System privileges can be granted to a custom role for all objects system-wide, in a partition or with an isolation group. Custom roles are created in the authentication system, they are created in SAP CPS as soon as a user with that role logs on.

You cannot modify any of the built-in roles:

  • scheduler-administrator - can perform all actions.

  • scheduler-event-operator - can raise and clear events.

  • scheduler-job-administrator - can create/edit/delete event definitions, job definitions, job chains. Can modify jobs.

  • scheduler-user - has access to SAP CPS only, cannot see any objects.

  • scheduler-viewer - read only access to all objects.

  • scheduler-isolation-administrator - can create/edit/delete isolation groups and add users to these.

  • scheduler-screen-reader - indicates that you are using a screen reader.
