Abstract
An enterprise system may separate the executable functionality existing in backend applications, and the separation may be at differing levels of granularity. The separated functions of the application may be registered in a catalog in the form of metadata objects. Once the executable functionality has been registered, the authorization information for each granular functional object may be associated with authorization information. In this manner, the authorization of a service of an application may be made on a feature by feature (or object by object) basis in a unified manner.
