Creating a SAP password

Hi,
does a BAPI exists, that creates me the hash-value out of an entered plaintext password?
Am I am right, that the plaintext password for SAP-users is stored in table USR02 as a hash-value (field passcode)?
So my requirement is similar the requirement for user authentification, I want to create store the entered password in an transparent table and nobody should be able to recreate the plaintext out of the hash-value.
Many thanks for your help,
Christoph

Hang on a moment here... this will only fool an enduser, and not all of them either...
You should consider that anyone who can display your algorithm in the function can work out how to reverse the hash.
Also, even if you hide it, someone who can obtain the hashes can call your function from their own program and try to reproduce it using a dictionary attack (sooner or later it will match some cleartext string).
This is why SAP´s function is in the kernel, has a protected call stack (only to be called from known programs) and the hashes now have client specific attributes to them (code version F) and salted-hashes (code version H).
Cheers,
Julius

Initial password when LDAP user created i SAP?

Hi,
I'm about to configure LDAP integration with SAP, where users that exist only on the LDAP server are created in SAP.
Are any initial passwords automatically set for these users in SAP, or will an administrator have to go in and set an initial password for all created users?
Thanks, Oscar

Hi,
I assume you will use the LDAP synchronization in an ABAP system. Here you have to maintain the fields to be synchronized. The password field is typically not synchronized but you can fill in the logondata hashvalue. I never tried to get the hashvalue out of LDAP because LDAP and SAP may use different hash algorithms. The better way is to set a fixed value in the mapping. You can use SAP functions to maintain the hashvalue.
Transaction for maintaining the mapping: LDAPMAP.

How to have SAP password sync with Windows AD password

Hi All,
Can someone guide me with the setup required to have the SAP password to be in sync with the Windows Active Directory password?
Thanks
Vijay

Hello Vijay,
UME means User Management Engine which provides central user administration for all
Java applications. The UME is used as the default user store as of SAP Web Application
Server 6.40. The UME is integrated into SAP Web Application Server Java as a service.
The UME itself administers users and uses databases, directory services, or the
SAP ABAP user administration to store the data. With newer versions of SAP Web Application
Server, the UME is set as the default user store.
SAP recommends that, as of SAP Web Application Server Java
6.40, you use the UME, which is preconfigured by default during the
installation, as the user store.
The UME has its own user management administration console for
administering users. It allows to perform the routine tasks
of user administration, such as creating users and groups, role assignment,
and other actions.
The UME provides different self-service scenarios that can be used by
applications. For example, a user can change his or her data, or register as a
new user.
Security settings can be used to define minimum
password length and the number of incorrect logon attempts before a user is
locked etc
The UME logs unsuccessful logons,incorrect logon attempts,changes to user data etc
Hope this satisfies your querry to some extent.
Pl dont forget to award points if resolved.

Viewing standard projects created by SAP on IDES server

Hello,
I am working on IDES server ECC 6.0. cProject suite 4.5. I am not able to see the sample projects created by SAP because of Authorization problem. Is there any way(Admin Role etc..) by which I will be able to see projects created by SAP?
Regards,
Milind Dumbre

Hi Milind,
Are you taking about R/3 or cProject projects?
If it is cProject, if projects are already created and not shown, the mentioned below are few solutions:
1) You nees have this role in portal-SAP_CPR_PROJECT_ADMINISTRATOR along with SAP_CPR_TEMPLATE_ADMINISTRATOR for template projects and also SAP_CPR_USER.
2) Incase the roles mentioned above are already maintained for the user, check the browser you are using, it it is firefox-it is not compatible, if you are using Windows Internet Explorer- may be a cache problem.
3) To resolve the cache problem, go to - SICF t-code--> execute the transaction, in the services field type cprojects and click on filter, system will show you the service, Right click on the service anc click on Test service, enter the login id and password and login to your system.
4) Next by maintaining that, open one more tab in the explorer and mention the URL and login to the portal.
5) Now you can see the projects already created in the dropdown.
Note: Make sure you are noting using the Firefox.
If you need futher clarification revert back.

I am trying to install a Canon Pixma MG8220 which requires my Airport Extreme password. I do no know it. I then went to default Airport settings and renamed my network, but Airport required my password. How do I create a new password?

How do I create a new password for my Airport Extreme if I do not know the old password?

If you have the Mac that you used to configure the AirPort Extreme originally, you may be able to retrieve the password from KeyChain Access.
See this User Tip from forum expert Tesserax:
AirPort - Regain Access from Forgotten Passwords
If still no luck, you can reset the passwords again. Pay very close attention to the information about a Soft Reset in this Apple support document:

How do you allow a user to create a new password?

The way i have it set up right now the users are registered by the admin and a random password is provided for them to log in. When they login they're instructed to create a new password.
They click to update their information. Included in this form is an "Old Password" field and a "New Password" field. They can choose if they want to create a new one or not. So I don't want to make it a requirement.
1 - How do I validate the old password.
2 - When they type the new password and submit the update info form. It inserts the new record over the old. But only after confirming that that old password is correct. How is this done?
Or should they just type in a new password with no validation that they know the old. ? Hm.
Please let me know. Thank you.
Eddie Adolf

Hi frunsel,
if the user choose a name where already exist, the error throws out, but it clears all the register fields (all the users entrys, and i have a few fields)
humm, that´s not cool -- however...
how can i prevent this?
In this case I suggest providing a separate "check username availabilty" procedure in a blank window
(or a popup window, if you prefer) which ...
a) on page 1 has a form with one "check_username" text field, and on...
b) page 2 queries the login table´s "username" column against the textfield´s value and returns "username available" when no matching records were found, respectively "username already allocated" in case of a match.
That´s something I´d do without using ADDT, means DW´s native database related functionality are absolutely sufficient for such simple stuff

3. Follow the wizard to type a new password twice to make sure you type the correct password. You are suggested to create a new password hint, so that you can remember the password with it if you forget it.
4. Windows switches to the Windows log-in screen again where you can use the new password to log in.
Scenario 2: I have already forgotten the password.
If you have already forgotten your Windows 7 password but dont have a password reset disk at hand, you can choose another way to reset the password.
Here is how to create Windows 7 password reset CD/USB:
1. This procedure needs a CD or USB flash drive. Insert your media device into another computer which can access to system as administrator.
2. Launch Windows 7 password reset disk software. On the main interface, choose "reset Windows local account password".

I'm not sure if this is what you are asking for, but you can look at the IDOC in WE02/WE05 and look at the header segments to get the document number.

Sale process flow of SBO E-Commerce - What documents are created in SAP B1?

Dear All,
Can any one please confirm the sale process flow of SBO E-Commerce, when a customer submits an Sales Order and pays the amount online?
I am mainly interested to know about the documents, which are created in SAP B1 after the said Payment against the Order through the Web tools?

As I understand it, out of the box WebTools simply creates a B1 Sales Order from a WebTools order during the scheduled synchronization.
If you are accepting credit card payments and have configured a credit card gateway (Paypal, Skipjack, etc), then you can choose to authorise the payment only for capture later or capture the payment immediately at the time of order. Neither of these events creates any document in SAP B1. You process the order as normal and post a payment manually as part of your workflow.
If you have a credit card add-on (CitiXSys or similar) installed and specified in the WebTools Synch Manager, the normal SAP B1 processing of the Sales Order (creating a delivery document) will trigger the capture of a previously authorised credit card payment, creating and posting an A/R invoice and an associated payment document in B1.
Hope this helps you in your question.
Cheers,
Dave Bragg

Pages created a random password for my document on my iPad. I have no idea what it is and I can't open my document. HELP!!!

Pages created a random password for my document on my iPad. I have no idea what it is and I can't open my document. HELP!!!

How old is your son?
Under the Spanner in Pages there is Set Password where you create a password with hint. You really have to deliberately dig this out to do it.
Do you get a hint when you are asked for the password?
The Password is very secure, if you can't remember what it is, you will have to recreate the document.
