Procedure documentationAssigning Roles for ESS (WDA) in SAP Portal

Prerequisites

The following prerequisites have to be met:

  • You have created the users in the portal.

  • An assignment exists between users in the portal and the back-end system (for example, ERP system). For more information, see User Mapping.

Procedure

  1. For using the Business Package ESS (WDA) role, assign the following roles to each portal user:

    • Employee Self-Service (com.sap.pct.erp.ess.wda.Employee_Self_Service_WDA)

    • If you use SRM and would like the ESS users to access SRM applications in SAP Portal, assign the SRM role Employee Self Services (EhP1 -ESS) (com.sap.pct.srm.core.ro_employeeselfservice)

    • If you use ERP Purchasing and would like the ESS users to access ERP Purchasing applications in SAP Portal, assign the Role - Employee – Self - Service Procurement (Self-Service Procurement) (com.sap.pct.mm_pur_ssp.ro_employee).

  2. In the back-end system, assign to the corresponding backend user the single roles required for authorizations, also see Single Roles for Employee Self-Service (WDA).

    Note Note

    If you assign the Employee Self-Service Composite Role, all authorizations that are in the authorization profiles of the single roles can be assigned in one step.

    End of the note.
