Preventing sprawl with the workload monitor
SAP S/4HANA: Analysis and simple adjustment of your authorizations
WF-BATCH: The WF-BATCH user is used for background processing in SAP Business Workflow and is created automatically when customising workflows. WF-BATCH is often associated with the SAP_ALL profile because the exact requirements for the permissions depend on the user's usage. The password of the user can be set and synchronised via the transaction SWU3. Safeguard measures: After automatic generation, change the user's password and assign it to the SUPER user group.
Thus, after evaluation, you can select all SAP hints with the status to implement and load directly into the Note Assistant (transaction SNOTE) of the connected system. This is only possible for a development system and if the SAP Solution Manager can use an appropriate RFC connection to the connected system. You should also consider the security advisories that apply to applications that are installed on your system but that you do not use productively. These vulnerabilities can also be used for an attack.
Configure Security Audit Log
Single Role: Enables the automatic generation of an authorization profile. The role contains the authorization data and the logon menu for the user.
If you want to export the movement data of the productive system to a development system, you should first export user master records and the permission proposal values and archive the complete change documents. After importing, you can then delete the imported change documents, in analogy to the client copy, and then reload and index the original change documents of the development system. The activities described here require administrative permissions for the change documents (S_SCD0 and S_ARCHIVE) and, if applicable, for the table logs (S_TABU_DIS or S_TABU_NAM and S_ARCHIVE). These permissions should be considered critical, and you should assign them to a small circle.
For the assignment of existing roles, regular authorization workflows require a certain minimum of turnaround time, and not every approver is available at every go-live. With "Shortcut for SAP systems" you have options to assign urgently needed authorizations anyway and to additionally secure your go-live.
However, an RFC call does not prompt the user to change the password.
If the profiles originate from the same system (even if the client is a different one), import errors may occur due to the same profile names.
