Using of P_ABAP for Batch User IDs

Hi Experts,
I'm am contemplating to assign P_ABAP to bypass all authorization checks for reports for our system batch ids that will be used for executing background jobs. My consideration is that if P_ABAP is utilized, unnecessary authorization checks during execution of the background jobs by these batch ids will be skipped and will improve our performance of the background jobs.
I want to seek advise if this is a recommended practice and if any experts have implemented similar set-up. I would also like to know if there is any risk that could result from such an implementation.
Regards,
Justin

In my opinion, there's some risk with doing this. A person with 'S_BTCH_NAM' authorization could easily run these reports in background job submitted as one of these batch ids which could really cause issues.

  • Policy for using a licence for 2 users and technical restrictions

    Dear All,
    With the 2007 version, my customer was accustomed to using a licence for 2 users.
    Before the migration in 8.81 PL08, I warned him that that would not be possible any more with this new version because that had been said to us by SAP.
    All the users work remotely via TSE and the double login still seems to function properly
    I did not find SAP documentation relating to this question. Does somebody know it?
    Which is the rule for using a ID with two users on two different workstations? Which are the technical restrictions?
    Thanks in advance

    Hi,
    Welcome you post on the forum.
    The rule is: a same user code is allowed to open two sessions concurrently. This is not changed. This function is for the need a user may need both session to complete certain tasks.
    RSP has a new function to detect such case if the same B1 user are from two work stations. That is a sign to indicate this feature may be abused.
    Thanks,
    Gordon

  • Random application behaviour for different user IDs

    Hi all,
    We are testing the standard bank application in ESS. We have made some minor field name and help link modifications in the application through NWDS.
    However, the application behaviour is unpredictable. For example, when I log in as user A, i am able to maintain my 'new main bank' and 'new other bank'. Whereas if i log in as user B, i am not able to maintain my 'new other bank' record. i.e. though the 'new other bank' button is active, the system does not take me to the 'edit' page! Similarly, with a few IDs we are able to maintain 3 other bank records, and the records are getting saved correctly in the backend as well. However, for some other IDs
    although we can create the other bank record, the records are not getting displayed in the overview page as well as the backend.
    We are unable to point out the reason for this random behaviour.
    Any pointers to the same will be appreciated.
    TIA.

  • What's the best phone app to use on iPad for uk users to make calls with

    I know there's a few apps out there to use and make phone calls with, but which is the best one for uk users/callers.
    I would prefer not to use Skype but if that's the best on the market, that's what I will use.
    As you can probably guess I'm new to the iPad, so all the help I get is appreciated loads.

    Cheers for that, looks like I will have to use Skype then. Unless someone else comes up with an answer.

  • Is there something faster to use then rwrun for batch processing?

    Hey,
    I am using rwrun to process several reports (200+) in a batch file by using something like this:
    start rwrun Report.rdf destype=file desformat=pdf desname="School1.pdf" p_school="1" userid=user/password
    start rwrun Report.rdf destype=file desformat=pdf desname="School2.pdf" p_school="2" userid=user/password
    start rwrun Report.rdf destype=file desformat=pdf desname="School3.pdf" p_school="3" userid=user/password
    but it is taking a long time to run. My guess is that by using this method to process the reports it as to connect to the database each time, so that may account for some of the slowness.
    Anyone know of a better/faster way to do what I am doing above?
    Thanks

    Hello,
    It is more efficient to use a reports server :
    Example:
    rwserver server=repserver batch=yes
    rwclient server=repserver Report.rdf destype=file desformat=pdf desname="School1.pdf" p_school="1" userid=user/password
    rwclient server=repserver Report.rdf destype=file desformat=pdf desname="School2.pdf" p_school="2" userid=user/password
    rwclient server=repserver Report.rdf destype=file desformat=pdf desname="School3.pdf" p_school="3" userid=user/password
    It is just necessary to add a small pause between the call to rwserver and the first call to rwclient in order to let the reports server starts and be ready .

  • Use one profile for all user profiles in Server 2012 R2

    Hi
    I am setting up an Windows Server 2012 R2 Template on VMware. 
    I will do som changes with the local admin user, and want all user that will log in to servers made from this Template, get the user profile I have set up for the admin account.
    How to I do that?
    Regards
    StigKSand

    the way I used to do this was to create a new profile the way I wanted with any shortcuts applications etc installed. then I would create another user account on the PC and make it an admin.
    reboot the pc to ensure it hasn't got the pre-configured profile loaded and login with your newly created admin account.
    then right click This PC in windows explorer and select properties, then select advanced system settings, and select user profiles on the advanced tab. You can then select the profile you made all the configuration to, and click copy and then select default
    profile.
    this should then mean any new users who login get this default profile on this server.
    hopefully that is what you were referring to.

  • Using different templates for different user access types.

    Hi all,
    I have an issue where we have a Page Group with lots of pages/sub-pages.
    There are three different User Groups, Internal, Customer and Supplier.
    I need to display the same content but with different templates (look and feel), one for the Internal, one for the customer and one for the supplier.
    Can this be done using Oracle Portal 10.1.14? If so, how?
    Many thanks.

    Hi,
    Yes you can do what you want to do in 10.1.4.
    You can call a procedure in your HTML Layout Template which will write some CSS. This procedure will be executed with the USERID parameter.
    Your procedure will check if the current user is a customer or a supplier and your CSS will reflect the differences (with different colors or whatever...)
    Good luck,
    Max.

  • How can I avoid using rollback segment for batch updates.

    I am currently trying to avoid associating a large amount of space for rollback segment as this gets filled up only during the nightly batch updates. All that space will never be used during the day. Hence want to know if there is any way of avoiding the use of rollback segment at the session level.
    Rajesh

    No, but what you can do is create a large rollback segment to use with your batch job, at the start of your batch job bring the segment online, then use set transaction to use that rollback segment, when the batch job is finished and committed, you can then bring the rollback segment offline.
    If you are really pressed for space, as an alternate plan, you could actually create the large segment before the batch job and drop it after.

  • AppV 5 HF5 packages using /appve fail for regular users on Win 7

    Hello,
    I've been struggling with some App-V packages that fail to start on Win 7 machines provided trough Xendesktop.
    All packages in question make use of locally installed Internet Explorer 9 and /appve switch  :
    "C:\Program Files (x86)\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe"  /appvve:D89030F5-436B-4A82-A104-A5E5E8089824_6C521CD6-5116-4587-B9E8-E386075F7A79
    All other streamed apps can be started fine (the ones not using /appve switch)
    If I run this package as  a regular user I always get an error that "Internet Explorer has stopped working" and a error message in the application log:
    Faulting application name: iexplore.exe, version: 9.0.8112.16599, time stamp: 0x5473964b

    If I start the application on the same machine using a domain account user the app starts fine.
    Internet explorer works fine for the regular users.
    On a machine running  Windows server 2008 R2 the same user can start the packages without any problems.
    I've been looking at the permissions needed but can't seem to get to the end of this...
    Has anyone seen the issue or has any clue what I can do?
    Thanks!

    It looks like some others have had issues with the /appvve switch in Citrix environments too:

  • Can we use AD authentication for SPoint users to access Portal behind OID?

    Hi,
    We have Oracle Portal with OID-AD sychronization set up, and are currently implementing SharePoint in our organization.
    We would like to provide links to a few pages on our Portal to some of the SharePoint users.
    The SharePoint users are authenticated by the Active Directory SSO and the Portal users are authenticated by our OID SSO setup.
    What we want to do is to let some SharePoint users access our Portal using their AD login. The SharePoint users should not have to login again to get to our Portal pages.
    Is there a way to let the AD authentication to pass through the OID setup so that SharePoint users can directly access our Portal?
    We don't have any external authentication plug-ins set up for our Portal.
    Currently we are on Portal version 9.0.4.1 but may be upgrading to version 10.1.4.2 in the near future.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • Using Qualtrics Interceptor for End-User Feedback

    Hi,
    I've been managing my company's online help system for a few years now (currently using RoboHelp 9 WebHelp) and I've been getting some questions about deploying more user feedback options. One tool that we've been using on some of our marketing sites is Qualtrics Interceptor.
    I was wondering if anyone has used this or whether it can work in the RoboHelp environment? The javascript code is placed in the header of the landing page, and would create a pop-up with a link to Qualtrics site when the user closes the Help system. I'm pretty sure that this won't work, but I can't test it on our staging server at this time.
    Thanks
