What does SAP recommend you do when you transport a custom leading business role in...

When transporting a custom leading business role in SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition, SAP recommends adding all derived business roles as dependencies to the Software Collection. This ensures that the entire role hierarchy, including the leading role and its derived roles, is transported consistently to the target system, maintaining the intended authorization structure. Derived roles inherit specific attributes and restrictions from the leading role, and including them in the Software Collection prevents issues such as missing authorizations or broken dependencies in the target environment. Adding the pre-delivered business role used as a template or other leading roles from the same Line of Business is not necessary, as these are either SAP-standard roles already available in the target system or unrelated to the custom role’s transport. This approach streamlines the transport process and ensures operational continuity.
