Automatic user id creation

Former Member — Tue, 07 Oct 2008 03:50:43 GMT

Hi Gurus,

we have active directory for identity management... we want to automatically create user id in SAP once a user is created in active directory. Is there any way of achieving it automatically

Hi Praveen,

Pls follow the below link for complete information on Mapping and Synchronization of LDAP Active directory User fields to SAP systems.

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_sm32/helpdata/en/95/49cb3a663bfc70e10000000a114084/content.htm

At a High level, you can follow these steps:

1. For defining the logical LDAP Server settings use LDAP transaction

2. For mapping of the fields use LDAPMAP transaction

3. For synchronization you need to schedule the program RSLDAPSYNC_USER on a daily basis as a back ground job.

Hope this helps,

Kind Regards,

Kiran Kandepalli.

Hi Kiran,

Synchronization of user data is ok.. but the question was of creating the user master. for e.g if user XYZ is created in active directory can we automatically create user in SAP also???

Hi Praveen,

I was explaining you the same thing. Once you create the user XYZ in Active Directory, then the User Details will be replicated into the SAP System through the Synchronization program which if scheduled every day will be okay.

If you go through the documentation from the above link from help.sap.com, it will guide you on how to sync the user details back to the SAP System. The only thing you need to map all the required fields of User from USR02 table to the fields in Active Directory via LDAPMAP transaction.

Hope this helps,
