To upload or download a role, choose Role ® Upload or Role ® Download in the role maintenance.

Role upload loads all role data, including authorization data from a file into the SAP System. The role user assignment and the generated role profile are not loaded. The authorization profile must be regenerated after the upload.

You can save several roles on the PC with Environment ® Bulk download in the role maintenance initial screen.

To avoid inconsistencies, all roles from which a role is derived are also downloaded. When you download composite roles, all the roles which they contain are also downloaded.
