Setting Up Portal Roles
Guided Procedures (GP) comes with a set of predefined SAP Enterprise Portal roles. To set up portal roles, you define the permissions for user access to a predefined GP workset.
The mapping between users and GP portal roles is an administrative task. It is done using the user management engine (UME) of the Enterprise Portal (EP). To be authorized to manage roles and work with the UME, you must be assigned a role that includes the relevant actions or combination of actions. For more information, see Identity Management .
Setting Up GP Portal Roles
- Launch the SAP Enterprise Portal with http://<host>:<port>/irj/portal and navigate to User Administration → Identity Management.
- You can do the following:
- Search for users by user ID or name or conduct advanced search by entering user attributes.
- Choose Create User and enter user details in the Details tab page.
- Assign or modify roles for the selected or created user. You can choose between a variety of portal roles.
- Choose Save.

Setting Up Design Time-Specific Roles
In addition to the roles listed above that grant access to entire GP worksets, you can also define design time-specific portal roles. They enable the assigned users to access design-time functions and callable object types, for which a specific permission level (basic, advanced, or expert) is set. The design time-specific roles are configured in the Administration workset by the GP Administrator.
