Maintaining Backend roles and frontend roles(synchronising)

[Former Member]

hello all,

I have a problem, and thats how will I maintain properly both backend roles in R/3 and frontend roles on the PORTAL? like ESS/MM ROLES for portal?

What I mean I can set them up, but I am worried on that if we setup a role for the backend we may not always remember to set up the backend roles if you know what I mean?

we use a template which has the role mapping i.e backend and frontend but how do we succesfully synchronise these 2 roles for each users, as each user will always have both roles setup, but worry is sometimes they wont be IN SYNC with each other?

this is worrying, any ideas?

You can also forget to have breakfast... it just means that you eventually notice that you are hungry.

In this case you should notice the missing access one way or the other.

Hello,

If both the roles are not synchronized, then the user will face authorization error.

Then we can conclude that both the roles are not synchronized.

Hi KoserK,

You may have to write a custom program which will read some table in SAP system which will have roles to portal groups mappings and will find the users assigned with those roles since the previous run, to generate a differential update files, which will be imported by portal.
