Adjusting Services 

Use

If the services of a portal role for which an authorization role was already created in the SAP system are changed in the portal, you must adjust the definitions of the portal and authorization roles.

Prerequisites

·        To maintain the data copied from the portal to the SAP system you need role administration authorization (see Authorizations).

·        You are on the Role Administration screen Follow-Up Processes for Portal Roles and have chosen the option Maintain Authorization Roles.

Procedure

If you change the services of a portal role for which authorization roles were already created in the portal, these authorization roles are marked with a warning . To adjust the services of an authorization role to those of a changed portal role:

...

       1.      Place the cursor on an authorization role and choose Goto ® Service compare or choose the  icon next to the authorization role.

The services of the authorization role are compared with those of the portal role.

       2.      To copy the changed services to the menu structure of the authorization roles, choose Authorization role ® Update.

You can either execute the function for a single authorization role by placing the cursor on this role or select multiple authorization roles with the editing functions before executing the function.

You may also have marked other objects when you perform this function. The function ignores these objects. For example you can select the entire hierarchy to adjust all the authorization roles.

       3.      After adjusting the authorization roles, you must check the authorization data again and adjust it if required. For more information, see Maintaining Authorization Data.
