Hi All,

How to create SAP_all profile by removing few t-code say like SPRO.

My question here is whether it is possible to edit the existing SAP_All profile ?

If possible I need to know how to do it?

Apperciate if you give other option without distrubing SAP_All.

Cheers!

Hello Naveen,

editing SAP_ALL is not advisable, as SAP_ALL shall contain all authorizations. Furthermore it is regenerated atuomatically from time to time 8for instance after import of new authorization objects, etc.

More advisable is to create a copy of sap_all and modify its sub-profiles, or you create a sap_all-role by inserting the authorization data of sap_all into the empty profile of that role and modify then the values as per your needs.

I hope this information helps.

b.rgds, Bernhard

P.S.: if you search this forum for 'SAP_ALL' for instance, you will get some more useful information in the hits displayed.

I have a another suggestion

Instead of assigning profile to users why donu2019t we create role for SAP_ALL profile and then assign to user why because now we are following role based authorization we are not using profile based authorization after r/3 version 4.7

Go to T-Code PFCG

Directly go to authorization tab change authorization popup window will display from that select Profile SAP_ALL

Then restrict the authorization through objects we canu2019t remove T-Codes why because object S_TCODE contain * if we remove * we have to add all T-Codes ,so better restrict the authorizations through objects

Isn't that exactly what Bernhard suggested when he wrote:

OK, first of all, let me question the basic idea here (I can see some moderator colleagues rolling on the floor already...).

From what I read, you're ok with people being able to modify tables and run arbitrary reports, let alone mess up all business transactions, as long as they don't have access to customizing?

Sorry, but that makes no sense at all.

Constructive approach: what is that role supposed tobe used for...?
