Hi Mark,
 
I forgot to mention that we have certain check to ensure the that =

Mark,
 
this would go against one of the prime design principles of the SAP
authorisation concept. Authorisations are allocated to the user, and when
you arrange a substitution, the substitute should not have access to more
functions automatically, otherwise you could use that to circumvent =
explicit
assignment of authorisations. I would not recommend not to try to automate
this process, as you would no doubt get into trouble during an audit =
unless
you log the changes very carefully and keep a full audit trail and inform
people that this automatic stuff has happened and....
 
Hth,
Stephan

Betreff: Subsitute Authoizations/profiles/roles
 
 
WF folks,
 
When a User substitutes another user in SAPinbox/Workplace,
authorizations/roles does not seem to get substituted to the new user. =
Looks
like it will be have to manually added by the security person. Doesn't =
sound
too good.
 
We are currently maintaining roles/authorizations at user-level. Is there
any user-exit that we can use to do the custom stuff?
 
Suggestions appreciated.
 
Mark.
