  • Key Concepts: 
    Functional restriction is a feature of the SAP Data Control Language (BC-SEC-DCL) that allows administrators to limit user access to certain functions within the system. This is done by assigning specific roles and permissions to users, which can be used to restrict their ability to perform certain tasks. 
    
    How to use it: 
    Functional restriction can be used to ensure that users only have access to the functions they need in order to perform their job. To set up functional restriction, administrators must first create roles and assign them to users. Then, they must assign permissions to each role, which will determine what functions the user can access. 
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    When setting up functional restriction, it is important to ensure that users only have access to the functions they need in order to perform their job. It is also important to regularly review user roles and permissions in order to ensure that they are up-to-date and appropriate for each user.
