Background documentationAuthorizations

 

SAP Learning Solution component uses the authorization provided by the SAP Web Application Server. Therefore, the security recommendations and guidelines for authorizations as described in the SAP Web AS Security Guide ABAP and SAP Web AS Security Guide Java also apply to SAP Learning Solution.

The SAP Web Application Server authorization concept is based on assigning authorizations to users on the basis of roles. For role maintenance, use the profile generator (transaction PFCG) on SAP Web AS ABAP and the User Management Engine's user management console for SAP Web AS Java.
