Purpose: Transaction SU24 maintains the USOBT_C and USOBX_C tables. These tables hold the relationships between the particular transaction and its authorization objects. It is possible to add or subtract the checks performed in the transaction by changing the appropriate flag.

The addition (check or check/maintain) flag of an authority-check only works if SAP had provided the authorization object as standard in the calling program. Do not expect the system to perform an authority-check automatically when an object is added in the list of other objects for a particular transaction code because the calling program will have no knowledge of these objects. The subtraction (or no check) of an authority-check is possible to all transaction and all objects except HR and BASIS related authorization objects.

The benefit of transaction SU24 occurs when transactions are added or deleted from Role Groups using the Profile Generator. When deleting transaction the Profile Generator will remove all authorization values that were needed for that transaction. When new transactions are added, the Profile Generator will add all authorization values needed to run the transaction(s). The addition or removal of authorization values is based upon values entered in SU24.
