Sync LDAP users with ECC - Mapping required field

Former Member — Wed, 18 Jun 2008 09:27:02 GMT

Hello,

I want to synchronize SAP ECC users with LDAP users.

At this moment I succeed to synchronize all users existing from the LDAP to the ECC.

But I want to filter users which need to be created by a specific attribute added in the LDAP.

I changed the LDAP mapping to add the "required" check on the corresponding to the specific attribute field. But when I use the RSLDAPSYNC_USER program, this required attribute is not considered.

What can I do to synchronize user which have the specific attribute filled. And not all users ?

Thanks for regards.

You can set negative filter:

Hello,

Thanks for your help.

But this link talks about the UME configuration in SAP Portal.

My problem is to filter users for the ECC (ABAP) synchronization.

Thanks Deepak Sharma .

I am on an ECC 6.0. So this correction seems to be already applied.

Thanks Siddhesh Ghag.

This note is very helpful and solved my problem.

I created a new mapping entry between the SAP User in ECC and the specific attibute created in the LDAP.

So if user has this specific attribute filled with is SAP username, this user is synchronized and created into the ECC.

In detailled:

- in the LDAP we have created a specific attribute name "SAP FIELD" (technical name is extensionAttribute10)

- in the LDAPMAP transaction in the ECC I modified the following entry:

" USERNAME | BAPIBNAME | sAMAccountName | X | X | X | X | | X | |"

By the following new:

" USERNAME | BAPIBNAME | extensionAttribute10 | X | X | X | X | | X | |"

So when I synchronize the LDAP, the LDAP specific extension is required (because linked to the SAP username). And if user doesn't has this specific attribute filled, it's not synchronized.

Hi,

I see thats's very old topisc.

But can you remember how you synchronized the LDAP to SAP? I want to know what you had in sAMAccountName and in extensionAttribute10?

Did the combination of this 2 parameters were combined into the USERNAME | BAPIBNAME?

I want to replicate sAMAccountName if the extensionAttribute6 is set to 1.
