UCES self registration- can userIDs of user own choice possible without CSR involvement?

[Former Member]

I am starting the new configuration for UCES and data source that i want to use is UME due to licencing cost.

So in the self registration - We have to give the users to chose his/her own user ID in the self registration part. is there any issue in implementaing this in UME data source? Secondly our client want that this activity should happen with any CSR person involvement in this process.

So User id as per the user choice should create in the UME and a mail should go to the user with his password at the same time and all the required role should be assigned to user like reference user etc. and BP/CA/Contract should linked with that ID in FICA system without any person involvement in this process.

Hello Singh,

i personally wrote my own UME interface & registration as UCES is using the Portal environment and the integrated registration process is only working for the ABAP scenarios.

But creating within the UME user records is not a big challange, just replace the newUser logic within the LoginAction to call the UME interface rather then doing a backend call.

But avoiding the licence costs this way is not smart, SAP simply does look into your UME instead of the ABAP system. It might be smarter to contact your Account Manager and discuss a realignment of the licence.

Hi Andreas,

Thanks for your reply.

1. I have gone through the self user registration page that you have designed for LondonHydro and Bluewater. In both of these example and as per my previous experiences we have never give the user option to chose his/her own user ID. Now i want to give user this option. is this possible?

2. what do you means by realignment of the licence? As we know that UME licencing cost is cheaper compareative to ABAP users.

3. But say 5 lakh user is using the online bill payment and bill management  in UCES then we have to purchase the 5 lakh billing  licencing in ISU systems. So going to UME data source for this scenarios is no licencing cost saving, please correct me here?

Hello Singh,

regarding the licence cost please talk to your SAP, before starting to change anything.

If you have reviewed Bluewater Power, then you should see, that you can actually choose your own Username. However, i would not recommend it  this way - it's makes it hard to avoid, that customers do not create endless new logons for the same account.

Thank very much Andreas.

I will take it up the licencing issue with my account manager.

Please help me in the first question that i asked -self registration should happen without any CSR person involvement , i believe that is very much possible and RFC will take care of the USER id creation and assigning the BP/CA to that id. Please confirm? As i want to user the UME-Java -Portal server for user management.

I do not want the UCES inside the EP. UCES is opening in separate window but installed in the same box as EP and we want to use UME-Java for user management. is this the correct approach?

Hi,

simply switch off the ISR functionality in the XCM, then no internet Service Request will be created. But not sure if this is valid for registration as I told you, that I used my own fully customized solution that can handle all scenarios as I need it without any limiation.

Please do not forget to mark this thread as answered!

Cheers,
