                      The field CATALOG_NAME is the identification codename

                      Format

                      • If this field is not set, the SAP CC user has access to objects from every pricing catalog configured in the SAP CC system.
                      • If this field is set with the name of a catalog, the user only has access to the objects contained in this catalog.

                      Type NVARCHAR(64), NULL

                      Format

                      The NULL value can be used to force the expiration of the password. At the creation of a new SAP CC user, the field is set with the NULL value, so that the SAP user must change the password at the first logon.

                      The field FAILED_LOGIN_COUNT is the number of times the user entered a wrong password when trying to log in. If the advanced password management is enabled and if the value of FAILED_LOGIN_COUNT is greater than the maximum number of allowed errors (defined by the parameter PASSWORD_MANAGEMENT_FAIL_LIMIT), the user account is locked. The user cannot do anything until it is unlocked by an administrator.

                      Format

                      The initial value of this field is 0, and it is reset every time the password of the SAP user is modified.

                      Type DECIMAL(3), NOT NULL

                      LOCKED

                      IS_HUMAN

                      Definition The information if the SAP CC user is an individual user (human user), or a service user (non-human user)
                      Description

                      The field IS_HUMAN specifies if the SAP CC user is:

                      • or a service user (non-human user): the SAP user is another system or application interfaced with SAP Convergent Charging

                      Service users have fewer constraints relative to their passwords: they cannot be locked due to authentication failures, and their password never expire.

                      See the SAP CC Security Guide for more information.

                      Type DECIMAL(1), NOT NULL
