Authorization Field

Smallest unit in an authorization object. An authorization field either represents data, such as a key field in a database table, or activities, such as Read or Create. Activities are specified as identifiers, which are stored in the database table TACT and the customer-specific table TACTZ.

Maintenance using transaction SU20.

Authorization Object

Repository object that forms the basis for authorizations. An authorization object comprises up to 10 authorization fields. The combination of authorization fields, which represent data and activities, is used for authorization assignment and to check authorizations. Authorization objects are grouped together in authorization classes.

Maintenance using transaction SU21.

Authorization

Enter in the user master record or part of an authorization profile. An authorization comprises complete or generic values for the authorization fields in an authorization object. The combination determines the activities with which a user can access certain data.

Maintenance in transaction SU03 or generation from transaction PFCG (profile generator for role maintenance).

Authorization Profile

Grouping of several individual authorizations or further authorization profiles. Can be entered in the user master record instead of individual authorizations. An authorization can be assigned to authorization profiles as often as you wish.

Maintenance in transaction SU02 or generation from transaction PFCG (profile generator for role maintenance).
