  Functionality: 
  ACO1 allows users to define the authorization objects and values that are required for a user to access certain activities.

  Other Recommendations: 
  It is important to note that ACO1 should only be used by experienced users who understand how authorization works in SAP systems, as incorrect settings can lead to security issues or unauthorized access to activities in the system. Additionally, it is recommended that users regularly review their authorization profiles and update them as needed in order to ensure that only authorized users have access to activities in the system.
