Enhancements and changes
The following enhancements and changes are implemented in Snow Optimizer for SAP® Software 3.2:
Reports
Reports for ABAP systems
-
In CPU consumption profile analysis, you can select a reference usage profile to determine whether this usage profile fits the user better than the current usage profile.
-
In User authorizations, the performance for showing user role details in the report result has improved.
-
In Role usage analysis results, you can choose between a compact and a detailed view that shows the transactions used in the roles individually.
Reports for loading data from ABAP systems
-
Loading of tables is adapted to the SQL changes of recent SAP releases.
-
In non-periodic data, there is an option to load only role data instead of full authorization data to avoid data overload.
-
The option to load only currently valid users of non-periodic data is activated by default.
-
The absolute specification for loading periodic data is preset to the current month plus two months in the past.
More reports

In User reconciliation, you can select only currently valid users to limit the report results.

Contract management
-
When adding a product to a license contract, you can select whether the license model is perpetual or subscription.

Product license
-
Product license shows information about the system ID, client, installation number, and release of the master system on that Snow Optimizer for SAP® Software is installed.
