In SAP role maintenance, a status text value of "Old" indicates that the field values for an authorization in an existing role were unchanged and no new authorizations were added. This status appears during PFCG role maintenance when comparing or updating authorizations, showing that the authorization object or field values have not been modified since the last maintenance and no additional permissions have been included. It reflects a stable state, ensuring that the role’s existing permissions remain intact without unintended changes. Option A is less precise, as it does not address the absence of new authorizations. Option B describes a scenario where changes were made but reverted, which is not "Old." Option C relates to merged authorizations, not the "Old" status. The "Old" status helps administrators confirm that no updates were applied, supporting consistent role management and preventing accidental modifications during maintenance in SAP systems.
