SAP authorization system under SAP S/4HANA

The introduction or conversion to SAP S/4HANA can be an opportunity to optimize your own SAP authorization system. 

Before converting to S/4HANA, the current authorization concept should be reviewed to ensure compliance with legal and internal requirements. A gap analysis of the existing role constructs is important here. Were the authorization default values ​​from SAP used? Or were authorization roles manually changed and adapted to your individual needs? Will new processes be introduced in the future for which authorizations must be fundamentally designed? 

The questions that arise are extremely diverse. An assessment of the authorization concept should therefore take place in advance of the planning process to ensure an error-free and uncomplicated migration to SAP S/4HANA. 

Early planning for a successful migration

In our experience, the effort involved in switching from SAP ERP to S/4HANA is often underestimated. It should be noted that SAP S/4HANA is not a successor to SAP ERP, but a new product that brings with it many changes. If you are planning a switch to SAP S/4HANA, do not hesitate to involve our experts in the planning process early on in order to be able to calculate the total effort early on and thus ensure a successful switch to S/4HANA.

Define a framework authorization concept 

A framework authorization concept is an essential part of a company’s IT security strategy. It specifies which users are allowed to access which resources and under which conditions this access is granted. 

Why is a framework authorization concept important?

  • Increase security: Clear access regulations minimize the risk of unauthorized access. 
  • Ensure compliance: A well-defined authorization concept helps to meet legal and regulatory requirements. 
  • Increase efficiency: Automated access processes reduce administrative effort and speed up workflows.

Steps for defining a framework authorization concept

  • Needs analysis: Determine which resources need to be protected and who should have access to them. 
  • Define roles and rights: Define user roles and the corresponding access rights. 
  • Implementation: Implement the concept technically, e.g. by configuring access controls. 
  • Monitoring and adaptation: Monitor access regularly and adapt the concept if necessary. 

 

The framework authorization concept includes the following points

  • Role concept 
  • Business roles – defining the workplace 
  • Emergency/firefighter concept
  • User concept 
  • SoD rules 
  • Developer guidelines 
  • Role and user name conventions 
  • Audit and logging 
  • Security audit log 
  • Audit reports for auditing and financial auditing

A well-thought-out framework authorization concept is crucial for protecting sensitive data and complying with security standards. Contact us to find out more about how we can help you implement a customized authorization concept.
