Importing function definitions

To transfer SAP functions from a development environment to a production environment, for example, you can export function definitions to CSV files. These CSV files can be imported into other databases.

When importing SAP functions from an existing CSV file, the function definitions contained in the CSV file are transferred to the database as working copies. The following data fields must be in the CSV file so that function definitions can be imported.

Field description (optional)

Describes the authorization fields, authorization objects and SAP applications.

NOTE:

  • The order of the data fields is arbitrary.

  • All required data fields must be defined in the header and must be present in the data sets.

  • Mark data fields without values with two sequential delimiters.

  • Data sets with empty mandatory fields are not imported.

To import function definitions

  1. In the Manager, select the Identity Audit category.

  2. Select the Plugins > Import SAP function definitions menu item.

  3. Select the CSV file you want to import and click Open.

  4. Confirm the security prompt with Yes.

    The functions definitions are transferred to the database as working copies. If there is already a working copy with the same name in the database, it is overwritten by the import.

Compliance rules for SAP functions

Compliance rules can be checked through effective authorizations as well as through authorizations, which an employee has in an SAP R/3 system due to their user accounts and group and role memberships. Effective write permissions are tested through SAP functions. To do this, SAP functions are added to rule conditions.

The validity period of role assignments is taken into account in the rule check.

For more information about compliance rules, see the One Identity Manager Compliance Rules Administration Guide.

Rule conditions for SAP functions

To define new rules for SAP functions

  1. In the Manager, select the Identity Audit > Rules category.

  2. Click in the result list.

  3. Enter the main data of the rule.

  4. Set the Rule for cyclical testing and risk analysis in IT Shop option.

  5. Limit the affected permissions with the at least one function option and select the SAP functions to test.

    1. If you have selected more than one SAP functions, under number of entitlements assigned, specify how many SAP functions must be matched to violate the rule.

    2. If SAP authorizations in combination result in a rule violation, enter a rule block for each SAP function.

  6. Save the changes.

    This adds a working copy.

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

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

Figure 5: Condition for SAP functions

When One Identity Manager tests rules, it finds all the employees whose assigned SAP users match the SAP functions that are given in the rule. An SAP user matches an SAP function when:

  • An SAP role assigned to the SAP user account matches the SAP function

    - OR -

  • An SAP role that is assigned a reference user matching an SAP function

    - AND -

  • The SAP user account is assigned this reference user.

For more information about creating rule conditions, see the One Identity Manager Compliance Rules Administration Guide.

Mitigating controls for compliance rules with SAP functions

Mitigating controls assigned to the function definitions to be tested are automatically copied to rules about SAP functions. Conditions:

  • Active rules are assigned to a functional area and a department.
  • The function definitions to be tested are assigned to the same functional area and to the variable set associated with the same department.
