Financials Reporting

Allows you to access the reports that are available on the Financials Reporting launchpad.

Notes on Tailoring

This is a sample role that maps the complete simplified reporting process. Instead of using the delivered role directly, you should copy it to one or more roles of your own. In the new, enterprise-specific roles, you adjust the menu elements to fit your planned process steps and tasks. You then assign the authorizations. For more information, see User and Role Administration of AS ABAP.

Integration

To use this role, you must activate the business function FIN_REP_SIMPL_3 (Reporting Financials 3).

This role belongs to the application component FI-AR-IS.

Depending on the system landscape used, the role requires individual applications or reports from remote systems. This is the case in particular with reports (system alias SAP_BW, SAP_BI). In this case, you have to create system connections. For more information, see 5.10 Remote Systems.

In most cases, the name of the system connection matches the name of the system alias, but specific connection attributes can be attached (_RFC, _HTTP, _HTTPS). For most of the ERP NWBC roles, the connection type is H.

This role contains the following system aliases:

  • SAP_BW

  • SAP_BI

  • SAP_ECC_Financials

Constraints

Some of the roles in SAP NetWeaver Business Client differ from the corresponding Portal roles with regard to the features offered. For more information, see SAP Note 1521466.
