KB0026 – Responsibility Authorisations

Promenta makes use of standard SAP functionality for workflow routing – SAP Workflow Responsibilities. These can be maintained via transaction OOCU_RESP or through the Promenta tool.

Disclaimer

Promenta are providing this information to help customers in their own analysis of authorisation requirements. Promenta do not provide authorisation consultancy and are not providing recommendations on how customs should set up their own authorisations. 

Promenta do not accept any responsibility for authorisation-related issues except where the objects are provided by Promenta. 

SAP HR Integration

Due to historic design decisions taken by SAP the responsibility maintenance functions use the the Organisation Management (OM) tables to store data such as HRP1000, HRP1001. As such OM authorisations are needed to read the data in the Promenta solution.

Responsibilities do not use HR data except if you link HR objects to them (Org unit, position, person).
