3.3.1 Assign RFC Authorization to Test User
If the OData back-end service is located on a remote back-end, users need permission to perform the RFC call on the back-end system, that is, they require the authorizations
S_RFC and S_RFCACL for trusted RFC.
In this case, and if your user does not have these authorizations yet, assign a role including the RFC authorization objects to the back-end user that corresponds to the test user initially created (see
Create Test User on Front-End Server
).
Note:
You can check whether the user has the RFC authorizations in the user information system (by entering transaction
User Maintenance
(SU01) and choosing
Information
 Information System
).
3.3.2 Assign PFCG Role with OData Service Authorization to Test User
Note:
The following procedure describes how you assign the OData service to a user for just the one app (
My Leave Requests app/
Customer fact sheet).
For a productive usage of Fiori apps, you would most probably do the PFCG role assignment differently: You would create a PFCG role that contains multiple OData

3.3.3 Create Search Connectors (Fact Sheets Only)
Prerequisites:
To create search connectors, you need the following authorizations:
 SAP_ESH_SEARCH

SAP Fiori fact sheets are based on search models.
To enable the use of fact sheets, search connectors must be created for the underlying search models.
