Greetings nachiketjoshi,

ABAP authorization objects and roles:

• The role SAP_BPR_PPM provides the navigation menu definition
• The role SAP_XRPM_USER should be assigned to all users.
• The role SAP_XRPM_ADMINISTRATOR should be assigned to portfolio administrators who should have for example the authority to create portfolios and to maintain all portfolio objects.

Access control lists (ACL). These allow you to add another level of security by controlling authorization at object level. For example, you can control who has authorization to view a particular Portfolio or to create Item within a particular Bucket. You can do so from the Portfolio Management UI on the object’s miscellaneous à Authorizations tab page, there you can set Admin, Write, Read or Create authorization to users or to Z* Role to be assigned to particular users.

Hope if helps to shed a light on your topic.

Cheers,

Luis
