SUSR_USER_CHANGE_PASSWORD_RFC

Former Member — Mon, 06 Apr 2009 15:21:32 GMT

Can anybody help me regarding the RFC SUSR_USER_CHANGE_PASSWORD_RFC.

If the old password and the newpassword i'm entering are in upper case it works fine.

If the old password is in lowercase getting an error msg saying that password mismatch.

Any clues on this.

Also when iam trying to use this on the portal side it doesnt give me the error messages i'm getting in SAP.

Please tell me how to handle this upper and lower case and also error handling.

Regards

Hi,

Are u using RSYST-BCODE to pass password in the function module ?

Is your servers password case sensitive ?

Yes i guess so.Bcos if i give in uppercase the RFC fines.I think somethingto do with the RFC.

Even if i give lower case RFC is converting into uppercase.

Hi Vijaya,

I think SAP releases up to version 6.40 always stored the user passwords in upper case. So initially the RFC library had logic to convert passwords from lower case to upper case, but this was stopped at some point (e.g. check notes 846706 and 792850).

With SAP NW 7.00 passwords can actually be stored case sensitive, see for example note 1023437. I wonder if the difference that you're seeing is simply based on the different releases.

Hope this helps.
