Security - Roles and Privileges Real Time

Description

Provides real-time information about the security setup in the application. This subject area is independent of the pillar and can be used to report on roles and details across pillars like HCM, ERP, SCM and so on.

Use this subject area to report on role categories, roles, functional security policies, data security policies, and the users assigned to the roles.

You can report on the correlation between the objects like the roles that are directly assigned to another role, the roles that are inherited by the virtue of the directly assigned roles, or the functional and data security policies that are directly assigned to the roles.

For a given user, all the roles that have been assigned can also be reported.
