In this step, you can create roles and use the profile generator to generate authorization profiles.

Activities

To assign an authorization profile to a user, do the following:

  1. Create a role
  2. Enter a description
  3. Select transactions
  4. Create and edit authorizations
  5. Assigns users and compare the user master (in doing so, the profile is entered in the user's master record)
  6. Transport roles, if desired

Detailed documentation

For more information about the procedures, see transaction documentation

See also the general documentation on the Profile Generator in the SAP Library. Choose:
Basis Components -> Computing Center Management System -> Users and Roles or in the Implementation Guide (IMG), choose: Basis Components -> System Administration -> Users and Authorizations -> Maintain Authorizations and Profiles using Profile Generator.

Note

You can also use authorization profiles you created manually or were delivered by SAP, in roles. You can create a role without a menu and include the corresponding profile in the authorization data of the role.

In the fourth step, choose "Edit -> Add authorization -> From profile" to add the authorization profile data to the role.
