Continuing to Work with BW-BPS 

Authorizations

The authorization concept for the planning objects such as planning levels, planning functions or maps, has not changed; migration is therefore not required.

For more information, see Authorizations for Business Planning and Simulation.

The authorizations for the used data are analysis authorizations. Note the information about the migration of reporting authorizations to the new concept.

For more information, see Reporting Authorizations - > Analysis Authorizations.

Lock Management

BW-BPS and BI integrated planning use the same lock management for transaction data. The settings for lock management are made using transaction RSPLSE. For more information about possible settings, see the information text for this transaction.

If, in earlier releases, you made special settings for the BPS lock management in BW-BPS by using SAP Note 635244, you must manually maintain these settings in transaction RSPLSE. This affects, for example, the maintenance of characteristics relevant for the lock.

Transaction RSPLSE also serves as a lock monitor; the UPC_ENQUEUE_READ report for reading the locked selections is now obsolete.
