Roles

Use

In SAP EHS Management, you use specific roles in the application to access content. You can use roles to support your EHS business processes.

All roles support SAP NetWeaver Business Client. However, the roles can be used to generate Portal Contend for the SAP NetWeaver Portal. For more information about creating Portal Content, see SAP Note 2083956 Information published on SAP site.

All roles are provided without any authorizations assigned to them. You must assign authorizations using the authorization objects in the back-end system.

Master Roles

In addition to these roles, a PFCG role (SAP_EHSM_MASTER) is provided that contains the complete content of the SAP EHS Management application. When creating user-defined roles, SAP recommends you to use each master role as a template and to remove the undesired functions. This ensures that no configurations (for example, OBN settings) are lost.

Activities

The roles provided with SAP EHS Management contain specific configuration settings, for example, object-based navigation settings. To create custom roles without losing the configuration settings, proceed as follows:

  1. Create your custom PFCG role.

  2. Copy the menu structure from either delivery role SAP_EHSM_MASTER.

  3. Remove all not required functions.

  4. Generate the authorization profile.

  5. Assign the custom role to users.
