SSO Using SAP GUI Logon
Here's my question gurus...
Is there a way to enable SSO so that, after a user authenticates themselves within the portal, go back to the standard Windows SAP GUI Logon(pad) select the system enter the desired client and logon with having to provide a username and password? The credentials would be passed from the portal to the connected backend system.
We currently have a slew of systems and there corresponding clients it would be awesome to sync all systems with the portal and only have to administer passwords from and for the portal. Consequently the portal would handle the rest. The folks here have not fully embraced using the html version of the gui hence the reason for this posting.
Hi Mike,
If i understood your requirement, You want to use SAP functionality form portal.
You Can do that, by creating a SAP System from your portal and you can call any Transactions from the portal it self, by using that System.
How to create System and User mapping for that System you can find in the below link. It may helpful to you. Ping me back, if you have any doubts.

Please correct me, if i am wrong.

Client ID range for SAP GUI logon?
Hi,
Does anyone know what is the range of client IDs allowed for SAP GUI logon? I am assuming it to be 000-999. Is that correct?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
VenkatHi venkata,
As Cherry mentioned above you can choose any client with exception of <b>000 SAP AG</b>, <b>001 Auslieferungsmandant</b> R11 and <b>066 Early Watch</b>, you can use the rest 997 clients to setup your system.
Hope this help!

How can i find SAP Gui logon pad version
how can i find SAP Gui logon pad version ?
Hi,
That's easy. At the top of the logon, you see a title bar with a general version indication. At the most left of it, you'll see an icon. Click on that and choose about SAP logon and you'll get detailed info.

Insert Button on SAP GUI Logon Screen
Hello,
is it possible to insert a button on the SAP GUI logon screen like the "new password" button?
We want to insert a button, with which the user can generate a new initial password, if he has forgotten his password.
Thanks for answers
regards

I fully agree.

Well, I'd propose to leave the SAPGUI screen untouched but only place a comment on the logon screen (see [note 205487|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/205487]) which informs the user on a URL to a web application (BSP) which provides the desired "forgotten password" self-service functionality.
In the internet you find many examples of such "forgotten password" self-services - good ones and not so good ones. What all of them have in common is the requirement that the user has provided a valid email address or mobile number (during the account registration) which can be used for the required off-band communication. However they differentiate in the way they try to mitigate misuse: some prompt for a so-called passphrase (in most cases: the user has entered a free-text answer to a question chosen from a fixed set of predefined questions, during accoutn registration) before sending a newly created password to the email address retrieved from the user account; others generate a (random) "password change token" which they send to the email address and prompt the user to enter this "password change token" on the webpage (the account remains untouched until the correct "password change token" was entered, in most cases this is also time-restricted). I prefer the latter one.

Export SAP GUI Logon system properites to another laptop
Hi, SDN Fellows.
I want to run SAP GUI logon systems in another laptop. After installing a new SAP GUI client. Instead of re-add the logon system properties, is that a way I can export and import from another laptop? Say I have 10 logon system properties (some with application server and some with logon groups), how do I pick the 8 of 10, and export to another SAP GUI in another laptop?
Thanks,
KentHello Kent,
for SAP GUI for Windows 6.20 or 6.40, please have a look at [SAP note 512040|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/512040], for SAP GUI for Windows 7.10 refer to [SAP note 1035560|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1035560] and for SAP GUI for Java please read chapter 7 of the manual included in the SAP GUI for Java installation.

Unable to Print Purchase order automatically using SAP GUI for JAVA
Hi SAP gurus,
Some of the PC's in our company use windows and some LINUX. Therefore we use two types of SAP GUI. One for windows and the other one JAVA. PO approval was set to print automatically. In a windows setting, there are no problems with this setup. But in SAP GUI for JAVA, no print outs are produced and no error messages are displayed. I am using SAP GUI for JAVA version 7.10 ver 6. and I use Front end printing for linux access method G.
please help,
gungertzhi gungertz,
You can use U type access method for printing SAP document using linux desktop.
Please refer to my blog posting here (http://sapbasis.wordpress.com/2007/08/23/print-sap-documents-using-linux/)

Load a flat file into BW-BPS using SAP GUI
Hi,
We are using BW BPS 3.5 version, i implemented how to guide " How to load a flat file into BW-BPS using SAP GUI" successfully without any errors.
I inlcuded three infoobjects in the text file costelemt, Posting period and amount. the same three infoobjects i inlcuded the file structure in the global data as specified in the how to document
The flat file format is like this
Costelmnt Postingperiod Amount
XXXXX #
XXXXX 1 100
XXXXX 2 800
XXXXX 3 700
XXXXX 4 500
XXXXX 5 300
XXXXX 6 200
XXXXX 7 270
XXXXX 8 120
XXXXX 9 145
XXXXX 10 340
XXXXX 11 147
XXXXX 12 900
I successfully loaded above flat file in to BPS cube and it dispalyed in the layout also.
But users are requesting to load flatfile in the below format
Costelmnt Annual(PP=#) Jan(PP=1) Feb(PP=2) ........................................Dec(PP=12)
XXXXX Blank 100 800 900
Is it possible to load a flat file like this
They wants load a single row instead of 13 rows for each costelement
How to do this. Please suggest me if anybody accorss this requirment.
In the infocube we have got only one Info object 0FISCPER3(Posting period) and one 0AMOUNT(Amount)
do we need 13 Infobjects for each posting period and amount.
Is there any possiblity we can implement any user exit which we use in BEX Quer's
Please share your ideas on this.
Thanks in advance
Best regards
SSHi,
There are 2 ways to do this.
One is to change the structure of the cube to have 12 key figures for the 12 posting periods.
Another way is to write an ABAP Function Module to fetch the values from each record based on the posting period and store it in the cube for the corresponding characteristic. This way, you dont have to change the structure of the cube.
If this particular cube is not used anywhere else, I would suggest to change the structure itself.
Hope this helps. -
How to deliver items in SAP R/3 using sap gui
Hi all,
I have created an order.I want to deliver the items contained in it. pls tell me how to do it using sap gui.
Regards,
Kiran.Hi Anil
You can create a normal ABAP report to delete or modify records from database table.
You can use statements such as delete or modify for this purpose.
First select the records from table bring them into internal table and use that table to delete the records from database.
Note: If you are trying to delete records from Z tables then this approch can be adopted but if you are dealing with Standard tables it`s not a option to directly delte the reocrds from database table .
For that purpose you can use BDC or any othe available FM/BAPI.
Note :When you are deleting records from the database table please use locking function module to lock the database entries.
