The challenge with existing SAP systems

A chaotic mixture of roles and users has developed in your SAP system and continues to grow. Authorizations keep expanding, and mother roles and reference users are copied without proper oversight. New departments or branches are added monthly, and employee authorization requests are regularly extended. This situation can lead to potential misuse and security gaps in your SAP system.

Protect your organization from unauthorized access to your sensitive SAP data. The Role Reducing Quick Check identifies unused roles and authorizations and provides clear recommendations for action.

How the Pointsharp Role Reducing Quick Check works

We deploy a small ABAP transport into your system to enable long-term trace collection via ST01. After approximately four months, a solid trace base has been established, allowing us to perform comprehensive and reliable calculations. The traces and the authorization concept are now exported and sent to Pointsharp for further analysis.

Analysis of your existing authorization concept

At Pointsharp, the data is imported into one of our systems and processed. Considering the complete authorization concept and all collected traces, an algorithm calculates which assignments can be removed without causing users to lose necessary authorizations.

The result of the analysis

Our calculations reveal removable user roles, role roles, and role authorization assignments. In a presentation, we will show you samples of the results along with the overall optimization potential that has become evident through the Role Reducing Quick Check.

Our Goal: No uncontrolled growth

To give you a thorough overview of unused SAP roles, we test your SAP authorization setup in the Pointsharp lab. Then, we will provide you with all necessary recommendations to remove unnecessary roles from your SAP system and prevent misuse in the future.
