• Key Concepts: 
  Second-level authorization is a feature of the GRC-SPC GRC Process Controls for SAP component. It is a security measure that requires two levels of authorization before a user can access certain sensitive data or perform certain actions. The first level of authorization is typically granted by a supervisor or manager, while the second level is granted by an administrator. This ensures that only authorized personnel have access to sensitive data and that any changes made are properly tracked and monitored.
  
  How to use it: 
  To use second-level authorization, an administrator must first set up the appropriate roles and permissions for each user. Once this is done, the user must request access to the sensitive data or action from their supervisor or manager. If approved, the supervisor or manager will grant the first level of authorization. The user then needs to request the second level of authorization from an administrator, who will review the request and either approve or deny it.
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When setting up second-level authorization, it is important to ensure that all users have the appropriate roles and permissions assigned to them. This will help ensure that only authorized personnel have access to sensitive data and that any changes made are properly tracked and monitored.
