Use

Profiles are generally assigned to users in a Role. A role can also be used to assign a definition set for time data IDs and a subset to a user.

Before the profile and the required definition set/subset combination used to access the Time Manager's Workplace can be included in a role, you must first create a parameter transaction. You can copy one of the standard SAP parameter transactions and modify it to suit your requirements.

Example

Requirements

Standard settings

Three profiles and their corresponding parameter transactions are included in the standard SAP System:

Profile    Parameter Transaction

SAP_XX_TIME_ADMIN    PTMW_TIME_ADMIN (Maintain Time Data)

SAP_XX_TIME_AD_GRP    PTMW_TIME_ADMIN_GRP (Maintain Time Data for Groups)

SAP_XX_WORKLIST    PTMW_WORKLIST (Process Messages)

Recommendation

Activities

  1. Complete the Create Parameter Transaction activity.
  2. Enter a name for the parameter transaction to be created and then choose Create.
  3. Enter a descriptive short text for the parameter transaction.
  4. Choose Transaction with parameters (Parameter transaction) and then Confirm.
  5. Select the Inherit GUI characterictics option.
  6. Enter PTMW_PROF as the Default value for transaction
  7. Choose Skip initial screen.
  8. Under Default values, enter the following data if you want to control the assignment of profiles using the parameter transaction:
    • PROFILE in the Name of screen field and the name of the profile in the Value field with which you want to call Time Manager's Workplace.
  9. If you also want to control the assignment of the definition set and subset for time data IDs using the parameter transaction, enter the following under Default values:
    • TDLANGU in the Name of screen field field and the required definition set in the Value field.

TDSUBLA in the Name of screen field field and the required subset in the Value field.

  1. Save your entries and enter a development class.
  2. The parameter transaction can be assigned to a role in Authorization Administration (PFCG) in the Menu option. By assigning this role to a user, then the profile specified in the parameter transaction is used to call the Time Manager's Workplace.

Further notes

If you do not want to assign a profile to a user using a role, then you can assign a profile with the user parameter PT_TMW_PROFILE. For more information, see Profile.
