We review recent results on the superconformal transformation properties of the supercurrent in four‐dimensional N = 1 supersymmetric quantum field theories, considering all anomalies which affect superconformal symmetry. By introducing a curved superspace background we derive superconformal Ward identities for Green functions with multiple supercurrent insertions.
