PROJECT HISTORIES: THE SAP basis OF TOMORROW An entry in the Forum Infrastructure and Operations within the DSAGNet drew attention to the problem of the SAP basis as described above. This led to a lively discussion, which attracted a lot of interest from the members of the DSAM. Building on the interest and need for action of the member companies, a project was initiated by the DSAG as well as by the SAP, which should deal with the future of the SAP basis. Several companies were invited to participate and their willingness to participate actively was questioned in a DSAG survey. The first project meeting took place within the framework of the DSAG Annual Congress in Bremen in 2015. As a result, regular events took place at the SAP office in Freiberg am Neckar and St Leon-Rot, with the participation of up to 15 companies. In the project "the SAP basis of Tomorrow", current questions of the companies as well as the question of the SAP basis of the future were discussed and worked out with regard to the IT landscape, processes and organisational structure. A master's thesis was initiated to document and prepare the results as well as to examine the topic in scientific terms in parallel with the project. This was made at the University of Applied Sciences Würzburg-Schweinfurt as part of the Master's programme in Information Systems with Prof. Dr. Karl Liebschnitel and submitted for evaluation at the end of March 2016.

The SAP Basis Plug-In is backward compatible and follows the release and maintenance strategy of the SAP R/3 Plug-In. SAP ships it together with the SAP R/3 Plug-In.
Have you ever wondered what there is actually a tab personalisation for role maintenance in the PFCG or for user data maintenance in the SU01? I will answer this question for you in this blog post. What do we need the Personalisation tab for? This tab gives you access to the central repository for personalisation data. The purpose of this repository is to create a storage facility for user- and role-specific data without the need to create additional database tables. This data should then be taken into account in all manipulations of users and roles. The functionality initially includes a generic repository for user- and role-specific data and centralised access to that data by user and role maintenance. It also provides the ability to connect existing tables with user-specific data to the central access via a defined interface. To store personalisation data in the central repository, a key must be assigned to the data: This is done via the registration transaction PERSREG. The personalisation data that you create is stored in the generic drop table. Access to it is provided by the class methods of the CL_PERS_ADMIN class. Different levels of personalisation The data can be stored either to the user, to roles or to the system. A user can then read all data assigned to him (via role or his own settings) at once.
The "Shortcut for SAP Systems" tool is ideal for doing many tasks in the SAP basis more easily and quickly.
This step is of fundamental importance for the SAP basis.
In the future, the focus will be on reactive activities such as monitoring systems and processing notifications.
