Administrators

ActiveControl Administrators are the users within the customer organisation that are responsible for the ongoing maintenance and technical configuration of ActiveControl.

Within most of our organisations, these resources are typically either SAP Basis or SAP Change & Release resources.

!Basis Technologies recommend to have no more than 3-4 users as Administrators, to minimise the risk of mistakes being made to the setup of ActiveControl, and also because Administrators have extremely powerful access (eg. they can approve any Transport Form or Business Task within the workflow, even when they are not configured explicitly as an Approver in the target configuration or Rules Engine configuration.

Configuration

ActiveControl Administrators are defined in one of two ways:

1. Via ActiveControl role authorisations assigned via SU01
2. Via the Administrator app tile in the Administration screen of the Web Platform

Any user that is assigned as a Administrator via either of the above methods will be able to perform configuration on the Administration screen.

*Most of Basis Technologies customers prefer to maintain Administrators via the role authorisation method.

Administrator – assigned via role authorisations.

A user with the below authorisation assignments in SU01 of the ActiveControl Domain Controller will be able to perform the Administration functions within the product:

/BTI/TE:CTS_ADMIN_USER
/BTI/TE:STD_ADMIN_ROLE

Administrator – assigned via Administrator app tile

A user can be assigned as an Administrator via the Administrator app time on the Admin screen.
