The performance of SAP HR Structural Authorisations can be significantly improved by indexing the structural authorisations.
The following programs are involved in the optimisation process.
RHBAUS00 (transaction S_PH0_48000110) – Builds the structural authorisations into SAP Memory (table INDX) for users with an entry in table T77UU.
RHBAUS01 (transaction S_PH0_48000111) – Removes users with no entry in T77UU from the indexing table INDX.
RHBAUS02 (transaction S_PH0_48000112) – Add or removes users from the table T77UU.
The performance of the indexing program itself can sometimes be an issue for companies with a large organisational structure or with a lot of personnel records. Appraisal objects (BA) often tend to make up a large proportion of the structural population returned by a users' structural authorisations so it is often advisable to explore options other than using structural authorisations to return these. This can make it difficult to use P_HAP_DOC to restrict appraisals using the context sensitive option. A BADI is available as an alternative.
