Background Transactions in Transportation (SAP Library

Background Transactions in Transportation

Technical name: SAP_LE_TMS_BACKGROUND

Tasks

The transactions listed in this role are called up in the background by other transportation transactions. This role was created so that manual maintenance would not be necessary for each single role (otherwise, the authorization for the transactions listed here would have to be added manually in the profile generator).

Activities in Logistics Execution

Select shipments

Shipment number - F4 help

Shipment number - F4 application help

Start F4 help (shipment)

Invoice deliveries

Post goods issue

Report for defining batch runs

Notes on Tailoring

Combining the SAP_LE_TMS_BACKGROUND single role with the following transportation single roles may prove advantageous:

SAP_LE_TMS_CAPACITY_ANALYSIS
SAP_LE_TMS_CURRENT_ANALYSIS
SAP_LE_TMS_DISPLAY
SAP_LE_TMS_EXECUTION
SAP_LE_TMS_MONITOR_PLANNING
SAP_LE_TMS_PLANNING
SAP_LE_TMS_RULES

Integration

It is possible to assign this role to a composite role and then hide the transactions in this role (so that they do not appear in the composite role). As a consequence, the user receives authorization for all transactions, even though the transactions are not visible in the menu itself (which is also not necessary in this case).
