To connect and retrieve data from a SAP System, j5 requires a RFC user in SAP with sufficient authorization to access the required data. To create a user with the necessary authorization:
-
Create a custom j5 RFC authorization role.
-
Assign the relevant authorization objects and field values to the role.

When the field value is * (for example, Maintenance Site - I_SWERK), the j5 user is granted authorization for all maintenance sites. If you require a more restricted list, enter the specific list of values for these fields instead.
For calls made via SAP PI (PO) middleware, assign the SAP_XI_APPL_SERV_USER (Process Integration: Service User for Application Systems) authorization role to the user account.
The table above was determined by multiple, separate authorization traces. Additional
authorization objects may be required at some customer sites post-deployment. For
example, you may need to assign custom authorization objects to the role if you have
made modifications to the standard SAP code.
-
Assign the role to the j5 user.
