Creating the Central User Administration

When creating central user administration (CUA), the system creates partner profiles, creates or adjusts the corresponding ALE model, and performs a comparison of roles within the child systems.

Prerequisites

You have created the logical systems and RFC destinations.

If you have already created the CUA, and now want to reinclude the child systems in it, execute report RSDELCUA with the Reorganize CUA Tables option in the central system and in the relevant child systems. Reorganizing CUA tables, you delete all data that was in the previous CUA about the child systems, ensuring that you avoid inconsistencies when you reconnect the child systems.

Procedure

  1. Log on to the central system (in this example, ADM client 070).
  2. Start Select Model View for Central User Administration (transaction SCUA).
  3. Enter the name of your distribution model, such as CUA.
  4. Choose Create.
  5. Enter the names of the child systems, such as PRDCLNT324.
  6. Save your entries, either with a complete save or selectively.

Results

The Display Logs screen appears.

If you expand the nodes for the individual systems, you see the following messages for each system:

  • ALE Distribution Model saved
  • Central User Administration was activated
  • Text comparison started

If errors occurred, for example, when distributing the ALE model to the child system, the corresponding node is red in the system overview. Expand this node to display the error message, such as Error when saving the ALE distribution model in child system &.

To display the long text for the message, place the cursor on the message and choose the icon under LTxt in the lower half of the screen.
