Authorization Check in Business Transactions 

Use

An authorization is the authority to carry out a specific action in the SAP System.

Business transaction processing in SAP CRM is protected by an authorization check based on alternatives, so that only authorized users can create, change, display, or delete a business transaction.

Integration

The authorization check in the business transaction uses the functions available from Basis. This means that specific authorization fields and objects exist, and the user’s corresponding authorizations are derived from the role assigned to him or her.

You can find general information about the authorization concept in the SAP Library under SAP NetWeaver Library → SAP NetWeaver by Key Capability  → Security.
