S-User Authorizations for Solution Manager

[Former Member]

Sorry to bother you again.

In step 2.1 of the Solution Manager Configuration: Basic Configuration, it asks for an S-User. I assume that this S-User is going to be stored permanently and therefore should be a newly created S-User. I'm not sure what authorizations are required. The instructions state to see the Security Guide, but I am unable to find that. So, what S-User authorizations are required for Solution Manager's connectivity to SAP's backend and communication?

Hello Jason,

Please check at auth. guide for SolMan 7.1  https://websmp205.sap-ag.de/~sapidb/011000358700001024142013E.PDF page 166. You can assign authorizations from SAP MarketPlace  at data administration -> user data.

ADMIN13.13S-Users
The S-user is a customer user stored within SAP office. It is used by the SAP customer in the following scenarios:è¥wj}À
Exchange problem messages with SAPè¥wj}À
Synchronize system data with Support Portal and send data about satellite systemsè¥wj}À
Service connectionè¥wj}À
Retrieve information about which messages have been changed at SAPè¥wj}À
To send an up-to-date version of the component ST-SER for delivery of services by SAP Active Global Supportè¥wj}À
Get some user documentation from SAP Market Place used by the Help Center within Diagnostics13.13.1S-User for SAP Backend
The S-user is needed to access SAP-internal systems via RFC destinations such as SAP-OSS and SAP-OSS-LIST-O01. The S-user entered in these RFC - connections requires a password and has to be assigned to your customer number. For security reasons it should have no authorizations since it could be misused for direct logon.13.13.2S-User for Communication
The S-user for communication is used in various scenarios. According to these scenarios, the user needs certain authorizations. These authorizations are listed in the different scenario-specific guides.
NOTE
If a user has sufficient authorization and is assigned correctly to the appropriate S-user in transaction AISUSER, this user can display the same personal contact data (name, phone number) for a system as in SAP Support Portal, as this data is replicated from there to the Solution Manager system. Displaying this data is not logged.

Thank you. I thought I was looking for the Security Guide for SAP Marketplace.

I created a new user and logged in to change the password. The connection appears to be working.
