You should not use SAP* roles. You should copy them as a starting point and built your own. Do it properly via the menu and SU24 for the access points and you will be fine in the long run. For…
A commonly found solution if the user ID names are identical and the JAVA and ABAP systems are in the same domain is to use a SAP Logon Ticket or trusted RFC call with same user context. Must it…
If there are check tables behind the field then you will have a tough time.. But most you can cover by comparing table TACTZ for changes in ACTVT table and many others are implemented as domain…
So it is not really an option to opt out from the garbage, because you cannot post as before if you dont play along? Can I wager a guess that it is a KPI to see +100% increase in folks completing…
I suspect that the reset of the password is performed via trusted RFC call with current user from GRC to the backend system and then the user sets their own password productively and not by call to…
In my imaginary world, there are no org. fields and the normal authorization fields support variables for derivation rules instead of deriving the whole role itself and allowing only org. fields to…
Some people think it can work that humpty-dumpty way. Some of them even survive with these thoughts for years because they don't stick around for long enough to see it in practice or latest at…
Thanks Samuli, This "rename to child" subroutine is my problem actually. I tried it on various releases. Depending on the note it behaved inconsistently and so I need to export code which is…
Its workings and agents and services and trust dependencies are too complicated for mortals to build a tcode based SOD matrix for. That belittles the SOLMAN - rather get GRC to fix ALEREMOTE and…
I did not realize that before! Thank you - you just raised my hopes by 100% that all these signs will lead to something good after all, like an iota of qualitative contributions or a new frying pan…
A powerful user for OS tasks is usually lurking somewhere in any system. For SAP this not only S_DEVELOP must be considered, but also S_DATASET, S_LOG_COM, S_RZL_ADM and parameter rdisp/call_system.…
There are also public functions and external programs / servers in SAP. There are also "guest" accounts and "anonymous" policies on the Java stack which can be incorrectly configured. Services can…
Two reasons I have observed are: A very legal loaded NDA agreement (same goes for Code Exchange).Very low participation and then ideas are closed in batches without Product Management or…
This was implemented because there were enough wingnuts trying to sell points on eBay that they would make dummy posts, then wait for the real answers and edit their own to copy&paste the real one. …
It is not a default option nor obvious in SE03 objects list, but you can add R3TR-ACGR-* (or role name) and then search for the transports with that object type in the list. If you read the…
All you need to do is maintain IT 0105 to get to the authentication and smtp address data, then call web services from Facebook, LinkedIn & Co. to get the relations and configure customizing for…
Yes, there is an intended possibilityand it works in almost all cases. But there are a few exceptions. Is that your question? Which exception did you find and what release SP are you on? …
Great read! Having lunch or dinner with people who are fiddling on their iPhones or Blackberrys is one of my pet hates... and I always wonder what addiction they have until by own phone wabbles in…
Note that you are not forced to use user BWREMOTE for BW. It is just an example and in the customizing you can propose the user name, but the destination is independent of that. The destination…
Hi Keith, Another plausible explanation for it is that the failure to hand over the 20 points for the 2010 survey caused a ripple beyond the distortion of the results of that year into lethargy to…
You could change the habit of back -> save -> transport to save -> back -> transport and when only going back and it asks you to save anyway then a little alert goes off in your mind as souvenir of…
OMG! You are right... :-( Major pest is that data elements, types and structures only have a last changed date but they are on the top of my list of suspects for causing problems when they are…
I am not aware of any blogs, but there are several rants about the points system... :-) There is a wiki page for http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heteroscedasticity Cheers, Julius
I had no intentions what so ever, but having fun on SDN (mostly) and subsequently SCN accumulated enough peanuts to be diamonds for the missus. D'uh... Nix! Nada! She don't want them SCN peanuts!…
