SAP Backend Communication S-User – Required Authorizations for Solution Manager 7.2

Solution Manager executes a variety of activities that require a connection to the SAP Support website. Including opening OSS Incidents and updating maintenance licenses on managed systems. When executing the guided procedure System Preparation within SOLMAN_SETUP you must supply solution manager with an S-user that will be used for these activities. This is done in step 3.1 RFC Connectivity, screen shot below for reference.

Due to this I always recommend that a client creates a user just for solution manager. If the user is shared with anything else and the password is changed, the functionality within solution manager that relies on this S-User will be broken. This requirement always leads to the question, what authorization does the user require.

Below is a list of the authorization required at a minimum for solution manager to function properly with the SAP Back-end.

 

  • Report an Incident
  • Close Incidents
  • Send Incidents to SAP
  • Display System Data
  • Edit My Login Data
  • Edit All Login Data
  • Edit System Data
  • Manage Installations
  • Request License Key

      Thanks for the post. I am having some issues with S-User trying to download for RCD. There seems to be 3 S-userid required  in Solman 7.2

      1) HUB Technical user  2.) Backend User 3) Communication User

      I thought the backend user does not require any authorizations? I think there is a comment in Solman_Setup.

      What is the Communication user used for and what authorizations does it need to have?

      Very confusing!!

      Hi,

      For most communication technical S-User is enough now (Which is great, because you do not have to take care of roles etc) and you can put it everywhere.

      Technical S-user should be enough even for NWDC (this feature should be undergoing testing), so RCD will be covered by this as well.

      BR, Jan
