  • Key Concepts: 
    An operational role in SAP for Defense & Security (IS-DFS) is a set of authorization objects that define the activities a user can perform in the system. It is used to control access to certain functions and data within the system. The authorization objects are assigned to users or user groups, and can be changed or revoked at any time. 
    
    How to use it: 
    In order to use an operational role, the user must first be assigned the appropriate authorization objects. This can be done by an administrator or by using the SAP Authorization Management System (AMS). Once the authorization objects have been assigned, the user will be able to access the functions and data associated with that role. 
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    When assigning authorization objects, it is important to ensure that only those users who need access to certain functions and data are given access. This will help to ensure that only authorized users are able to access sensitive information. Additionally, it is important to regularly review and update operational roles as needed in order to ensure that users have the most up-to-date access rights.
