Factsheet apps authorization restriction :

Once you activate software component : SAPAPPLH, you can see all the search models which are available and activated.

Take an example, that user wants to access only the specific factsheet apps. You might be thinking that only specific search connector/model needs to be activated. But no, in this case we need to handle the authorization of search models by manually adding search connectors to the authorization objects in PFCG.

Authorization object name : S_ESH_CONN

Template name : TEMPL_NAME
