Authorizations
Teaming up with an external security implementation partner comes with a higher guarantee that the authorizations part of the project receives the required attention and care. There is less risk that the authorizations are neglected because of time constraints in the functional part of the project. This project configuration has a considerable positive impact on the quality of the overall implementation and the quality of the authorizations. Because it is our core business, axl & trax offers a proven methodology. We enable business people to understand the SAP authorizations down to the required level (tasks) and combining ability with the technical aspects of the SAP authorization profiles. We offer experience, existing documents, presentations, etc. available to the company. On average, saving up to 60% of maintenance costs is no exception and can be vouched for by customers statements. For many companies we already have setup a worldwide, cross-SAP® system authorization architecture and/or implemented a full automated monitoring cycle. For other companies we have analyzed the authorization setup.
Authorizations Quick Scan
Because axl & trax has a "one-to-one-step-by-step-no-nonsense" approach, we always prefer to start by employing our proven Authorizations Quick Scan method. This analysis, which is performed from an audit perspective, enables us to rapidly gain a global insight into the actual state of your authorizations. We especially focus on the conceptual aspects of the authorizations setup which informs us as to which procedures must be put in place or must be optimized. Based on the quick scan results we can then distil a detailed project plan featuring all the steps to be taken in order to get you fully compliant.
Authorizations Implementations and Redesigns
axl & trax ranks among the worldwide leading authorization concept architects and offers an extensive scope of customized GRC solutions. The company has a unique implementation methodology and authorizations concept and combines a sound insight into business requirements with profound technical know-how. axl & trax also has a proven track record for providing global authorization concepts for full SAP® technology platforms (R/3, ECC, HR, BW/BI, APO, CRM…) both on new and existing systems. axl & trax should therefore be your first choice GRC solutions partner to set up new authorizations or to redesign existing ones and to make sure that your authorizations concept is and stays sound and secure.
Authorizations Upgrade Support
It is evident that with every new SAP® release your actual authorization settings must be upgraded, but at times the authorization mechanism itself is drastically changed by SAP® (f.e. SAP® BI 7.0). Because these adaptations can be pretty complex, axl & trax should be your preferred partner in order to make sure your authorizations are fully in line with the upgraded version and to take full advantage of the new features incorporated in the new release.
Quality assurance during SAP® authorizations implementations and redesigns
In cases where a company decides to perform most of the work
themselves or in cases the company wants an independent view on the
work done by another third party, the expertise of axl & trax can
be hired to ensure good implementation practices are applied.
