Providing system measurement data

User account license information can be mapped in One Identity Manager. An employee can have several user accounts which belong to different clients and systems. The employee's most significant user account is required for system measurement. This user account is determined as a chargeable user account by system measurement. One Identity Manager calculates user account ratings from the licenses assigned.

The employee's most significant user account is automatically determined from all user accounts not managed though CUAClosed. CUA user accounts are mapped in the license information in One Identity Manager and can be edited. The most significant user account is not, however, determined automatically.

System measurement data is supplied in One Identity Manager. The actual measurement takes place in the target system.

To make system measurement data available

  1. In the Designer, set the TargetSystem | SAPR3 | Accounts | CalculateLicence configuration parameter.

  2. In SAP, set the Enable system measurement option.
  3. Set Has user administration in the client.
  4. Enter the license data
    1. Enter the license for roles and profiles. One Identity Manager finds the user account's licenses from the licenses of all roles and profiles in which the user account is a member.

      - OR -

    2. Enter the active license directly in the user account.

    One Identity Manager calculates the most significant user account license from the licenses entered.

  5. Publish the measurement data.

    The calculated licenses are transferred to the active licenses. Active licenses are published in the target system. System measurement can be carried out there.

Finding licenses using SAP roles and SAP profiles

The most significant license can be determined from role and profile licenses that are not managed through CUAClosed. You must make the initial assignment of licenses manually after synchronizing roles and profiles. One Identity Manager determines the user account's highest rated license through user account memberships in roles and profiles. The employee's most significant user account is found across clients and system. The most significant license is added to the user account as the active license and published in the target system.

To assign roles and profiles

  1. Select the SAP R/3 | Roles category.

    – OR –

    Select the SAP R/3 | Profiles category.

  2. Select the role or profile in the result list.
  3. Assign a license in the License field.
  4. Save the changes.
