The Identity SAP Sees

Whether SAP records a change under your own user or under the integration user, how to tell which applies, and what it means for authorizations and change documents.

Draft brief for authors. The business-level twin of the administrator's identity-mode page.

Contains: named user vs integration user vs the background opt-in; how to tell which applies (the processing confirmation, Background Jobs' "Identity in SAP", the history); consequences: whose SAP authorizations apply, whom SAP's change documents show, why a background run may pause when your sign-in expires, why an agent without a person cannot process some tables.

Related information: identity-mode, what-processing-does-in-sap, pause-resume-stop.
