Using variables

You can set fixed values for function elements in authorization definitions. You can implement variables to use a function definition for different function instances. For this, the following is valid:

  • Variable name

    • Begins with a letter
    • Only contains letters, numbers, and underscore
    • Is enclosed in $ signs

    Example: $Var_01$

    NOTE: Variable names cannot begin with system variable names.
  • Value

    Syntax (example) SAP authorization is tested for Example for value in the SAP system
    * Any value abc | 1234
    Any string (from) Exact given value abc
    [*] The value * *
    String[*] (abc[*]) Values beginning with the given string and ending with * from*
    String* (abc[*]) Values beginning with the given string and ending with any string abc* | abcd
    Comma delimited list (abc, 1234, d*) A value contained in the list ab | 1234 | c* | cde

You can also use system variables as well as self-defined variables in the authorization definition. System variables have the following syntax: ${character}+ (example: $AUFART).

Variables must be uniquely identifiable by the authorization check. Therefore, names of self-defined variables may not match system variables or begin with system variable name.

Creating and editing function definitions

A working copy is added to the database for every function definition. Edit the working copies to create function definitions and change them. The changes are not passed on to the production function definition until the working copy is enabled. SAP authorizations are only checked on the basis of active function definitions.

NOTE: One Identity Manager users with the Identity & Access Governance | Identity Audit | Maintain SAP functions application role can edit existing working copies if they are entered as the manager in the main data.

To create a new function definition

  1. In the Manager, select the Identity Audit > SAP functions > Function definitions category.
  2. Click in the result list.
  3. Enter the function definition main data.
  4. Save the changes.

    This adds a working copy.

  5. Select the Enable working copy task and confirm the security prompt with Yes.

    This adds an enabled function definition in the database. The working copy is retained and can be used to make changes later.

To edit an existing function definition

  1. In the Manager, select the Identity Audit > SAP functions > Function definitions category.

    1. Select the function definition in the result list.
    2. Select the Create working copy task.

      The data from the existing working copy are overwritten with the data from the active function definition, after prompting. The working copy is opened and can be edited.
