 In this episode, Ross Robertson and Wehmeyer Ferreira, SAP Senior Authorisations and Security Consultants at Soterion, walk through how to use the Legacy System Migration Workbench (LSMW) to perform mass maintenance of data subjects in SAP – specifically focused on bulk role deletions within the authorisations space.
