Authorization Profile
Combination of several authorizations. Several authorization profiles can be assigned to an authorization. Entering authorization profiles in the user master record assigns user names to authorizations. Authorization profiles are maintained directly using transaction code SU02 or are generated using the profile generator from role management (transaction PFCG ).
