Do we have an SAP Function Module/Method with which i can create multiple users at a time ?

Former Member — Mon, 06 Aug 2018 09:20:43 GMT

we have a FM 'BAPI_USER_CREATE1' but this allows us to create only one user at a time.

How about writing a wrapper function module around the bapi_user_create1?

That's what I did.

b.wallagh that is what i am doing now but this is causing performance because commit work will happen for each user, i want commit work to happen only once.

Well, how about this:

- loop over your users
--- call bapi_user_create1
- endloop

- commit

b.wallagh initially i was also thinking to do like what you are suggesting, but problem is we don't have any parameter to skip the commit work happening inside bapi_user_create1.

Why is this causing such a huge performance issue? Commit after every user seems justified to me. Each account is a separate transaction. And keeping data without committing has its own drawbacks.

You might want to offer more information about the architecture here.

I can't help but wonder why performance is important? It's not the type of thing you do every day.

Hmmm ... if i peak into the documentation of this module, this catches my eye:

'If you want to choose when the COMMIT WORK takes place, you must use the new identity API (class CL_IDENTITY_FACTORY) instead of the BAPIs for the user.'

Can you use these methods by any change?
