SAP Note 587410 - Test environment: Activity 16 (Execute) in S_DEVELOP

Component : Function Builder -

Solution : https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/587410 (SAP Service marketplace login required)

Summary :
Following SAP Note focuses on modifying the authorization checks in SE37 (Function Builder) from BASIS Release 6.40 onwards. Previously, users with the '03' ("Display") activity in S_DEVELOP could execute function modules. This privilege has been revoked to increase security compliance, and a new '16' ("Execute") activity is required for execution rights. The note describes necessary adjustments to roles and profiles to accommodate this change, utilizing transaction SUIM for identifying and modifying profiles lacking '16' authorization. Additionally, the note provides correction instructions for BASIS Releases below 6.40, cautioning possible code overwrites through Support Packages or upgrades.
