Object documentationLegacy: Rule Script Types Locate this document in the navigation structure

 

You can use the following script types with automated test rules:

  • GRC Configurable

    This script type is a template–based query that can be run against backend tables or database views. You choose a system, a target connector, and browse a view or a table in the ERP backend system and design a rule using the available fields.

  • GRC Programmed

    This script type allows you to incorporate ABAP programs into the automated test rules. This can be an ABAP script that SAP delivers with Process Control or scripts for other backend systems provided by a partner organization.

  • GRC 2.5

    This script type runs programmed control rules implemented for SAP GRC Process Control 2.5. You cannot create new Process Control 2.5 scripts. However, you can use Process Control 2.5 scripts that are already in use due to an upgrade.

  • SAP Standard Report

    This script type works with a rule that calls a standard SAP report.

  • Custom (report)

    This script type works with a rule that uses a custom-developed report such as for third party applications.

  • Query

    This script type works with a rule that calls a query in the SAP backend system. The rule can query multiple tables to retrieve exception information.

  • Segregation of Duties (SoD)

    This script type works with a rule that pulls the SoD analysis results from the SAP Access Control application (if available).

  • Event-based

    This script type works with a rule that receives violations based on the occurrence of events such as network alerts.

  • Financial Performance Management

    SAP Process Control provides out-of-the-box integration with the BusinessObjects Financial Performance Management application. The monitoring tests available from this integration have a specific script type.

  • Business Warehouse

    SAP Process Control integrates with SAP BusinessObjects Business Warehouse (BW). This script type allows you to bind a script from a BW query and define a rule to leverage the results of any analysis done in BW.

For more information about script types and configuring rules, see SAP Note 1329589 - Automated Rules Framework.
