Understanding SAP HANA Permissions Tests
Managed Services
As long as the corresponding tests in both the development and the quality system are not completed, the SAP_NEW profile will be assigned to the testers in addition to their previous roles. This ensures that the transactions can be traversed without errors of authorisation. Parallel enabled permissions (ST01 or STAUTHTRACE transactions) can be used to identify the required permissions and assign them to the user through the appropriate roles.
In the SAP standard, there is no universally applicable way to automate the mass maintenance of role derivations. We therefore present three possible approaches: 1) Approach to custom development 2) Automated mass maintenance using the Business Role Management (BRM) component of SAP Access Control 3) Use of a pilot note that allows a report for mass update of organisational values in rolls (currently available to selected customers).
In-house role maintenance
Since SAP NetWeaver 7.02, such a feature is available, which means that you can access the data from the system trace to maintain PFCG roles. In the following we show you how you can apply the permission values from the permission trace to your role. To do this, you must first record applications against their permission checks and then add them to your role menu.
The freeware Scribble Papers puts an end to the confusing paper chaos. The tool is also suitable for storing, structuring and quickly finding text documents and text snippets of all kinds in addition to notes.
You will also notice that many tables have the table permission group &NC& assigned to them, and therefore differentiation over table permission groups over the S_TABU_DIS authorization object would not work at all. Furthermore, you cannot assign permissions to only individual tables in a table permission group using S_TABU_DIS. In such cases, the investigation shall continue: If the permission check on the S_TABU_DIS authorization object fails, the S_TABU_NAM authorization object is checked next. Allows you to explicitly grant access to tables by using the table name.

However, we recommend granting permissions at the function block level, because function groups often contain a large number of function blocks and the accessibility is expanded unnecessarily.
The specific HANA-specific permissions assigned to a user are referred to as privileges in the HANA context.
