on the user being saved).
