Authorization Check

You use this function to analyze the sequence and results of a BCV authorization check.

You can perform an authorization check only if the following applies:

• You have the necessary authorizations, which are granted to you in one of the following ways:

  • In the Role Maintenance (PFCG) transaction, you are assigned to the BCV Administrator (SAP_BCV_ADMIN) role.

  • On the SAP NetWeaver Portal, you are assigned to the BCV Administrator (com.sap.pct.bs_fnd.BCV_ADMIN) role.

The system displays the following information when you run an authorization check:

• The sequence in which the checks were performed for a specific object, for example query view.

• The results of each check, for example authorization object, Access Control List (ACL), and so on.

This information helps you analyze problems related to missing authorizations.

You can check the authorization of users in one of the following ways:

• In the configuration center, choose Perform Authorization Check.

• In Customizing under  Cross-Application Components   Processes and Tools for Enterprise Applications   Business Context Viewer   User Interface   Perform Authorization Checks . For more information, see the Customizing activity documentation.
