Central user administration in One Identity Manager

If user accounts are managed through the central user administration (CUAClosed) in SAP R/3, access to the child client can be guaranteed for or withdrawn from user accounts in One Identity Manager. To do this, clients are marked as central system or child system in One Identity Manager. User accounts are managed in the central system. You specify the client in which each user account obtains its access permissions. (SAPUserMandant table). Only SAP roles or profiles from this client can be assigned to a user account. A user account only has access authorizations in the central system if the central system is also explicitly assigned in the SAPUserMandant table.

NOTE: In One Identity Manager, only SAP groups from the central system are mapped. SAP groups are not administered through the central user administration.

To use automatic identity assignment for central user administration (CUA) user accounts, assign an account definition to the CUA central system using the SAPUser user table.

The access authorizations for central and child systems are read into theOne Identity Manager database through synchronization. In One Identity Manager, access authorization can be granted by IT Shop requests and indirect assignment, as well as by indirect assignment.

To grant an identity access to a client by indirect assignment or request

  1. Create an account definition to generate user accounts in the central system.

    In the User account table field, select the SAPUser table. For more information, see Main data for an account definition.

    This account definition is required to generate a user account in the central system if the identity does not yet have a user account.

  2. Create an account definition for the client for which you want to grant access. The following special features apply:

    Table 39: Main data of an account definition for accessing clients
    Property Description
    User account table Select SAPUserMandant from the menu.

    Target system

    Client for which you want to grant access.

    Required account definition

    From the menu, select the account definition to generate user accounts in the central system. A user account is then created in the central system if the identity does not yet have a user account.

    Manage level (initial)

    Select Unmanaged from the menu.

    Service item

    Service item through which you can request the account definition resource in the IT Shop. Assign an existing service item or add a new one.

    IT Shop

    Enable the option if access to the child system can be requested in the Web Portal.

    Only for use in IT Shop

    Enable the option if access to the child system can only be requested in the Web Portal. Indirect assignment by business roles or organizations is not possible. However, access by a user account to the child system can still be granted directly.

    An account definition is required for each child system and for the central system in which you want to grant access.

  3. Assign the account definition for the client to a hierarchical role or IT Shop shelf.

  4. Add the identity as a member to the hierarchical role or as a customer to the IT Shop.

To grant a user account direct access to a client

You can now assign the SAP roles and profiles from this client to the user account.

Entering main data of SAP user accounts

A user account can be linked to an identity in One Identity Manager. You can also manage user accounts separately from identities.

NOTE: It is recommended to use account definitions to set up user accounts for company identities. In this case, some of the main data described in the following is mapped through templates from identity main data.

NOTE: If identities are to obtain their user accounts through account definitions, the identities must own a central user account and obtain their IT operating data through assignment to a primary department, a primary location, or a primary cost center.If identities are to obtain their user accounts through account definitions, the identities must own a central SAP user account and obtain their IT operating data through assignment to a primary department, a primary location, or a primary cost center.

General main data of an SAP user account

NOTE: You can only add user account to client which are marked as central system if user accounts in the SAP system manged with central user administration.

Enter general data for a user account on the Address tab.

Table 40: SAP user account address data
Property Description
Identity

Identity that uses this user account.

  • An identity is already entered if the user account was generated by an account definition.

  • If you are using automatic identity assignment, an associated identity is found and added to the user account when you save the user account.

  • If you create the user account manually, you can select an identity in the menu.

    The menu displays activated and deactivated identities by default. If you do not want to see any deactivated identities, set the QER | Person| HideDeactivatedIdentities configuration parameter.

NOTE: If you assign a deactivated identity to a user account, it might be locked or deleted depending on the configuration.

You can create a new identity for a user account with an identity of type Organizational identity, Personalized administrator identity, Sponsored identity, Shared identity, or Service identity. To do this, click next to the input field and enter the required identity main data. Which login data is required depends on the selected identity type.

No link to an identity required

Specifies whether the user account is intentionally not assigned an identity. The option is automatically set if a user account is included in the exclusion list for automatic identity assignment or a corresponding attestation is carried out. You can set the option manually. Enable the option if the user account does not need to be linked with an identity (for example, if several identities use the user account).

If attestation approves these user accounts, these user accounts will not be submitted for attestation in the future. In the Web Portal, user accounts that are not linked to an identity can be filtered according to various criteria.

Not linked to an identity

Indicates why the No link to an identity required option is enabled for this user account. Possible values:

  • By administrator: The option was set manually by the administrator.

  • By attestation: The user account was attested.

  • By exclusion criterion: The user account is not associated with an identity due to an exclusion criterion. For example, the user account is included in the exclude list for automatic identity assignment (configuration parameter PersonExcludeList).

Account definition

Account definition through which the user account was created.

Use the account definition to automatically fill user account main data and to specify a manage level for the user account. One Identity Manager finds the IT operating data of the assigned identity and enters it in the corresponding fields in the user account.

NOTE: The account definition cannot be changed once the user account has been saved.

NOTE: Use the user account's Remove account definition task to reset the user account to Linked status. This removes the account definition from both the user account and the identity. The user account remains but is not managed by the account definition anymore. The task only removes account definitions that are directly assigned (XOrigin=1).

Manage level Manage level of the user account. Select a manage level from the menu. You can only specify the manage level can if you have also entered an account definition. All manage levels of the selected account definition are available in the menu.
Client
