Single Role showing Many profiles in SU01

Former Member

Hello,

My apologies as I'm somewhat new to SAP Security. I have a single role that's producing multiple profiles in SU01. My question is why are there multiple profiles showing for this one role in the profiles tab? I was under the understanding that for single roles the relationship should be 1-1, one role to one profile. How can I correct this?

I appreciate any advice.

Yes this is possible with large roles. When the number of authorizations exceeds a set number (can't recall the amount), profile generator will create additional profiles. You will notice that there is a sequential number at the end of the profile name for the additional roles.

Hi,

Just adding to JC's comment/

Yes..if a profile reaches max number of objects it creates a new incremental profile. Max limit of a single profile is 150 object. you can go to SU02 and look for the objects and related profiles.

Hope this helps

Thanks

Hi there,

Every thing that is said here is right.

I just wanted to know in addition to the information,

what is the max on profiles that PG can generate for a role.

When a role maxes out on profile generation how does the role/system behave?

Thanks
