Solved: Assigning transactions to user

Former Member · ‎08-07-2008

Hi,

I am new to authorizations. I need to assign a user authorization for transaction Sm37 and RSMO.

I think I just have to add the transaction code somewhere... I don't want to change any roles though. Instead of totally assigning a role, can I just assign the two transactions?

can somebody refer me to documentation or just outline the steps?

Thanks.

The intended way of doing this is to create a role in transaction PFCG, add the transactions to the menu of the role, and then maintain the authorization data brought in by those transactions in the authorizations tab of the role.... and then assign the desired / authorized users to the role.

Whether that involved changing an existing role or adding a new one is debatable.

As you might be able to imagine, this has been asked before here ... best practice, in some of our opinions, is to do it like this =>

You have to do it through roles
