Configure Security Audit Log
Communication User
The SAP authorization default values are the basis for role creation and are also the starting point for SAP authorization management. For this purpose, the SU22 SAP authorization default values must be transported via SU25 into the customer-specific SU24 tables. The consistency of the default values should therefore be checked beforehand using the SU2X_CHECK_CONSISTENCY report. If inconsistencies exist, they can be corrected using the report SU24_AUTO_REPAIR. Detailed information regarding the procedure can be found in SAP Note 1539556. In this way, you can not only clean up your SU24 values, but at the same time achieve a high-performance starting position for role and authorization administration.
Many companies do not pay enough attention to the topic of authorizations in SAP SuccessFactors. It often seems too complex and confusing. Both the creation of a concept and the harmonization of existing structures often seem like a mammoth task. However, with role-based authorizations, SAP provides a very powerful control tool that remains clear with a little help and documentation.
Authorization roles (transaction PFCG)
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.
First of all, represent your organisation. Map the business processes (if necessary only at the generic level of applications such as MM or CO) across the organisation. On this basis, determine which organisational characteristics (organisational levels, but also cost centres, organisational units, etc.) represent which parts of the organisation. Define (if necessary, only in detail in accounting, otherwise at the level of applications) which functions must necessarily remain separate. If you have a running system, evaluate the use of the last 13 months (see Tip 26, "Use usage data for role definition"). Set up a new system and make sure that processes are always documented to the level of transactions. In such a case, it is also best to collect the business risks directly in the process description.
Authorizations can also be assigned via "Shortcut for SAP systems".
Now, this compares which records have been updated using time stamps.
