Your system landscape does not correspond to a typical three-system landscape? Find out what you should consider when upgrading the suggested values of roles. Your system landscape may differ from the typical three-system landscapes, for example, because you have several development systems or development mandates. Transports are then used to merge all developments and customising entries into one consolidation system. Perform your upgrade work in the SU25 transaction and use Step 3 to transport your SU24 data. By contrast, perform this step in all development systems, run all transports together in your consolidation system, and only the last import of the tables is used. The same entries are also recognised as deleted entries. The same is true with your PFCG rolls. Maintain these in multiple development systems or mandates, and if you now want to transport the rolls with their generated profiles, there is a risk that the profile numbers will be the same, as the profile names consist of the first and third characters of the system ID and a six-digit number. If the profiles originate from the same system (even if the client is a different one), import errors may occur due to the same profile names. In addition, the origin of the profile can no longer be traced afterwards. Therefore, you need a way to transport the data for the permission proposal values and the PFCG rolls in Y landscapes in a transparent and consistent way.
In our eCATT test configuration, the prepared file can now be used to play the recording. Note that playback stops when we encounter an error in the PFCG transaction, such as when we try to create a role with the input values that already exist. To play, specify the file under External Variants in Test Configuration and click Run (F8). You will be given the opportunity to set some playback properties. Now, with Run, it starts. You will see some messages from the PFCG version at the bottom of the status bar and will end up with a summary of success (or failure if there were errors). We admit that eCATT is more complex to use than the transaction SU10. However, if you have used eCATT a few times, it is quite quick. Please always note that the basic mechanism is to play a recording and therefore other organisational levels (e.g. a third organisational level, which is in the dialogue before the work and the sales point) also require a different recording and editing.

In order to use the statistical usage data, you must first extend the default SAP value of the retention time to a reasonable period of time. For a representative period, a minimum of 14 months and a maximum of 24 months shall be sufficient. This includes day-to-day business, monthly financial statements, underyear activities such as inventory and annual financial statements. Now call the transaction ST03N and navigate to: Collector & Perf. Database > Performance Database > Workload Collector Database > Reorganisation > Control Panel.
Your SAP system landscape keeps you safe and up-to-date by inserting different types of SAP hints and patches. For a first overview of the security information for SAP systems, see the SAP Service Marketplace at https://service.sap.com/securitynotes. For a complete list of all security advisories for all SAP solutions (SAP NetWeaver Application Server ABAP and Java, TREX, SAP HANA, Sybase, SAP GUI, etc.), see Security Notes Search on this page. The My Security Notes page allows you to find the SAP notes that are relevant for systems registered in SAP Service Marketplace. This does not take into account information already recorded.
For the assignment of existing roles, regular authorization workflows require a certain minimum of turnaround time, and not every approver is available at every go-live. With "Shortcut for SAP systems" you have options to assign urgently needed authorizations anyway and to additionally secure your go-live.
Map the business processes (if necessary only at the generic level of applications such as MM or CO) across the organisation.
Part of the transaction code (e.g. AW01N), part of the report name (e.g. RFEPOS00), or the logical database (e.g. SAPDBADA) is relevant here.
