Your idea of just inserting a Transaction into the Profile's S-Tcode is great and we have been using it, actually frequently. However, there is a hidden problem occurring. I'll explain in point form: Edit single role. Edit Profile and enter the transaction, just like you said. If the single role is part of a few composite roles and you do NOT re-read each composite role...in SUIM you don't get displayed all roles with the profile's transaction - this brings unreal results. At the moment I'm writing a program to access all composite roles through the profile instead of single roles.
Try it! Just create a couple of composite roles using the one single role. Then go to the single roles' Profile and add a new TC, generate. Go to SUIM and inquire on the S-Tcode and in input values request your entered tc.
You are absolutely right. But, to be honest... This is nothing new, SUIM has been inconsistent since 3.1G. I wouldn't bother with the program; I would put an OSS note into SAP. They generally are pretty good about fixing these types of glitches. Good to hear from you again.
