SE54 - Assign Authorization Group to a Table

Sometimes there is a need to create a custom table in SAP. The Functional team want to restrict access to this Table.

Viola! - Authorization Groups

You could use S_TABU_NAM, but there is chance that there are tens of custom tables in your system and maintaining them individually in Roles can get out of hand. So, it's better you club them together in logical groupings - under Authorization Groups.
For example have an Authorization Group for Sensitive Finance Tables - ZFI_S

Then you can use S_TABU_DIS to provision access to these tables.

To assign an Authorization Group to an table:
  • Go to Transaction Code SE54, enter the Table Name and select Assign Authorization Group

  • Here you will find the list of all Tables which already have Authorization Groups assigned. Click on ‘New Entries’ and add your table and the relevant Authorization Group
