Authorizations are the main controlling instrument for mapping risk management and compliance. They are used to control all processes in the systems. For the most part, separation of functions is implemented exclusively with authorizations. Therefore, not only the one-time setup of authorizations is relevant, but also the continuous monitoring and control of the authorization assignment. Various tools are available on the market for this purpose. A re-certification process that involves the departments and optimizes the revalidation of authorizations is helpful.
From the result of the statistical usage data, you can see which transactions (ENTRY_ID) were used, how often (COUNTER), and how many different users. There are various indications from this information. For example, transactions that were used only once by a user within 12 months could indicate a very privileged user, or inadvertently invoking a transaction for which a user has permissions. The future assignment of such transactions in the SAP role concept should then be critically questioned. In contrast, you should consider transactions with a high level of usage and a large user circle (e.g. with more than ten users) in an SAP role concept.

HR authorizations are a very critical issue in many companies. On the one hand, HR administrators should be able to perform their tasks - on the other hand, the protection of employees' personal data must be ensured. Any error in the authorization system falls within the remit of a company's data protection officer.
The possibility of assigning authorizations during the go-live can be additionally secured by using "Shortcut for SAP systems".
The website "www.sap-corner.de" offers a lot of useful information about SAP authorizations.
Along with the individual values, you can specify intervals for your organisational criterion so that you can assign permissions to users for multiple organisational values.
