I would like to change my username on answers.sap.com.

I would expect that option to existin "My Account > Account & Settings / Personal Info > Edit".

However, the box with the username is not editable. Attached is a screenshot of the dialog.

Thank you for your help.

Hi patricetao It's not possible to change only the user name. The change will occur for your account and you'll lose everything associated with that account. The change might also cause system issues that result in unwanted side effects for your account which the IT team will be unable to fix.

This is why we recommend that people create a new account with the username they want and link to the old account. You can learn more in step 8 of our profile tutorial: https://developers.sap.com/tutorials/community-profile.html.

However, as you are an SAP employee, this might not be the best solution for you. Please reach out to sapcommunity@sap.com if you still want to change the user name.

Regards, Svea

This advice is inaccurate. Svea's directions are correct.
