Your SAP system landscape keeps you safe and up-to-date by inserting different types of SAP hints and patches. For a first overview of the security information for SAP systems, see the SAP Service Marketplace at https://service.sap.com/securitynotes. For a complete list of all security advisories for all SAP solutions (SAP NetWeaver Application Server ABAP and Java, TREX, SAP HANA, Sybase, SAP GUI, etc.), see Security Notes Search on this page. The My Security Notes page allows you to find the SAP notes that are relevant for systems registered in SAP Service Marketplace. This does not take into account information already recorded.

If a user does not have a print permission for an output device (S_SPO_DEV privilege object), an instant print flag may be rescinded, which means that a spool job created during the job step would not print immediately. If archive parameters are passed when scheduling a step, a check is performed on the object S_WFAR_PRI. If the Step user does not have a matching permission, an error message is displayed.
Define a user group as mandatory field in the user root
First and foremost, legal principles must be stated and specific reference must be made to authorizations that are critical to the law and that may not be assigned (or at most may be assigned to emergency users). An example is the authorization "Debugging with Replace", to which the object S_DEVELOP with the values ACTVT = 02 and OBJTYPE = DEBUG legitimizes and over which data can be manipulated by main memory change. However, this would violate § 239 of the German Commercial Code, the so-called "erasure prohibition".

To store all the information on the subject of SAP - and others - in a knowledge database, Scribble Papers is suitable.


The Security Audit Log can also log customer-specific events in restricted way starting with SAP NetWeaver 7.31. The event definitions DUX, DUY and DUZ are reserved for customers and delivered with a dummy expression. For these events, you can then define individually configurable messages using the RSAU_WRITE_CUSTOMER_EVTS function block. To do this, you must first identify the additional necessary events and define their message texts and variables. Note that you may not change the meaning of the message and the arrangement of the variables later, as this would prevent older log files from being readable. Finally, you must include the new message definitions in your filters (transaction SM19). You will find the corrections and an overview of the required support packages in SAP Note 1941526. Since the use of this functionality requires extensive knowledge about the Security Audit Log, it is important that you also consider the recommendations in SAP Note 1941568 and that you can be supported by a basic consultant.

Authorizations can also be assigned via "Shortcut for SAP systems".

It must therefore be defined in which time period and in which form the departments must receive the information about the assigned authorizations and report back regarding the correctness of the assignment.

You will be aware that you do not necessarily have to move in the Customer Name Room when assigning names of PFCG roles and therefore have a lot of freedom.
