Standard authorizations

SAP delivers the following authorizations for authorization object S_TRANSPRT. They correspond to typical tasks in the development area:

S_CTS_SHOW

Display authorization in the Transport Organizer

S_CTS_DEVELO

Developers with this authorization cannot create or release change requests independently. They can only work at task level and have the authorizations required for this, for example, to release tasks.

S_CTS_PROJEC

You can create and release change requests with this authorization. This authorization should be assigned to project managers coordinating the development projects.

It also allows transports of copies and relocation transports to be processed.

S_CTS_TR_ALL

All operations available can be applied to all request types. In contrast to the standard authorization S_CTS_PROJEC, this authorization contains

- processing delivery transports and client transports

- the activities "change source client", "import"

- the authorization for releasing other requests

Developers and project managers do not normally require this authorization.

Note

S_CTS_TR_ALL does not contain the authorization for administrative tasks in the Transport Organizer area. These are covered by the authorization object S_CTS_ADMI.
