Finding Users Who Are Locked Due to Failed Logon Attempts

Procedure

Start the report in the User Information System (transaction SUIM) by choosing Start of the navigation pathUsers Next navigation step With Unsuccessful LogonsEnd of the navigation path.

This evaluation starts immediately without additional selection criteria.

Results

If the report found matching users, the report displays the users in a list.

Next Steps

Determine what steps to take next:

  • Think about if the locked users indicate an attack on your system. Is someone trying to brute force their way into the account of a dialog user? Have the credentials of a technical user changed and the system or application that calls that user needs updating?

  • For a small number of users, you can double-click on the users individually and unlock them.

  • For a large number of users, use Mass Maintenance (transaction SU10) to search for an unlock them.
