Permissions
Collaboration uses the permissions concept provided by the SAP Web Application Server (Java). Therefore, the security recommendations and guidelines for permissions apply as described in the SAP Web Application Server (Java) security guide.
This
permissions concept is based on roles that are valid throughout the portal,
which are assigned to the users. To maintain roles on the SAP Web Application
Server (Java), use the
user administration
console.
