d) Only users with SAP_ALL authorizations can broadcast from transaction sm03.

sm02 is a very useful transaction for communicating system changes or alerts to the entire community of SAP users. Most importantly, it can be used to broadcast messages regarding security profile changes so users will be aware of downtime or any change or information about the system.
