• Key Concepts: 
  Transaction tiering is a feature of SAP CRM-IM-IPM Intellectual Property Management that allows users to assign different levels of access to different transactions. This allows users to control who can view, edit, and delete certain transactions. It also helps to ensure that only authorized personnel can access sensitive information.
  
  How to use it: 
  Transaction tiering can be enabled by setting up user profiles and assigning them different levels of access. For example, a user profile with the highest level of access would be able to view, edit, and delete any transaction. A user profile with the lowest level of access would only be able to view certain transactions. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When setting up user profiles for transaction tiering, it is important to consider the security implications of each level of access. For example, if a user profile with the highest level of access is compromised, it could lead to unauthorized access to sensitive information.
