Reference Model / Authorization concept

In many companies, users and authorizations are managed with SAP Basis. IN order that roles and authorizations need not be defined every time in an unplanned fashion - in the open countryside, as it were - Sivis offers a licensed reference model.

Information about the business functions and their sensible authorization settings are combined with information from completed projects and experience to become the reference model.

Reference model for authorizations

This base is made available in the SiAM data model. With it, carrying out authorization projects is simplified and accelerated. Definition and adaptation of functions is efficiently supported.

By means of the methodical approach, the reference model and departments are quickly and precisely tuned with the help of the functions. For this, Sivis offers a new function - SiAM profiler. More details on SiAM profiler will be gladly provided on enquiry.

In comparison to differently supported methods, the time involved is minimal and guaranteed successful.

The individual and customer-specific reference model is brought into existence after the shortest possible time. It can be immediately loaded into and used in SAP.

In comparison to other products

With the launch of a user and authorization system or with a release change (e.g. for ERP 2005), the advantages of the reference model are as follows:

• “out-of-the-box” list of sensible business functions.
• assignment of transactions to business functions.
• functionally sensible assignment of authorization objects, fields and suggested values for deployed transactions.
• classification of functions and transactions with systematic identifiers.
• standardized nomenclature with role generation.
• requirements of special departments matched and taken into consideration. 
• proven model, used many times.
• methodical, tried and tested approach for the project.
• quick and manifest project success.
