How to discable password change in SAP ERP (or any ABAP system)

Hello,
We have password synchronization between Sun Identity Management system and SAP ABAP systems. This ensures that the password is identical between the network ID and SAP ID. In order to avoid any issues, we would like to disable the ability of the users to change their password in the SAP system directly (on the initial logon page). This forces the users to go through Sun Identify Management system for resetting the password (desired behavior). Can you please suggest if there is a way to do this. I remember seeing an OSS note that meets the requirement a couple of years ago but now I can't find it.
Thanks
Sri

Hi Sri Vandan,
Please check note number: 379081 if it helps for you.

SAP CERTIFIED DEVELOPMENT PROFESSIONAL - ABAP SYSTEM INTERFACES WITH SAP

Hello Experts
I am Atush Rohan, I have done my "SAP Certified Development Associate - ABAP with SAP NetWeaver 7.0" on 3rd April 2009.
I want to appear for "SAP Certified Development Professional - ABAP System Interfaces with SAP NetWeaver 7.0". I have about 3 and half years or experience in SAP ABAP. And I plan to give this certificate exam in the coming 6 months.
Could you please tell me how i apply for this exam, and whether SAP provides the certificate material for the exam "P_ABAP_SI_70". Waiting for a positive reply.
Regards
Atush Rohan
Edited by: Atush Rohan on Jul 30, 2009 1:21 PM

hi,
actually you can find your sid on your certificate itself ... your sid will start with SXX .. ok now along with this you will receive an envelope in which there would be an letter where detalis regarding your sid and password for login access in sap market place will be stated... so you can login with that in server market place.... usually you get this along with the certificate and is being provided by the centres authority... now if you have not received it so you need to contact your centre and tell them to give it to you... if they dont barged then you can ask them for the concern guy's email .... this guy is the one who receives all the documents relating with your certificate .. now this guy is someone from sap labs banglore ... also if you have not received your id card so you can mail him or tell your centre authority in that case now usually the centre guys take the matters lightly ...
ok and as far as your certification exams goes i did search the pearson website they really dont have that professional certification for the abap guys but they do have one for functionals and some other....
ok now you need to approach yout nearest certification centre in that case and simply ask them that you need to appear for level 2 certification also you can contact the sap labs banglore in that case but i know that they are not responding .....
so in that matter you tell your centre that you need to schedule the certification they will charge you the certification amount and then will schedule the date..... yes they can do that.
hope this will surely help you!!!
thanks & regards,
Punit Raval.

How to handle password changes if we implement singlesignon between BO& BI7

Hi,
As we know ,we can implement single signon between BO and SAP BI 7, by importing roles and users through CMC and by selecting the option "Use Single signon during report refresh time".
My doubt here is, When we import roles from SAP and Auto import the users, is it only the SAP usernames that are stored in BO repository or both username and password. If second case holds true then how to handle/manage password change for a user who is already imported in BO sometime back?
Would the password changes be reflected automatically in BO?
Please guide me if you think that I'm thinking in a wrong direction.

Hi Naresh,
password changes are reflected automatically in BO. BO just forwards the data to the SAP side and it does the real authentification.
Regards,
Stratos
PS: Keep in mind that you cannot change the SAP password on the BO login screen if your SAP password has expired. You have to do this with the SAP client (SAP GUI)

go to transaction SICF and navigate to sap/bw/bex
double click on node Bex.
in the resulting window, go to error pages tab and under that in log on errors tab choose "System log on radiobutton" save and now try calling a webtemplte.

How to track data changes in SAP

Hello experts,
Iu2019m working on a project with a team of NON SAP architects and weu2019ve been asked to come up with some idea to keep a track of all the changes happened in SAP system by any user. So for instance let say if use makes a change and save it then this change should be gets recorded somewhere in SAP with the use, date, time, new data and pervious data. Also it should only happen when a change is made. So let say of there any change happens in SAP regardless of any t-code it should get save. Iu2019m not certain how to accomplish it. I need your expert advice please.
Thanks a lot in advance

In addition to the information given by Krishnendu Laha you can evaluate every change document with one of the reports the names of which start with RSSCD* (SA38) as well as in the causing transaction.
Keep in mind, though - not all transactions create change documents, some use other kinds of histories and some don't even do that.
You should gather the team that has been demanding those change-documentation and have them specify the business processes (or -steps) where change-documents are a conditio-sine-qua-non and check what SAP standard has in to offer you. Evaluate the gaps (if there are any) and then you can define how to bridge them.

How to track password changes in EBS R12

How to check when was the last time the apps/sysadmin passwords was changed in EBS R12.

Yes it doesn't help much since you don't have audit enabled.
If you want to get more details about enabling audit, you can simply search previous discussions for Audit and AuditTrail and you should find the docs/links you need to refer to.
There should be no impact on the performance to track password changes. Apps passwords can't be changed on the fly and it requires additional steps (i.e. running AutoConfig and bouncing the services) which can't be done in your production instance many times a day.
I'm not sure why would you need to track password changes. Is this happening in your production instance?
Thanks,
Hussein

Initial Password: Limited Validity
login/password_max_new_valid - Validity period for the passwords of newly created users
login/password_max_reset_valid - Validity period for reset passwords

How to Trigger an IDOC from SAP R/3 to two systems at a time

Hi experts,
Can any one please tell me How to Trigger an IDOC from SAP R/3 to two XI systems at a time.
My current production R/3 system sends a DELVRY03 IDOC to Production XI system ( Name : XIP) .
I would like to route the same IDOC from production R/3 system to my Quality XI System ( Name XIQ) .
Problem is production R/3 system triggers an IDOC once. We need to write a logic to route the same to two different systems
Can any one tell me how can we do that ?
Regards
Ram.

Hello Ram,
Do you have connectivity between your production & XIQ?
What does "connectivity" mean?
1. RFC destination is maintained.
2. Port defined for the RFC destination.
If no, create these. (Search in SDN for details).
If yes, proceed:
1. Define the logical system for XIQ.(BD54)
2. Define the same as your partner profile. (WE20). Add the message type SYNCH with the port for XIQ.(This is imp)
3. Create a distribution model view with sender as "your production" & receiver as XIQ.
3.1. Add the messages which you want to distribute.
3.2 Generate Partner profiles.
No coding is reqd. for this.

How to setup remote login for sap netwever 7.01 abap trial version

hi to all

if he will connect inside the same local area network http://your-local-ip-address:8000/sap/bc/gui/sap/its/webgui?sap-client=000
if he will access thru internet he needs to type your wan ip address ([http://www.whatismyip.com/|http://www.whatismyip.com/]) but before that you have to adjust your router port forwarding settings, redirect port 8000 to your local ip. You may check your router's configuration documents for more detail information.
