User Administration Concept
Lesson Duration: 60 minutes
Lesson Overview
This lesson will explore the administration of user master records.
Creating, copying, and maintaining master records of this type will be
described in more detail.
Lesson Objectives
After completing this lesson, you will be able to:
• Create users
As a demonstration, create a user, “TestAdmin”, in transaction SU01
and maintain the following settings: Last name, initial password, user
group, defaults, and the parameter XUS. Then lock and copy the user.
Demonstrate how the password changes in the copied master record. You
should know that the user types were changes with SAP Basis 4.6C. For
more information, see the F1 help for transaction SU01.
Hint: A dialog box may appear in transaction SU01 when you
leave the Roles tab page. For information about the terms listed, see
SAP Note 312682.
Business Example
The users of the SAP system require their own user with appropriate
authorizations to log on. The administrator sets up a user in the system
for each user.
Basics of User Administration
The concept of the user master record and the authorization concept are
explained in more detail below. Both of these are important to obtain a
better understanding of SAP systems.
