Hi,
Can anybody give exact difference between Role and Profile.

In case of role,we assign various transaction,reports ,menu etc but in profile we assign various authorization.In a single profile we can have maximum of 150 authorization.
During creation of Role through PFCG,profile are manually or automatically generated and are assigned to role and further role are assigned to user master record with the help of SU01.So we can say that role acts as a wrapper to profile.

Hi Ravi,
A role is a grouping of privileges, which can be assigned to SAP users, user groups, or other roles. The SAP database system supports different roles. A user that creates a role becomes its owner. In general, roles contain the logic which is used to generate profiles. The logic in roles includes transactions and user assignments making it the starting point for setting up and maintaining authorizations. Role resembles a job description such as sales representative, accountant, treasurer
Profile: Profiles are assigned to users in the user master record, profiles could represent a simple job position, profiles contain authorization and authorization objects
The basic difference is that the roles contain the "profile" and "user master data"
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Rajesh
