Documentation

Definition

Key of an authorization group that may execute a specific individual signature when a signature strategy is carried out.

Use

You use authorization groups to restrict the authorization to execute individual signatures as follows:

• You define different authorization groups for users with different areas of responsibility.
• In the user master record, you assign the authorization for the authorization group that corresponds to the user's area of responsibility (authorization object C_SIGN_BGR).
• You define individual signatures that users of a specific authorization group must execute, and use them in your signature strategies.
