Role Design and Review
Are your SAP roles accurate and well-organised? Do they follow a systematic and easy-to-understand naming convention? Do your managers complain about not understanding the access they are signing off for their users? Have segregation of duties and other security violations been identified in your roles or user access?
Often, roles are created to meet business needs without much consideration to security requirements. As a result, you may find fully-functional roles which violate segregation of duties (SoD) or critical access risks.
On the other hand, the complexity of SAP authorisations can lead to roles giving more access than indicated by the role names. This could put you in a position where, while your roles comply with security requirements, they are cumbersome and difficult to manage, requiring maintenance work to be performed every month.
We follow a time-tested, systematic role-building concept which meets business requirements, access framework and standardised role-naming convention. Our aim is to help you fix, redesign and create roles which you can easily maintain afterwards.
