Authorization object

Concept of authorization object

Actions and the access to data are protected by authorization objects in
the SAP system. Authorization objects allow complex checks that involve multiple
conditions that allow a user to perform an action. The conditions are
specified in authorization fields for the authorization objects and are AND
linked for the check. Authorization objects and their fields have descriptive
and technical names.

An authorization is always associated with exactly one authorization
object and contains the value for the fields for the authorization object.
An authorization is a permission to perform a certain action in the SAP
system. The action is defined on the basis of the values for the individual
fields of an authorization object.

A role is primarily a functional description
The technical realization of the role, in the form of concrete authorizations is achieved through the authorization profile associated with the role.

Composite profile

A set of profiles which are included under a single profile name is called as a composite profile (SU02)
