Unlock users

Do you have advice for this possibly occurring issue:

How can users be unlocked when they are all locked in a SAP application for example in R/3 ?

Is a standard SAP System account available to unlock users?

Is a standard workinstruction available for this case?

Thanks in advance.

Vincent,

The SAP* user will be your escape route. There are several threads, notes and other webpages about how to re-activate it with its default password and without a lock. That may require a system bounce but when everyone is locked a bounce won't disturb too many processes

Jurjen

P.S.

I hope the "possibly occuring issue" isn't part of a job interview

Best start with SAP notes 2383, 8852 and 68048 to get some understanding about SAP*.

Here's a thread about the same issue:
