Dear Erwin,

Thanks for posting it here, I am sorry I dont want to be a bad guy in the forum, but SCN has some rule, hope you agree with me.

Ok AIS -

Audit Information System (AIS) is a native SAP tool to assist in auditing both technical and business controls in SAP system. In verions SAP R/3 4.6c and earlier, AIS could be accessed using transaction SECR. As of SAP Release 4.6C (Software component SAP_APPL, Support Package SAPKH46C27), the AIS program concept has been changed from the former menu technique (Transaction SECR) to a role-based maintenance environment (Transaction PFCG).

The AIS now consists of a number of single roles. You can obtain an overview of the AIS standard roles in your system as follows:


a. Call up Transaction PFCG
b. Enter "SAP*AUDITOR*" in the "Role" field.
c. Trigger with the F4 key. Then choose "Single roles".


The single roles are divided into two groups:
a.  Transaction roles
b. Authorization roles

The transaction roles contain a menu, but have no authorization values. The authorization roles contain authorization values, but have no menu. All roles are delivered without an authorization profile.

Authorizations are usually generated on the basis of the authorization default values that are adapted to the transactions in the role menu. For AIS transaction roles, however, the authorizations had to be adjusted significantly afterwards (only display authorizations are to be permitted).

As a simplified solution, special authorization roles with appropriate authorizations are available for AIS.

All single roles are combined in composite roles to provide a better overview.
a. SAP_AUDITOR: AIS - Audit Information System
b. SAP_AUDITOR_TAX: AIS - Tax Audit

The detailed information can be obtained in SAP Note 451960.

Best Luck,

Nishan Dev
