What are some disadvantages of a Composite Role?

Composite roles in SAP systems group multiple single roles to simplify user assignment, but they have notable disadvantages. One disadvantage is that changes to the included single roles, such as adding or removing transactions, are not immediately visible in the composite role’s menu, requiring a renewed import to update the composite role’s structure. This delay can lead to inconsistencies during role maintenance, complicating administration. Another disadvantage is that changes to authorizations within a composite role can only be made through the included single roles, as composite roles do not allow direct authorization maintenance. This restriction limits flexibility and requires administrators to modify each single role individually, increasing effort and potential for errors. Menus from included roles can be mixed in the composite role, making option B incorrect, and deleting transactions from the composite role menu does not affect the included roles, ruling out option D. These limitations highlight the need for careful planning when using composite roles to ensure efficient and secure role management.
