Description
SAP Authorization (native).
Business purpose
The purpose is the authorisation of the usage of SAP transactions / programs, based on the RACI matrix of the businesses that are using the SAP application to support their processes. This authorization facility is SAP proprietary and integrated in the installed SAP application.
Characteristics & indications of usage
The authorization data can be exported, maintained and deployed from the Central User Administration (CUA). This will provide the organisation with a single point of administration and an excellent overview which user is authorized on which systems and for which activities. The Authorization and Authentication facilities are integrated in one application.
