2.3 Configure SAP Business Suite Components
2.3.1
Define Users and Authorizations
Set up users and assign authorizations to your users in the back-end system. The following SAP Fiori apps include business roles:
● Approve Requests ● Approve Leave Request ● Approve Shopping Cart ● Approve Requisition ● Approve Purchase Order ● My Leave Requests
● Approve Purchase Contracts
These roles, in addition to the personalization settings, ensure that managers are authorized to display the correct data for their organizational entities and perform the approval activities.
a) When you enter the authorization maintenance for the role, use the role template /IWBEP/RT_MGW_USR. It contains the authorization for the OData Channel RFC function group /IWBEP/FGR_MGW_CLIENT_IF. b) Add the authorization object S_RFCACL (authorization for a trusted RFC destination between SAP
NetWeaver Gateway and SAP back-end systems). c) Maintain the correct authorization values.
d) Generate the profile.
2. Assign this technical role to the application users.
3. Copy the application-specific SAP roles in the table below into the customer namespace and maintain the authorization values correctly.
Application Role
SAP Approve Requests No role provided, but authorization must be assigned for usage of the service
Approve Leave Request SAP_GBHCM_LEAVE_APPROVAL_MGR Approve Shopping Cart SAP_GBSRM_CART_APPROVAL_MANAG Approve Purchase Requisition SAP_GBAPP_PR_APPROVAL_MANAGER Approve Purchase Order SAP_GBAPP_PO_APPROVAL_MANAGER
My Leave Requests SAP_GBHCM_LEAVE_REQUEST_EMPL and also the Gateway role SAP_HCM002_HCM_LVRQ_CR Approve Purchase Contracts SAP_SRA01_PC_APPROVAL_MANAGER
○ Alternatively, create a customer role based on SU22 entries of the SAP R3TR/IWSV service (S_SERVICE). 4. Assign the new role(s) to the application users.
For more information about users and authorizations, see User Management.
2.3.2 Configure the Back-End Event Publisher

● If you have not implemented HCM, you must implement the SD configuration around Use Sales Employees with HR (Tcode: PULT). This IMG setting copies the appropriate HMC tables from the 000 Client and allows the setup of the Employee Record with the Infotype Communication and a Subtype of System User Name (SY-UNAME) (Infotype 0105, Subtype 0001). See SAP Note 854390 for more information.
Either of the above cases produces an employee master record, which associates the USERID of the employee with the personnel number assigned as a partner function sales employee in the customer master.
