Prerequisites

The data created during role maintenance must exist in the role allocation system before you can assign the roles. The data might not yet exist in this system for one of the following reasons:

• The roles were created in another system and the transport requests created during role maintenance were not yet imported.

  Make sure the data is imported.

• If you are using central user administration with global role assignment, you first have to read the role definitions from the client systems.

  The initial screen of transaction WP3R then also contains the Read roles from client systems pushbutton. This function can only be performed correctly if all client systems can be reached synchronously.

  Note

  All the users who are to be assigned roles must first have been copied to the central user administration. If you activate central user administration or add new systems, you must first close the copy process before assigning the portal roles.

  Check the copy process with transaction SCUG: None of the systems should have status New .
