Last_Name=Smith

[User]
UID=user2

The following example shows how you can change the user mapping data of an existing user, user2. When you import the data, choose the option Overwrite Existing Data in the import tool.

The user user2 is mapped to the user ID ext_user2 in the system BCE, where BCE is the system alias of the system defined in the portal system landscape.

[User]

$usermapping$:BCE:user=ext_user2
$usermapping$:BCE:mappedpassword=password
