Authorization in SAP BI
One of Authorization concept that we would like to propose to beadopted in this project is as below:
Each subject areas modules/streams in SAP BI is secured.
o For example: It will be possible to grant access to SD reports
without giving access to FI reports. Data in SAP is secured by Organization structure.
o Following is the BW authorization restriction being implemented:
Finance data is restricted by Company Code & Business Area
Logistic data is restricted by Plant Sales data is restricted by Sales Organization
