Standard authorisation
SOS reports can be very comprehensive. In particular, if the Whitelists are not yet maintained, reporting volumes of up to 200 pages are not uncommon. Do not be discouraged in such a case, but start by cleaning up a manageable amount of critical SOS results. You can then edit the further results in several rounds. The AGS recommends which critical SOS results you should consider first; You can find these in the AGS Security Services Master slide set in the SAP Service Marketplace Media Library.
The report PRGN_COMPRESS_TIMES provides a remedy. You can call it directly or in the edit mode of a PFCG role in the PFCG transaction via Tools > Optimise User Mapping.
Making the RESPAREA responsibility the organisational level
Here, too, it is possible to create security and an overview with the help of tools for HR authorizations. The tool creates a clear overview of which data certain users are allowed to access in the SAP system. Based on this, it is possible to develop automatic checks that run in the background and regularly monitor whether changes to authorizations have created critical gaps in HR.
The SAP authorization concept must generally be created in two versions: for the ABAP stack and for the Java stack. Which roles are required, which role may call which SAP functions, and other conceptual issues are identical. However, there are fundamental differences between the two versions.
However, if your Identity Management system is currently not available or the approval path is interrupted, you can still assign urgently needed authorizations with "Shortcut for SAP systems".
So if a unit is subdivided into further functional areas, all employees of the unit and the functional areas should have the same authorizations.
Password change rules are still not valid for System or Service type users.
