What do RFC interfaces and RFC security have to do with the play "Hauptmann von Köpenick" and the science fiction film "Minority Report"? Probably more than you like! RFC security and theatre?! Germany, Berlin, 1906: The 46-year-old cobbler Wilhelm Voigt dreams of returning to a normal life. After various convictions and many prison stays, he lives on the margins of society. It's not just the money he lacks. Above all, the lack of access to his social system makes him. In view of his impasse, he opts for a drastic measure. The excluded shoemaker pulls off and grates off several junk dealers to assemble a military uniform gradually. A few days later, he slips into the same disguise, successfully changes his identity and then swings through Berlin as Captain von Köpenick. He commandeers soldiers, storms the town hall and even detains the mayor. There is no doubt about the commands and their execution, because their true identity is veiled: Because of a simple disguise. A disguise that gives him all the necessary permissions he needs for his scam. At the end of the day, Wilhelm Voigt successfully compromised the Berlin government. RFC Security and Science Fiction?! USA, Washington, DC, 2054: The Washington police have long since stopped investigating murders: It prevents the killings right in advance. For this purpose, so-called "precogs" are used, which use precognition to predict and report murders in visions before they happen. At the same time, the government uses a system of public scanners that can identify all citizens clearly at any time by iris detection. One day, when policeman John Anderton himself appears as the culprit in a vision of the "Precogs," he flees the police building and decides to find out why.
The default permissions to open and use a launchpad are the SAP_UI2_USER_700. The role for the administration is SAP_UI2_ADMIN_700. In the administration interface, the launchpad can be customised, so this permission should only be released to a few users for administration.

In more complex system environments, thousands, if not tens of thousands, of SAP jobs can run per day. Their interdependencies create a high level of complexity. If administrators or admin teams want to maintain an overview, they have to rely on meaningful monitoring. It must be clear at all times which jobs are running and which are not, in order to ensure proper SAP operation. Ideally, one is informed of critical errors by e-mail or SMS. The trend towards internationalization, outsourcing and mixed operation with on-premise and on-demand systems means that SAP landscapes are often widely distributed. This makes monitoring more difficult and, at the same time, clarity must be maintained. Integrating SAP job management and job requests into a central system, such as SAP Solution Manager, therefore makes sense and is useful for supplementing IT service processes in a meaningful way and accelerating process flows.
There are the following types of Support Packages: SPAM/SAINT Update A SPAM/SAINT update (PAT) contains updates and improvements to the SAP Patch Manager and the SAP Add-On Installation Tool. FCS Support Package An FCS Support Package (FFD) brings an FCS system to the generally available release level (GA level) before other support packages can be inserted. Component Support Package One such support package (COP) applies to one software component (SAP_BASIS, SAP_HR, SAP_APPL, etc) and contains corrections for errors in the repository and in the dictionary in exactly this software component. Support Packages for the component SAP_HR include adjustments due to legal changes in addition to these corrections. A BW Support Package (BWP) is a support package for the SAP Business Information Warehouse (SAP_BW) software component and contains corrections only. Add-On Support Package An Add-On Support Package (AOP) always applies to an add-on with a specific release and includes corrections for that add-on.
The "Shortcut for SAP Systems" tool is ideal for doing many tasks in the SAP basis more easily and quickly.
