hi,

Usr Grp :- Significance Is set to get access to personal actions defined for set of employees

For eg:-If you have a process of Initial Conversion, Current conversion processes, you have to mention the USRgrp

defined in the user parametrs ( PU3). If you remove the Usr Grp all the action available default set by SAP

will be available in PA40.

Molga :- To set the country code default in the views like V_T510 etc we maintian the Molga of the country in user parameters.

User Group

Have a look at transaction - SUGR.Purpose for example is to give certain system admin rights to unlock / change password only to a given user group. You assign user group to an user id via SU01.

The main reason of user groups is to categorize user into a common denominator.

Two types of User Groups.

1.general user groups

2.authorization user group

The general user group can be used in conjunction with SUIM and SU10, to select all the users in a specific group. User can only be member of one authorization user group but several general user group.

The authorization user group is used in conjunction with S_USER_GROUP authorization object. It allows to create security management authorization by user group. e.g. you can have a local security administrator only able to manage users in his groups, Help-Desk to reset password for all users except users in group SUPER, etc.

One of the Primary uses of user groups is to sort users into logical groups.

This allows users to be categorised in a method that is not dependent on roles/AG's/Responsibilities/Profiles etc.

User Groups also allow segregation of user maintenance, this is especially useful in a large organisation as you can control who your user admin team can maintain - an example would be giving a team leader the authority to change passwords for users in their team.

The most important factor identified is that the lack of user groups is an indication that there may be problems with the user build process. This is very "fuzzy" but is a bit of a warning flag.

Personnel Country Grouping

MOL defines you default country.This is most imp concept for an employee.say,When Hiring,You have to do set this Mol in the user profile.When you set the default country,all transactions and default settings applicable to that country will be available for you.

You do the settings in cutomizing table as per the country grouping. Eg.T500P( Pers.area) ,T510( Pay Scale Groups)

Hello

Good Day.

An UGR would be only to users, as the name indicates is a User Group and is not related to a country.If you want to find the user group of a person, then you can go toSystem->User Profile->Own Data-> Parameters.

MOL Specifies the personnel country grouping. This can reduce the queries for MOLGA

UGR User group (HR master data); for example, affects the display of personnel actions available in PA40

Changing the UGR; (for whatever you want)

example: people in offices...UGR 90

people in the fabric.... UGR 91

With this you can do diff. personnel actions and also appear diff. personal actions in the actions menu (PA40)

Hope this information helps.

Best Regards,
