Validity period of role assignments
You can enter a validity period for assigning SAP roles to user accounts. If no validity period is given to the role assignments, they are allocated the following validity dates by default:
- Valid from: 1900-01-01
- Valid to : 9999-12-31
These role assignments are therefore unlimited.
The SAPUserInSAPRole table contains all role assignments, limited, and unlimited.
The HelperSAPUserInSAPRole table only contains current valid role assignments. The Daily calculation of SAP user accounts assignments to SAP roles schedule controls the calculation of this table.

Assigning the validity period of direct role assignments
Direct assignments can occur in two different ways:
-
Synchronizing role assignments
The Valid from and Valid to columns are taken into account in the default mapping. Synchronization writes the validity period of role assignments into the One Identity Manager database.
-

A validity period can be entered for direct assignment of SAP roles to user accounts. Valid from and Valid to dates are provisioned in the target system.
