What is the difference between User group in LOGON DATA tab
and user group in GROUPS tab in SU01 t code?

Answer Posted / rajesh srisailapu

Hi ,

"Groups" tab in SU01

By using "Groups" tab in SU01, we can allocate user group
to number of users at a time, this is for find the list of
users of a particular user group but we cannot restrict any
user to any region or any location.

User Group in "Logon data"

If we assign any user to User Group in Logon data of SU01,
then user will restrict to particular user group or region
or location. Whenever user trying to do any activity other
than this user group, then system will show “You are not
authorized to "XXXX user group.” Even though user have the
access for particular activity.

Ex: Let us assume some ABC Project, its having multiple
locations like India(SEC_IN), China (SEC_CN), Australia
(SEC_AU)…etc. Each location having individual security
admin with respective user groups. Now India security admin
trying to do password reset to any cross country user like
China user(as per urgency/requirement)then system will
show “You are not authorized to reset password
to “SEC_CN” user group.” Because India security admin is
assign to SEC_IN user group. like this way we can restrict
the users with User Group in Logon data of SU01.

This is the main Difference between User Group in "Logon
data" and "Groups" tab in SU01.
