Ever thought about having the autonomy to manage your SAP Fieldglass company by yourself and reduce the number of support cases? As a Configuration Manager, this is already possible!

But, what is this Configuration Manager?

The configuration manager is a superuser that can perform many administrative actions independently, through a self-service dashboard.

Independence! This is what you get as a Configuration Manager. By reducing the need to open support cases with SAP Fieldglass, you increase productivity and save your precious time managing your time-sensitive tasks.

What exactly can a Configuration Manager control?

As a configuration manager, you are provided with access to integration, system, and maintenance tools, in the color-coded tiles of the self-service dashboard. You can, for example, set up connectors, enable and disable company configurations, and create and maintain API license keys. With all this empowerment, we recommend that this potent user role is created  for system administrators or technical resources at your company.
