Chapter 7: Scheduled Quarterly TasksNotesProperly assigned parameters will make it more difficult to break into the system.Background jobs are batch jobs scheduled to run at specific times during the day.If you are running critical jobs, you need to know if the job failed because there may beother processes, activities, or tasks that are dependent on these jobs.The lock/unlock function is part of the logon check, which allows or prevents the user fromlogging onto the R/3 System. For terminated users, the user’s ID should be locked and theuser assigned to the user group “term.” Locking a userIf an employee leaves the company, is assigned to a different group, or is on leave, theirR/3 access should be removed. With the lock function, the user’s ID and security profileremain on the system but the user cannot log on. This function is ideal for temporarypersonnel or consultants where, unless the access is required, the user ID remainslocked. Unlocking a userIf users incorrectly log on more that the allowed number of times, they are automaticallylocked out of the system. (An incorrect logon is usually the result of a forgottenpassword.) The administrator must unlock the user ID and more than likely reset theuser’s password.System Administration Made Easy7–5
