User mapping settings

Hello All,
If Personalisation features has been configured in such a way that a user can set his own password, and that too user id and password required to a 3rd party system.
Like a user in a portal wants to login to a SAP R3 system. And he should also be in a position to give his logon credentials with a 3rd party interference.
Thanks in advance,
PKS.

Hi Sachin,
sorry, but I'm not sure if I understood your question. At least, it doesn't seem to be a question at all (grammatically).
But let me guess:
- You want to configure your portal in a way, that users can set their password by themselves
- You also want to connect to a third party system (let me guess: R/3) via portal
- You ask yourself if these two things interfere with each other.
Here's the answer: The logon to portal and the logon to R/3 are completely different things. You may configure SSO between portal and R/3 using 'SAP Logon Ticket' or 'User Mapping'. The logon mechanism to R/3 is not 'disturbed', even if the user changes his portal password.
Hope this matches your issue. If not please come back with some better english.

File System Repository - User Mapping not Working

Hi,
I tried to integrate a file system into KM. For doing so, I followed the guide located at [http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/ed/b334ea02a2704388d1d2fc3e4298ad/frameset.htm|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/ed/b334ea02a2704388d1d2fc3e4298ad/frameset.htm].
The only problem is, tht the user mapping doesn't seem to work...
The portal is running on a UNIX system, whereas the file share to be integrated is running on a Windows 2003 Server.
Here are the single steps that I performed:
- Creation of a KM Windows System in the system landscape directory with the ID "MySystem". User Mapping is set to "User,Admin"
- Creation of a Windows System in the system landscpe of the KM with the ID "MySystem"
- Creation of a Network Path in KM with following settings:
jCIFS Protocol is activated; Network Path = "
My Server\My Share"; User = "My Windows Domain\My User" and the according password. The specified user has administration permissions on the server.
- Creation of a readonly File System Repository Manager with following settings:
Root-Directory = "
My Server\My Share", SecurityManager = W2kSecurityManager, ACL Manager Cache = ca_rsrc_acl, Windows Landscape System = "MySystem"
- Configuration of the W2KSecurityManager: I specified the DomainFile-setting as "/etc/companydomaincontrollers.txt"
and placed such a file in the KM with following setting: "My.Server.Domain=According IP Adress"
- In UME I carried out user mapping for index_service user and placed the above mentioned admin user into the user mapping.
Result: The indexing works fine, all fles are indexed. When I however try to carry out a user mapping for a "normal" portal user in the UME it doesn't work: The portal user has no access to the file system. (I used the same admin user for mapping... so it should work).
Any help is appreciated...
P.S. With portal super admin users I can however access the fle system repository, even without user mapping. But I think this is ok, because I read in one forum message that admin users have always access in general....

Hi Frank,
thanks for your reply.
I have as well definied an Alias Name with exactly the same id. So this gives us following:
System landscape directory: KM Windows System with id="MySystem" and Alias="MySystem"
KM System Landscape: Windows System with id="MySystem"
In the created file system repository manager I also set "MySystem" for the Windows Landscape System parameter.
So I think that this should be correct (I also considered upper- and lowercase letters).
Maybe the probem lies in specifying the domain names? When I applied user mapping I always additionally specified the Windows domain name of the users, which is correct I think.
In the security manager configuration for the domain controllers (-> [http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/a9/c54e9e09448d46b73d154e93d5e995/content.htm]) I however mapped the network domain of the file share server to the according IP adress. Maybe this is wrong?

Seeburger Splitter:Fatal error in user mapping . java.lang.StackOverflowErr

Hello,
I have created a mapping E2X_SLSRPT_UN_D96A as we didnt have the standard mapping(See_) from Seeburger
In my scenario when I give hardcoded mapping name ,it works fine,so I assume mapping is correctly created and deployed.
But I need to use it with splitter,and in doing so,I am getting this error:

Has anyone encountered this error before?
Kindly let me know
Thanks.

Hi,
    I understand that you need to use Custom mapping for your EDIFACT Message...
Then did you created the generic mapping with Clasasifier ID...i.e ABC_edifact... (By default it will be See_Edifact)
so you need to create the generic mapping by Name provided in classifier ID of settings then....
need to create the child mapping in such a way that it calls the same (developed one...)
in default cases See_Edifact frames the child mapping name to be called based on the messages received ...
similarly your generic mapping need to call your child mapping....
Hope this clears you

SSO to Exchange without user mapping

I have Exchange configured for collabration groupware integration, and it works fine. I can get my calander entries without a problem when I have a user mapping set for the Exchange Transport. I have SSO enabled using the iis_proxy.dll authenticating via Active Directory also without a problem. I can also connect to OWA without any issue. The only thing I don't like is that I need a user mapping for the calander availabity.
Does anyone know of a way to make this more automatic? I don't want the users to need to maintain their own mappings.

We are in the exact same situation. I thought that the SSO22KerbMap ISAPI filter would do just that but the user mapping is required no matter what, unless I'm missing something in my config. The Exchange and Active Directory users are the same so a user mapping should not be required.

How to set/get the values thru Wedbynpro coding for User mapping fields

Hi All
In system object we have the user mapping fields like District,city,plant,Salesmanager.
now we want to set/get the values of these usermapping fields of system object thru webdynpro coding...
if anybody have sample codes of the same then it would be great help to me
Thanks in advance
Thanks
Trisha Rani

Hi Kavitha
Thanks for your reply
My requirement is exactly as follows.
1) i have created one portal system object in system administration and also i created usermapping fields in the system object from the usermanagement in system object.
i created the user mapping fields like Plant,SalesManager,District etc.
i also created the system alias name for the same system object
2) Now i came to persoanlize link and mapped the system object to the portal user.
while mapping to the system object we need to enter Mapping userId, Password , once we enter these values and we can also enter the values of usermapping fields which we defined while creating the system object ( for example District,Salesmanager,Plant etc)
once we enter all the values and click on save then these usermapping values to be mapped to the portal user.
3) Now my requirement is , i want to control the usermapping field values thru webdynpro coding for setting/getting the values.
I need sample code of the same.
Please let me know if u need more details on the same.
Thanks

SSO and User Mapping at same time

Hi,
Can we use SSO and User mapping at same time between Portal and SAP Backend system?
For some of the users the user id is different in both end.
After implementing the SSO... Will it affect the existing user mapping? and the system alias created for that?
If not, Can we use both SSO and user Mapping same time?
Thanks,
VB

Hi VB,
In this case I suggest you create 2 systems one you might have created for users who are having common user ids in portal & at the backend system.
For the users whose ids are defeering you can create reference system and in user managemant property of that system
Authentication Ticket Type - Select -SAP Logon TicketSAP Assertion Ticket
Logon Method - UWPW
User Mapping Fields - {100,200,300}Client;Language
where 100,200,300 are the clients of the backend system.
Assign this system in the ivews.
Thanks,
Vishal

How can I add an iPad to Apple Configurator without losing the user's settings, folders, etc?

When attempting to add an iPad that has already been in use (for some time) by a particular user into Apple Configurator, I end up having to either wipe the iPad entirely as if it is a new iPad, or restore the user's settings and configuration from iCloud during mini-setup. It seems to be one choice or the other.
Is there a way to add the "old" iPad into Apple Configurator for management purposes yet still be able to restore the user's settings from iCloud? That is - items like: folders, pictures, email settings, app data?

This isnt true. Connecting an unsupervised device to configurator and supervising it will wipe the device, there is no way around that. You can attempt an iCloud restore from here, but anything not backed up prior to supervising the device will be erased when supervising it. I have never tried to restore data from an unsupervised iPad so I have no clue if everything will come back.
Let me clarify... You can successfully restore an iCloud backup of an unsupervised iPad to a new (i.e. different) iPad and have it Supervised with data intact. The process below will allow Configurator to Supervise a device without wiping it when an iCloud backup from a different unsupervised iPad is restored to it.
Try it… Get 2 new unsupervised iPads… we'll call them iPad "A" and iPad "B." Take iPad "A" and install a few apps, take a few photos, change the background, create a new document in Pages, etc. Run an iCloud backup of iPad "A" using your Apple ID. This is our unsupervised backup of iPad "A."
Now take new unsupervised iPad "B" and start running through the setup assistant. When you get to the restore screen, choose to restore from iCloud backup. Log in with your Apple ID. Select the backup for iPad "A." The backup will restore and then the iPad will restart. Once it restarts, you get to a "Hello" screen on the iPad. At this point, plug the iPad into your Configurator computer. On the Prepare screen, turn Supervision ON and select "Don't restore backup." Click Prepare.
Configurator will not wipe the iPad. It will run through the supervision process but not wipe it. Once complete, you'll see that iPad "B" is now exactly the same as iPad "A", but if you go to Settings -> General -> Profiles on iPad "B" you will see a Supervision profile installed.
The key here is to use a different iPad from the originally backed up iPad. You can't restore the backup of iPad "A" to iPad "A" again and supervise it without wiping it. But you can take the backup of unsupervised iPad "A" and restore it to iPad "B" and retain apps, data, and settings of iPad "A" but with the Supervision profile.
Hope this clarifies things!
~Joe
I see where your going with that. I dont have any way to reproduce this scenario in my environment, but I will take your word for it that this works. I have only ever plugged in an unsupervised device to configurator and gone through the setup, which always wipes the device. If your saying theres a way around that you should give that a shot OP.

How do I import gradient map settings from one computer to another?

Quick Question,
How do I import my gradient map settings from CS3 on my old I mac into my new Mac that uses CS6? Is there a folder somewhere that I can just copy and paste?
Thanks,
Mike

1
Start Adobe Photoshop CS3 and open an image from your files to which you want to apply a gradient map.
2
Select the "Image" menu, point to "Adjustments" and click on "Gradient Map" to open the "Gradient Map" dialog box.
3
Choose the gradient you want to use for the gradient map by clicking on the "Gradient Picker" drop-down box. Click on the gradient preset you want to use for the gradient mapping. You will see that in the background the gradient has been applied to your open image.
4
Click on the gradient fill that you have chosen to open the "Gradient Editor" if you want to edit the gradient preset. Make any changes in this dialog box and click the "OK" button to close the box and return to your gradient map.
5
Set any final options to apply to your gradient map. Check "Dither" under "Gradient Options" to add noise to smooth the bands of your gradient and/or "Reverse" to switch the direction of the gradient map.
6
Use the "OK" button to close the "Gradient Map" dialog box and return your image to which the gradient map is now applied.
Is that what you were asking?
Hope it helps.

Date Manipulation Depending on the various user date settings

hi,
I have a query.
In scripts, user date format setting is YYYY.MM.DD, values stored the table MHND are also in the format YYYY.MM.DD.
However when i pass the date values from MHND from form to subroutine pool the dates are available in the format DD.MM.YYYY in the subpool.
I want to calculate the diffenece between two dates. I have checked the function modules to calculate the differece betweent 2 dates those acccepts dates with type YYYYMMDD.
However i tried to bring my dates in from YYYY.MM.DD into YYYYMMDD format by using CONVERT_DATE_INTERNAL function module... That is not working as the user date format is YYYY.MM.DD and the dates are coming in subpool in DD.MM.YYYY format....
Please suggest me the approach the relavant function modules.... so as to manipulate the dates based on the user date settings.
Looking forward for your replies. Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Anuja.

hi anuja,
Try using the following formatting script symbol in your form routine
For example, you are passing the date into the subroutine then put K after the date field like below.
&date(K)& .
or
use SET DATE MASK : YYYY:MM:DD
Thanks,

User Mapping to R/3 - admin.pwdprotection=false but still pwd field appears

 
Hello All, 
I am doing SSO using user mapping to R/3 system from Portal as the ids are different for Portal and R/3. 
I can access a transaction iview from R/3 successfully using user mapping(in SSO) but the problem is everytime a user changes his R/3 password, the mapped password is to be changed in Portal.Otherwise, unable to access transaction iview. 
1) I have changed the property ume.usermapping.admin.pwdprotection=false in configtool but still in User Admin > User mapping for system access , the password field is populated and while accessing the R/3, the password is being verified. I have seen in another system where the password field is not being asked after modifying the property to false, only id field is present. From the end user, under Personalize > User Profile > User Mapping for system, no systems are present as expected for mapping. Logon method in system is uidpw and mapping type is "Admin". 
Versions - Portal is NW7.0 SP18 and ECC is .0 EhP3. 
anybody faced the same problem? Is there a note to fix it? 
2)Also, in the User Admin > User mapping for system access , in the dropdown I can see the system aliases I have created in systems but not in System admin> sys config > Ume config > under User Mapping , I do not find any reference system. 
After first restart it was not there, after some time it has come, later it was coming as configured but invalid beside the system in braces in dropdown like abc(configured but invalid). Once I unselected, now it is no more available in dropdown. 
3) I have used diagtool to identify the problem. In the ticket, how do I see the mapped user? 
I am seeing only the following details.From the log - 
The created ticket is: 
[ [Ticket [initialized] 
Ticket Version = 0 
Ticket Codepage = (Encoding=1100) 
User = 121444 
Issuing System ID = EPD ( Portal name) 
Issuing System Client = 000 
Creation Time = 200905150649 
Valid Time = 8 h 0 min

InfoUnit id=5, length=4 
InfoUnit id=10, length=9 
]. 
Authentication stack: [ticket]. 
 
Does this have an entry for mapped user of target R/3 system also? 
If I am not finding the userid/pwd in ticket, how is SSO working? based on user mapping only? 
Thanks, 
Isvarya 

Thanks Anja for the quick response.
My primary objective is to use SSO with logon tickets to backend which is independent of user passwords.
regarding 1)
From the link -
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/f8/3b514ca29011d5bdeb006094191908/frameset.htm
Features
● Either users or administrators can perform user mapping.
¡ Users must always enter a password to validate their mapped user ID.
This password is not stored, but is used to confirm that the user is entering a user ID with which he or she has access to the ABAP-based system.
○ Administrators can enter a password to validate their entries.
The UME property ume.usermapping.admin.pwdprotection defines whether or not the administrator must enter a password. By default the administrator must enter one.
is also in the same lines.
But as per the SAP library link, I do not find a reference system because of problem 2 in the initial post.
Also, I have a screenshot of user admin where the password field itself is not present. If you can share your email id, I will send the scrnshot without pwd and mine with password.
2)I have seen this note. But, none of the 3 cases mentioned are applicable to me..user mapping is working just fine..Only reference system is not populated.
3) Becuase of 1, I was expecting to see mapped id alone or mapped id along with system name in logon tickets.
Thanks for the response.

Hi,
yes, Karsten is correct. Just some background:
"User Mapping not fully available.." finally means that user mapping is configured to use strong encryption, but the main crypto key for user mapping is missing. Usually, that's because "SAP Java Cryptographic Toolkit" and/or "JCE policy files for unlimited strength encryption" are not installed (or the server hasn't be restarted afterwards). The note will most likely help

I tried MappedRepository also that is also not working can sombody please help. I am getting null at the target application end for this extra field rest of the two I am able to recieve.
Regards
Sid

Hi Sid,
your template does not work because Repository is no standard parameter. You have to use a custom provider for this parameter. Refer to chapter 6 (Making Parameter Dynamic) of document <a href="https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/bf8cc890-0201-0010-00b1-8d04e5f4378a">"How toUse the Application Integrator"</a>.
Basically, you have to write a portal service which provides the parameter at runtime. If I understood you right the parameter Repository has to be set by the user in the user mapping dialog. Thus you can access the value using the IUserMappingService See the SAP Library for an <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/69/3482ee0d70492fa63ffe519f5758f5/frameset.htm">Example</a>.

Issue with user mapping and SAP reference system

Hello Gurus,
I have this strange system behaviour when preparing my system for single sign-on using user mapping.
Case 1.
In the user management property category, I have the following defined.
Authentication Ticket Type - SAP Logon Ticket
Logon Method - UIDPW
User Mapping Fields -
User Mapping Type - admin, user
In the alias editor, I defined the default alias as SAP_PRD
Result= when I go to identity management to assign the reference system (the default alias - SAP_PRD)...I do not see the system alias there.
Case 2:
In the user management property category, I have the following defined
Authentication Ticket Type - SAP Logon Ticket
Logon Method - SAPLOGONTICKET
User Mapping Fields -
User Mapping Type - admin, user
In the alias editor, I defined the default alias as SAP_DEV
Result, when I go to the identity management to assign the refernce system (the default alias - SAP_DEV), I see it there.
What might be my issue? Does it mean I can't assign SAP reference if I am using UIDPW as logon method?
Please help me.

Hi Mahesh,
Thanks for the feedback. I am relatively new to EP...so please I won't mind if you can guide me on how to go about this.
This is what I did...
I chose System Administration > Permissions
In the PCD, I located my system with the alias, SAP_PRD
It opened up the permission assignment area.
Now I have these permissions set
Administrator - Full Control
Administrators - Full control
com.sap.caf.eu.gp.roles.superuser - Full control
Everyone (built in group) - Full control
Everyone (Everyone role)- Full control
super_admin_role - Owner
For all the above End User box is checked.
I can't find anyone end user group .
Once I pick UIDPW, the alias disapperars from the reference system list.
Please help.
