User mapping types

Hello,
any body tell me What are the available user mapping types ?
Thanks,
Kiran

There are no types in user mapping.
User mapping is used when there are different user id's across system landscape and they cannot be managed centrally.
Using user mapping we can map portal user id's with other systems like R3, non sap systems etc..
so that user no need to aiuthenticate again. It is one method of achieving SSO in portal.

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.

Need Help in User Mapping

Hi,
I have created some R/3 transactions and assigned to end user.
When i click on some Transaction name, it prompts me for username and password.
Can i personalise this by taking the username and password automatically.
Regards,
Raju

Hi,
From User administration -> Identity Management, select the user, group, or role that you want to map to a user (who is accessing the transaction iView). Click on Modify button below to edit details. Go to tab User Mapping for System Access . Select the R/3 system from dropdown and enter R/3 username and password to which this portal user or group is to be mapped to.
Open system properties and go to User management. Give the following values for the properties.
User Mapping Type :admin, user
Logon Method : UIDPW
For more details, check these

User Mapping problem in EP 6.0 SP12

Hi,
I have installed EP6 SP12 from the CBS site and created a System which is configured to an SAP R/3 system. I gave the Connector parameters, User management as "UIDPW" with "User mapping type" as "admin, user", gave a System Alias and mapped it to my R/3 user. When I test the connection, I get the following error:
Retrieval of default alias successful
Connection failed. Make sure user mapping is set correctly and all connection properties are correct.
I read other posts in SDN and verified that the following properties are set to TRUE:
) Portal: System Administration > System Configuration > UM Configuration > Direct Editing
2) Visual Admin: Server > Services > Configuration Adapter: cluster_data/server/cfg/services/Propertysheet com.sap.security.core.ume.service
But this does not help.
Could someone help? I am facing this problem in SP12 version alone. It works fine on versions less than or equal to SP9.
Regards,
Ann Catherine Jose.

Subrato ,
To my knowledge for usermapping , you dont require User ID in portal as same as in R3 .This applies in case of SSO with logon tickets .But yes , it should in the same domain ( for this you could use domain relaxation )
Ann ,
Could you change ume.usermapping.unsecure=TRUE ( from False )in
System Admin -> System Configuration ->UM COnfiguration -DIrect Editong
Al though this is not a recoomended option , can be used for testing but not in productive use . It is advisable to import security policy files to your Visual admin
Hope this helps

Different ways to do User Mapping

Hello all,
Could some one tell me about the ways in which we could map the user id to SAP r3 id. We already have a reference system which will do the user mapping.
Another way is to have the LDAP save the Mapped user id along with the authentication data.
Wanted to know if there are any other ways to do such a user mapping.
Thanks ,
Meghna

Hi,
User mapping is used for Single Sign-On (SSO) to back-end systems. User mapping maps a portal user ID to the user ID of the back-end system.
Systems are represented by their default alias in various interfaces, such as the User Mapping dialog that displays during personalization. To make a system available for user mapping, you must:
● In the System Aliases Editor, define a default alias for each system that you create. For information about creating system aliases and default system aliases,
● In the System Property Editor, set the User Mapping Type property to either:
--> User: Only the end user can set user mapping
--> Admin: Only the administrator can set user mapping
-->Admin/User: Both the end user and the administrator can set user mapping
User mapping supports the following authentication methods:
● SSO using user ID and password
This method always requires user mapping. The portal ID is mapped to the user ID and password of the back-end system.
● SSO using logon tickets to ABAP-based systems
This method only requires user mapping if users have different user IDs in the SAP NetWeaver Portal and ABAP-based systems. Passwords are not mapped.
To access more than one ABAP back-end system, you can define a reference system. As long as all the ABAP back-end systems use the same user ID, the user can access all the systems by mapping their portal user ID to the user ID on the reference system.

Http System and User Mapping

hi,
I have created a Http system and mapped the user ID and password for the login page of that System. Now when i created a URL Iview for a particular application using the System defined above and after passing the username and password parameters as mapped user and mapped Password, i am not able to login into the web application. Its displaying the login page again asking for username and password.
What should be done so that i could login to the application directly after logging into the Portal.And also plz tell me the required parameters that needs to be filled in while creating the system.Also the consolidated list of steps to be followed.
Thanks in advance,
Jules

Hi Jules,
What you are talking about is also called SSO. Well you have to also do a minor change in the setting. Go to HTTP System which you have created and in the Property Category dropdoen select User Management. Here you will find the user mapping type. Chnage the option of this user mapping according to your need. There will be three option for that:
1) User - If only user need to be mapped.
2) Admin - If only admin need to be mapped.
3) User,Admin - If both User and admin need to be mapped. (prefered if SSO has to provided for application to all users including Admin).
Also I beleive that you have create dthe System alias for the HTTP system you have created, because you will need that for user mapping in the further steps.
I hope this solves your problem.
Regards
Pravesh

Problem with user mapping

Hello,
We got a problem with user-mapping to a SAP system.
We create a SAp system, and an alias to this system.
We add a user mapping for the administrator (user, not group). Check for connector is OK.
Now, we make the same user-mapping for a group.
if the user also belongs to the group "administrator" this mapping works, otherwise this fail with a message "com.sapportals.portal.ivs.cg.SystemNotFoundException: Got null system object for alias R3HR".
After checking, there is no user-mapping for the "administrator" group, nor for the roles that belong to that group, nor for the user.
So, it seem that the alias is only visible for an admin.
does any one got an idea ? we are on SP14, Linux.
regards
Guillaume PATRY

HI Guillaume,
The user mapping is available for both Admin as well as end users.
Open your system from System Administration>System Configuration>System Landscape.
In the property editor,in dropdown for property category,
select the logon method as UID?password and User Mapping type to admin/user.
Then you can create a Group,map the system alias for this group and add users to this group.
Also,in the property editor for the system,from dropdown for display,select permissions , and add the group to asssigned permissions as READ ONLY and select the checkbox for ENDUSER.
Hope,this resolves your problem.

Siddhartha

Hi,
First you must import sap crptographic toolkit from help.sap.com, following link: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/04/d246215f1d4f588d1d9c49391acb01/frameset.htm
Here be careful to follow all the steps, have a look at the link and the subt topic deploying crptographic toolkit.
Onec you have done that, restart the portal and related services.
Now it is possible that you might face other new probles or exceptions.
In that case you might need to update your jce files etc.
Please refer to the sap note: 796540
in that case

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

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

]. 
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.

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.

Using columns of user defined types

Can anyone help me display data from a column within a table which is of a user defined type - a object with 4 elements .
Discoverer wont currently display the data - it says a MAP or ORDER method is required.
The type is declared as :
create or replace type m_p as object
( m_p_id number(9),
m_p_start number,
m_p_end number,
m_p_length number )
and the table is declared as
create table t_m_p (
N_ID NUMBER,
N_PL M_P,
N_ATT VARCHAR2(1)
What do I need to do to allow Discoverer 3.1 to display the data held in the N_PL column?
Also : can anyone tell me if it is possible to display data in Discoverer from a thre dimensional varray? - or would I have to create a view on it?

Discoverer does not currently allow queries to contain the extended Oracle 8 object types. The way to resolve this is to write views that present a relational view of the object structure and then build a business area based on these views

Also : can anyone tell me if it is possible to display data in Discoverer from a thre dimensional varray? - or would I have to create a view on it?<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

Access result set in user define type of table

here is the situation. I have a stored procedure that dequeues messages of a AQ and passes them as an OUT parameter in a collection of a user defined type. The same type used to define the queues. The java code executes properly but seems like we don't/can't access the result set. We don't receive any erros but don't know how to access the results. I've included relevant parts of the problem.
I know this should be doable but........Can someone please tell us what we are doing wrong....thanks in advance.

Hi,
Sorry but I'd refer you to the following sections (and code samples/snippets) in my book:
Mapping User-Defined Object Types (AD) to oracle.sql.STRUCT in section 3.3, shows how to pass user defined types as IN, OUT,IN/OUT
JMS over Streams/AQ in the Database: shows how to consume AQ
message paylod in section 4.2.4
CorporateOnine, in section 17.2, show how to exchanges user defined type objects b/w AQ and JMS
All these will hopefully help you achieve what you are trying to do.

Users mapping between EP and ABAP system

Hello
I'd like to ask for some guidance in my quest
Current situation looks like this:
I've configured UME in AS Java to work with LDAP as read only data source. Then I've configured SPNego to run SSO - It works, users from MS AD can log into portal.
Now I have application in WD which authorizes via EP/AD - works fine.
And next step is users mapping between AD and ABAP backend (serving some BAPI's for WD app)
I've found a bunch of help pages starting from
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwce711/helpdata/en/0b/d82c4142aef623e10000000a155106/frameset.htm
But somehow it's quite complicated to achieve this mapping. I've tried to set RFC destinations logon type to user mapping but without succes.
Can anyone point me to some more clear example or give path to configure this scenario? Is there a way of configuring this with NWA or some XML file editing is required?
Any help will be appreciated.
BTW: whole environment is in version 7.11
Best regards
Maciej

There is no equivalent to SPNEGO on the ABAP side.
If your goal is to propagate the user, then possible options are:
-> Wait for SAML 2.0 or invest now in a SAML 1.0 provider.
-> Use the same kerberos ticket for the EP as what your ABAP system will accept: route = SNC and 3rd party libraries.
-> Issue SAP logon tickets for the ABAP system from the EP, and use these in your WDA.
Another option is to expose the service with saved logon data in the ICF. If the service is just a wrapper for the BAPI, then you can also consider using trusted RFC between the service and the backend, but this might not be acceptable for your service.
I have only done experimental stuff with this and some of the above is not released yet. Also consider the consequences, even if it "does work"...
Cheers,
Julius
