Subject: Use of manual security profiles with BW? (Business Information Warehouse)
Our company is currently on version 3.1H and will be moving to 4.6B late
summer 2000. Currently all of our R/3 security profiles were created
manually. We are also in the stage of developing and going live with the
add-on system of Business Warehouse (BW). For consistency, we have wish
to use manual profiles within the BW system and later convert all of our
manual security profiles (R/3 and BW) to profile generated ones.
Is there anyone else that can shed any light on this situation? (Success
or problems with using manual security profiles with BW?)
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,

Hi ,
You are going to have fun doing this upgrade. The 4.6b system is a
completely different beast than the 3.1h system. You will probably find a
lot of areas where you have to extend you manually created profiles to
cover new authorisation objects (but then you can have this at any level).
In 4.6b you really have to use the profile generator, but at least there is
a utility to allow you to pick up your manually created profile and have it
converted to an activity group for you. This will give you a running start
in this area, but you will still have a lot of work to do.
The fact that you did not use PG at 3.1h will not matter as it changed at
4.5 too and the old activity groups need the same type of conversion (we
are going through that bit right now).
Hope this helps
