We get the requirement to assigne Mobile components to device profiles.

As a comparison for understanding,

R/3: authorization is assigned to user profiles

MI: Mobile components are assigned to device profile.

Am I right? If so, are mobile components basically predefined by SAP since

security authorizations are basically provided by SAP?

Thanks!

Hello jennifer,

A Mobile Component is any part of Software which will be deployed and wich is running on a mobile device.

This could be for example a Database, JVM, Mobile Client or of course a mobile application (developed or pre-packaged).

A Device Profile is a kind of grouping mechanism which helps you to assign the Mobile Components to a large number of devices.

For Example you create a Device Profile which includes the Mobile Components (DB,JVM, Mobile Client and your Mobile application ). You only need to create this Device Profile once and you can assign it do many devices.

This helps you to administer your devices in a very efficient way.

I hope this helps.

Best Regards,

Stefan
