Procedure documentationCreating Users in SAP NetWeaver Locate this document in the navigation structure

 

User objects represent users of the system and can have roles granted to them in order to have privileges to perform actions.

Users are part of the Security section in the navigation bar. The following standard users are provided with SAP CPS:

  • Redwood System - a user that represents the system.

Users are imported automatically from the SAP User Management Engine (UME) as soon as they log on for the first time and kept in sync with UME at each login. This synchronization only occurs one way, from UME to SAP CPS. Users are created in UME and cannot be created in SAP CPS. They must have the following action assigned to at least one of their roles to get read-only access:

  • redwood.com/Scheduler.AccessScheduler

Administrator users additionally have the UME role scheduler-administrator or the following action assigned to one of their roles:

  • redwood.com/Scheduler.ManageScheduler

To view all the available users, choose   Security → Users   in the Navigation bar.

You can enable and disable login for a user; when you disable login for a user, the user will be notified at the next login attempt that the user has no access to the system.
