Compare Role Upgrade Permissions Values
Personally, I'm a big fan of the role-based authorizations in SAP SuccessFactors and I'm glad the system has such extensive capabilities. To review your need for action in this area, I advise you to ask yourself the following questions: Do you know which users get which SAP authorizations and why? Can you explain the concept to your data protection officer? Is it easy for you to introduce a new process because you know how the authorizations work? If you have to answer "no" here (several times), I recommend you to dedicate yourself to the topic. It will make their lives easier in the future. If you need help with this, feel free to contact us!
The simulation of the mixing process is delivered with SAP Note 1941325. When you call step 2c, you will get a list of all the roles with the information about whether the respective role is already mixed (green light) or still needs to be mixed (red light). Highlight a role in this list. Use the Mix button to get the simulation of the mixing process for the selected roll.

Are you already using BAPIs in user care? For example, you can use them to set up a password reset self service. We show you how to do this and what you need to pay attention to. Especially with large system landscapes and systems that are only sporadically used, users often forget their password. Strengthened password rules (e.g. to change a password regularly or to require certain character types to be used), which are supposed to serve security, do their part. Forgotten passwords and the frequently resulting user locks are unfortunately often lost to the user when access to a system is most needed. Unlocking a user and assigning a new password is rarely done in real time, even with large 24-hour support service departments. This problem, which I am sure you are familiar with, does not exactly promote employee satisfaction and productivity. A self-service that uses the Business Application Programming Interfaces (BAPIs) can counteract this.

The critical permissions are defined in these steps: On the Entry screen, select the Critical Permissions button. You will now see two folder pairs in the dialogue tree: - Critical Permissions > Critical Permission - Critical Permission > Permissions Data. In Change Mode in the lower folder hierarchy, double-click the Critical Permission folder, and then select New Entries. In the right-hand pane of the screen, enter the appropriate data for the Eligibility, Text, Colour, and Transaction Code fields. Save your input. When saving, you are asked for a customising job. Please specify it accordingly. Select the entry you just created and double-click to open the Permissions Data folder to maintain the permissions data. Then create a variant. To do this, double-click the Variants to Critical Permissions folder and select New Entries. Enter the name and description of the variant and save your input. Now assign the identifier of the created critical permission to the variant. To do this, select the variant and then double-click in the Variants subfolder to get critical permissions > critical permissions in the input mask. Now click on New Items and select your variant from the list - in our example ZB01. Then save your input. Finally, you can run your report variant with critical permissions. To do this, go back to the RSUSR008_009_NEW entry screen and select the critical permissions option in the variant name pane. Now use the Value Help to select and run the variant you just created.
"Shortcut for SAP systems" is a tool that enables the assignment of authorizations even if the IdM system fails.

So much information... how can you keep it so that you can find it again when you need it? Scribble Papers is a "note box" that makes this very easy.
