PPP Authorizations

How to Customize PPP Access

Through the customizing of PPP Authorization, certain actions can be prohibited or allowed depending on various factors.

Open your BRF+ Application and navigate to the decision table “PPP Authorization” (Technical Name: PPP_AUTHORIZATION).

• PPP Action Code: Choose between various Action Codes provided by PPP. These codes differ in actions like: Read, Write, Create, Delete and Export and their corresponding entities (e.g. Task, Project, Item, etc.)
• Item Decision Point: Enter any Item Decision Point from the standard PPM Customizing.
• PPM Template: Enter any PPM Template from the standard PPM Customizing.
• PPM Template Phase: Enter any phase within a template (Number)
• Role Type: Enter any Role Type from the standard PPM Customizing.
• Allowed: This flag determines, if the given PPP Action Code is allowed or prohibited.

By default PPP provides no customizing for the PPP Authorization BRF+ Table to not restrict any user.

Example

• Add a row in PPP_AUTHORIZATION specifying:

  • PPP_ACTION_CODE: The specific action (e.g., WRITE_PROJECT_RESPONSIBLE).
  • Conditions such as ROLE_TYPE, PPM_TEMPLATE, or PHASE.
  • ALLOWED: Set to “True” or “false.”

• Example Entry:

• Test Permissions:

  • Assign a role to a project participant.
  • Verify the match with ROLE_TYPE and action permissions in the table.
