Maintaining Authorization Objects (Transaction SU21)
Structural authorizations
Business objects to which companies refer authorizations are defined in the system as authorization objects. For individual conditions, SAP delivers the authorization objects F_FICO_IND and F_FICO_AIN. With F_FICO_IND you can define which individual conditions are checked when processing the contract depending on the defined authorization fields and their characteristics. Using the authorization object F_FICO_AIN, companies can define whether and how individual conditions are to be checked when processing in the BAPI channel depending on the defined authorization fields and their characteristics.
The convenience of configuring and evaluating the Security Audit Log has been improved. For this purpose, the maximum number of marked messages in the detail selection has been increased to 40 events, a forward navigation for the displayed objects has been added and the details selection in transaction SM20 has been supplemented with the technical event names. You will find the corrections and an overview of the required support packages in SAP Note 1963882.
Compensating measures for segregation of duties conflicts
The Security Optimisation Service for ABAP contains more security checks than the corresponding section in the EWA. In particular, the number of eligibility checks is higher. A total of 110 eligibility tests are currently defined in the SOS, including 16 critical eligibility tests for HR. The full list of all security checks in the SOS can be found in the SAP Service Marketplace on the page https://service.sap.com/sos via Media Library (Security Optimisation Service > ABAP Checks).
So much information... how can you keep it so that you can find it again when you need it? That's what Scribble Papers is great for.
If you now want to assign PFCG roles indirectly to users via the organisation management, you have to use evaluation methods. Evaluation paths define a chain of relationships between objects within a hierarchy. For example, they define how an organisational unit or a post can be assigned to another organisational unit. This relationship is set to the User ID. However, if the business partner has also been maintained in organisational management, there is no standard evaluation path for this case and the user assigned to the role is not found. However, since in SAP CRM the user IDs are not directly assigned to a post, but via the business partner, you have to make adjustments to the evaluation paths before you can assign the roles indirectly.
The possibility of assigning authorizations during the go-live can be additionally secured by using "Shortcut for SAP systems".
The SAP Note 1903323 provides a solution.
However, this does not mean that you have to care for all users individually! It is common for you to make mass changes to users in the SAP system, such as changing role assignments, locking a group of users, or having to adjust their validity dates.
