Initial password for new SAP user accounts

Table 38: Configuration parameters for formatting initial passwords for user accounts
Configuration parameter Meaning

QER | Person | UseCentralPassword

This configuration parameter specifies whether the employee's central password is used in the user accounts. The employee’s central password is automatically mapped to the employee’s user account in all permitted target systems. This excludes privileged user accounts, which are not updated.

QER | Person | UseCentralPassword | PermanentStore

This configuration parameter controls the storage period for central passwords. If the configuration parameter is enabled, the central password is stored in the One Identity Manager database and is used for new users. If the configuration parameter is disabled, the central password is deleted from the One Identity Manager database following publishing to the existing user accounts. The central password is not available for new user accounts.

TargetSystem | SAPR3 | Accounts |
InitialRandomPassword

This configuration parameter specifies whether a random generated password is issued when a new user account is added. The password must contain at least those character sets that are defined in the password policy.

You can issue an initial password for a new SAP user account in the following ways:

  • Create user accounts manually and enter a password in their master data.

  • Assign a randomly generated initial password to enter when you create user accounts.

    • In the Designer, set the TargetSystem | SAPR3 | Accounts | InitialRandomPassword configuration parameter.

    • Apply target system specific password policies and define the character sets that the password must contain.

    • Specify which employee will receive the initial password by email.

  • Use the employee's central password. The employee’s central password is mapped to the user account password. For detailed information about an employee’s central password, see the One Identity Manager Identity Management Base Module Administration Guide.
