Permissions and User Root Sets Evaluations
Calling RFC function modules
SAP_NEW represents a specific permission profile that summarises the concrete permission changes between two SAP release levels. A distinction should be made between SAP's delivery of the SAP_NEW profile and the generation of an SAP_NEW role with a corresponding profile by you as a SAP customer (see also the SAP hint 1711620). Depending on the authorisation tracking procedure, the SAP_NEW permission can be assigned to any user in a development and quality assurance system immediately after the technical system upgrade. However, the goal is to assign to each user in the production environment only permissions that they need for their business operations. In the context of upgrades, the correct permissions must be determined and integrated into the corresponding permission roles.

Every large company has to face and implement the growing legal requirements. If the use of an authorization concept is to be fully successful on this scale, the use of an authorization tool is unavoidable. For medium-sized companies, the use of an authorization tool is usually also worthwhile. However, decisions should be made on a case-by-case basis.
Maintain proposed values using trace evaluations
This missing functionality comes with SAP Note 1902038 and can only be recorded via the respective support packages for SAP NetWeaver Releases 7.31 and 7.40. The ZBV's change documents are written for the USER_CUA change document object. The analysis of the change documents can be accessed using the following methods.

The evaluation of the licence data via the ZBV with the report RSUSR_SYSINFO_LICENSE provides a result list with the following contents: Contractual User Type - This column contains the actual local user types from the ZBV subsidiary systems. Value in Central - This column contains the central user type from the ZBV that is stored for the respective subsidiary system to the user.

However, if your Identity Management system is currently not available or the approval path is interrupted, you can still assign urgently needed authorizations with "Shortcut for SAP systems".

For a long time, SAP authorization consultants and ABAP developers have disagreed on how to implement authorization object characteristics in the coding.

In the USR_CUST table, set CHECK_MOVE_4_CNG_GRP to YES.
