How to assign roles to positions?

[Former Member]

Hello everyone,

I am new in SAP HR field and my question could be very basic but would really appreciate your reply:

" I am configuring Indirect Role assignment model and want to use it to assign positions to users.

Now, I want to know how are these positions linked to actual roles and from where can I assign some roles to my positions? "

Thanks

HI Harleen,

Transaction PFCG make sure under the goto menu you select Complete View (Organizational Management and workflow) selected, go into your role and under the user tab you should see the Organizational Mgt button, look up and assign your position from within there. (Buttons for assignment on next screens toolbar once you select the org.button)

then run Transaction PFUD (can be scheduled) will perform the reconciliation each night etc.

Create PD Profiles infotype for that position in the transaction code PP01

Hi Harleen

As you know, we have both Standard and Structural authorizations in SAP HR

1. Standard Authorization

If you want to assign Standard Authorizations to a Position, you need to create Relationship b/w Object type S and AG (You need to have authorization to PFCG T code in this case)

I am not very sure if SAP has provided any standard program to assign the Standard Authorizations which are avaialble against a position to a User.

2. If you want to assign Structural Authorizations to a Position and in turn to a User

Create Structural authorization profiles in OOSP, assign the same to position by creating Infotype 1017 for a Position and run RHPROFL0 program to update the same to the USER (T77UA) who is occupying the position (A008 Relationship b/w S & P and IT 0105 against P)

Hope this helps

Best Regards
