Is it possible to transport authorization groups in SAP ME from a development system into a test, quality or production system?

If yes, can you please describe how to do this?

Best regards

Hello Sarmad,

You can use XChange for that.

You have to create an export XML for users and user groups.The XML file could look like that:

<DX_REQUEST>

<!-- User Groups -->

<EXPORT>

<USER_GROUP_OBJECT>

<SITE>mysite</SITE>

</USER_GROUP_OBJECT>

</EXPORT>

</DX_REQUEST>

or

<DX_REQUEST>

<EXPORT>

<USER_OBJECT>

<SITE>mysite</SITE>

</USER_OBJECT>

</EXPORT>

</DX_REQUEST>

You run XChange and pass the xml file. The outcome will be all user / user group data in the site. You may also specify additional filter criteria in your export xml.

Next, you transform the output xml into the input format.

Then you run XChange in the target system and pass the input xml to import the data.

You may have to do the same with the permissions.

I hope that helps.

Best Regards,

Miguel

Frankly speaking, such task might be a bit tricky:

- depending on which data need to be copied, you should execute proper EXPORT request for each configuration business object to extract those data. To do this, you have to check CRUD tables;

- given the relations between BOs, their IMPORT requests should be run in a correct sequence - the example of possible issue is described in SAP Note 1655367.
