Authorisation analysis (RSECADMIN) tab, asks for password

[onurtosyali2]

Hello,

In RSECADMIN, Analysis authorizations -> Execution as -> Execute as user, it asks for the password again, although previously in prior versions, this was not the case and we were able to "execute as a user" without needing this user's password.

Did this transaction change? Or is there an auth missing? (Although I have admin role)

We run on BW 7.5 SP 14.

Thanks in advance!

Hi Onur,

You need the RSUDO activity of the R_SEC object to be able to "execute as" with no password asked.

Regards,

Frederic

Hi Onur Tosyali,

It could be the reason that you are using Dialogue User where the password is expired. Please check the roles too. Check if below authorisation are available, or a higher authorisation for the User,

Authorization obj: R_SEC

Thanks,

Interesting - I don't experience this in BW 7.5 SP13

In this thread https://answers.sap.com/questions/11543439/rsecadmin-analysis-tab-login-password.html Gareth suggests doing an authorization trace - ST01; I would do the same except use authorization trace transaction STAUTHTRACE - it is easier to use and reliable.
