In this section you activate the Profile Generator.

Example

Requirements

Standard settings

In new installations, the Profile Generator is activated (default setting). In this case, no special action is necessary. You just need to check whether the system profile parameter is set correctly.

The Profile Generator is usually not activated during a release upgrade.

Recommendation

Activities

  • To activate the Profile Generator, set auth/no_check_in_some_cases=Y in system profile maintenance.
    This means:
    • When any transaction is run, there is always a check whether authorization checks in it need to be suppressed.
    • The authorization Profile Generator is activated on the initial screen for role maintenance ("Authorizations" tab appears)
