The impact will be that someone with the proper transaction/program access will be able to change table contents of tables within that group. Impact may vary based on client role and settings.

Browse table TDDAT where CCLASS = SS.

S_TABU_DIS is authorization object used for table maintanance(SM30).

by giving the authorization which you mentioned the user will have authorization to change the records of all tables whose authorization group is SS.

Hi,

If you have given the auth. group SS with change activity , then user will be able to change some tables. The assignment of authorization group and tables is shown in TDDAT table.

Probably the biggest risk here is that table auth group is the SAP default group for table T000 - so if that has not been changed the user with this access plus tcode SM30 would be able to open / close your client.

Right said! Biggest risk!

SS class of table are all basis critical and can create havoc in the system if anyone plays around!

This is what I would do.

Go to TDDAT, put SS in for CCLASS to see a list of all tables in the SS group. The technical names can be cryptic and you probably will recognize few tables by technical name.

Take the table list from SS, go to table DD02V. Put the SS table list in the TABNAME field and then look at the DDTEXT field on the output. This will give you the text description of each table in the SS group which should provide more info on the nature of the data protected by SS. You will then have more info to determine if your proposed change is appropriate.

I don't know what table you are enquiring about protecting with SS, however, I would expect that after seeing the text descriptions for the tables in SS, you probably won't want to make the change.
