Renaming SAP user id's??

Hi All,
We have a requirement to rename the existing user ids in SRM. Is there any such way to do this? Its very urgent. Please let me know if have work or come accros such situation.
Regards,
parvez.

Hi,
Renaming of User ids is not possible.
You have to create New User ids.
One more problem , even if it is possible to rename , it would not be possible for the renamed user to access documents of the earlier user.
This is because each document created in SRM will have an identifier of who has created the document.

SAP users identification - rename SAP Ids

Dear all,
We have a project to change the codification of our SAP users.
We will use the AD ids as SAP users instead of the current codification.
We will copy the current user to a new one and close the current.
After this operation, all the users will lost their layout variants, their user-settings ...
Do you know if it is possible to transfer all the user-specific objects to the new user ?
Do you know if a program exists to list all the program where the SAP user is used ?
thanks for you help.
Kind regards
Véronique

Dear Lynn,
We were in SAP ECC 6.0
We created a specific program to recreate old users to new users based on an input file.
We didn't rename the user to keep the old user and keep the possibility to check the complete settings of this user.
We deleted the old user one year after.
With the specific program :
1/ we created the new user
2/ we copied some settings : layout variant, workflow settings, user settings, power list settings (linked to SAP EP)
we have the possibility to close the old user (lock and validity date) but we did it after in a second step
I hope it is clear
thanks
regards

Creating second InfoView entry point for SAP users in XI 3.1

Hi All,
I have BOE XI 3.1 up and running with the Business Objects Integration kit SAP Solutions kit I would like to create a second infoview entry point for SAP users on the same physical box (single server) as regular InfoView.
I am trying to mock this up and have detailed the following steps below. I suspect I am missing a few steps (for example, where do I specify the entry port?). I am sure step 2 is wrong, as I the desktoplaunch no longer exists in Xi 3.1
1. Copy the InfoView.war file to a new directory ( Program Files/Business Objects/ Business Objects Enterprise 12.0/java/applications/sap). I imagine I would need to rename the war file (say SAPInfoview.war)?
2. Create a xml file with the following logic (the part in bold I consider to be wrong...):
<Context docBase="Program Files\Business Objects\Business Objects Enterprise 12.0\java\applications\sap\SAPInfoview.war" path="/
businessobjects/enterprise115/desktoplaunch"
crossContext="false" debug="0" reloadable="false"
trusted="false"/>
3. Save the xml file (what name? does it matter) in Program Files\Business Objects\Tomcat55\conf\Catalina\localhost
4. Restart Tomcat
5. Change the web.xml to make SAP security the default. But this should not be the regular infoview web.xml. I'm not sure where this would reside.
Thanks,
Steve

Hi Ingo,
You've been working with Duncan and Sartaj on this. The client has two set of users: non HR which has no BW or R/3 authorization restrictions, and HR, which has authorization restrictions.
They have deployed SSO using AD for the non HR users. They also want to leverage InfoView rather than the SAP portal. For the HR users, we therefore need to capture the SAP id and password at login time to enforce security at the BW and R/3 levels. We could use the existing Infoview entry point (SSO will fail and they will be prompted for a SAP login). I do remember that we offered a second InfoView entry point for SAP users in XIR2. I thought this may be more elegant.
Thanks,
Steve

Rename SAP username - Find all references in the system

Hi all,
we want to rename (copy and create new sap user id) in our SAP system.
Now we have to find all objects and relationships where the old users are specified.
Is there a way how to find all program where the users are specified?
Z-Programs where users are specified?
Z-Customizing tables where users are specified?
Customizing settings where users are specified?
Any ideas?

Last time one of our user changed her last name we create new user id for her and then locked and deleted old account.
I don't think its possible to change username from all documents/objects/change documents which users has created under his/her id. The best, and the only way I think is to create new user id and delete/lock old one.
Regards,
Pawan.
PS: profile parameters and favourites can be copied from old user id to new or any other user id.

Oh, thanks. It seems that I must create my own java code to resolve it.
To rename the sap user id, I will have to call to the tasks, create user and later delete old user, but my question is. How could I copy, to the new user, the old user's roles and profiles?
Obrigado ;)

Renaming /sap/public for BSP applications running on WAS 6.20?

/sap/PUBLIC is created by default on the 6.20 WAS, and BSP applications fetch mime objects from /sap/PUBLIC/bsp/sap/public -- is it possible to rename /sap/PUBLIC to something else, like /sap/MYPUBLIC?

An alias would probably work just as well. However, I'm not sure if it will solve the problem we're facing: we have a complex portal running behind a reverse-proxy. Through the portal users access applications on to WASs -- both of them have files referring to /sap/public/...
The problem is that since both are behind a reverse-proxy from the user's side all the requests are made to the same host, and the reverse-proxy has to figure out by looking at the URL to which server it should forward request. So in the case of the applications on the WAS it can't distinguish between one /sap/public and the other.
I'm no BSP programmer -- suppose an alias was created -- am I right to guess that all the references in the BSP files to /sap/public will need to be manually changes to /sap/<new alias>? or is there some way to do it automatically?
Thanks,
Alon.

How to let SAP user use SSO to access Application in DMZ?

Hi All,
Our J2EE application is running on a system in DMZ which can not be connected with LDAP. So I am wondering if it's possible to let SAP user use SSO to access our application.
After talking with my colleague I think the only way is to import SSO public key to our WebAS and create user in UME and then assign user to the corresponding public key, but anybody know where to download SSP verification file or is it allowed to download and import into another system at all?
Regards,
Bin

Hi,
Take a look at this example, it uses property nodes to select tha
active plot and then changes the color of that plot.
If you want to make the number of plots dynamic you could use a for
loop and an array of color boxes.
I hope this helps.

Error while scheduling report for SAP users

Hi All,
We have SAP authentication enabled in our BO environment. (BO XI 3.1 sp2 FP 2.6 on windows 2003 server).
There are some webi reports based on BW Bex queries that we are trying to run on behalf of certain SAP end users. This we are doing using "schedule for" option.
Now what is happening here is if the end user has logged in once in BO system ,it runs fine. But in case user has not logged in to BO (using infoview etc.) ,it throws error saying "incomplete logon data" . Also if user changes or reset his password in BW and if he doesn't login to infoview after that ,system throws another error "Name or password incorrect (repeat logon)".
Based on these observation, we are suspecting if BO system uses stored SAP users credentials while scheduling report for them based on their last login.
Would like to mention here that we have checked option "automatically import users".
Please advice if this behavior is normal or we are missing some setting.
Thanks in advance,
Chandra

Hi All,
Any pointers or suggestions for this issue ??
Is there a setting/option avialable in CMC which could resolve these errors.
Or, user has to login once to infoview in all circumstances to avoid these errors.
Thanks,
Chandra

Hello Daniela,
you try to perform an offline backup (which is a very uncommon way nowadays) and your SAP system is not down.
This is also described in the official documentation:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_sm32/helpdata/en/0d/d309664a0c11d182b80000e829fbfe/content.htm
offline: Database backup in offline mode, in other words, the database is shut down during backup. When you select this parameter, BRBACKUP checks that no SAP system users are connected to the database. If an SAP System is active, the database is not shut down and BRBACKUP terminates the process with an error message (message number BR0068E).

How to Send SAP User to Spool Job instead of SAPService SID

Dear Gurus,
I have to print data using access method C (or L) via print server that runs on win 2008.
SAP AS runs on win 2003.
It works fine, but user which appears in print job is SAPService<SID>. We need here sap user who actually initiated printing. It can be obtained easily by chaning access method to G. However, this solution is not acceptable.
Thank you in advance,
Nenad

I had renamed my user login name and assumed that there will be no change in the settings and files. When I login with the new profile name everything is gone. How can I get back all my files and settings?

It is strange because it was working all right since 3 months ago and in these 2 last weeks, it is frequently this problem. Sometimes it works sometimes it does not.
Of course, I tried the connection between OIM and SAP, with the SAP login, and the connection is all OK.
My oim vertion is 9.1 and the SAP User Management connector is 9.0.4.1.
Did anybody have this problem before?
Bye!

Oh I forget, when I restart the application server, in my case the jboss, the problem is fixed. Strange...

OIM - SAP Employee Recon and SAP User Management Connectors vs. OC4J

In reading through the SAP connector documentation I've found that we cannot use OC4J to run OIM if the 9.0.3 SAP User Management Connector or SAP Employee Recon Connector is used. This is all related to a conflict in JDK versions supported between the SAP JCo (Java Connector) library and OC4J. A thought we've had is to use a Remote Manager for these connectors. Can anyone validate this approach? Is it possible to use a different JDK version with your remote manager? Is there another workaround that anyone is aware of?
Thanks

Hi,
The remote manager should work with different JDKs. We are going to be doing the same thing for one of our adapters.
As for SAP, I cannot think of another workaround -- we actually abandoned the SAP JCo approach and are doing web services with XI.
Thanks,
Deborah

Sap UM connector 9.1.2 trouble with "SAP User Management User Recon" task

Hello All,
i have a problem with Sap UM Connector version 9.1.2.
OIM version 11.1.1.5
Windows 2008 R2
Problem is:
Then accounts in Sap are created through direct provisioning feature of connector everything works ok (subsequent update or delete an account).
But if a user account is created in Sap using Sap GUI, scheduled task "SAP User Management User Recon" of connector doesn't create reconciliation event to link user.
Sometimes it does though, but for one user account created using Sap GUI in OIM created two reconciliation events, so corrsponding user in oim have two records for resource SAP.
In this reconciliation events, one have full set of attributes (Login, First Name, Last Name, E Mail, etc), another one - just these 3 attributes: IT Resource, User ID, Lock.
"SAP User Management Delete Recon" scheduled task works ok then user account has been deleted using Sap Gui.
How one can troubleshoot such behavior?
Can anyone advise please?

resolved the issue by updating sap um connector to version 9.1.2.5
