Using password policies

The SAP R/3 password policy is predefined for SAP R/3. You can apply this password policy to SAP user accounts (SAPUser.Password) of an SAP client.

If the clients’ password requirements differ, it is recommended that you set up your own password policies for each client.

Furthermore, you can apply password policies based on the account definition of the user accounts or based on the manage level of the user accounts.

The password policy that is to be used for a user account is determined in the following sequence:

  1. Password policy of the account definition of the user account.

  2. Password policy of the manage level of the user account.

  3. Password policy for the client of the user account.

  4. The One Identity Manager password policy (default policy).

IMPORTANT: If you do not use password policies that are specific to the target system, the One Identity Manager password policy default policy applies. In this case, ensure that the default policy does not violate the target systems requirements.

  1. In the Manager, select the SAP R/3 | Basic configuration data | Password policies category.

  2. Select the password policy in the result list.
  3. Select the Assign objects task.
  4. Click Add in the Assignments section and enter the following data.
