 User Comparison After Temporary Interruption

Use

If the CUA connection is temporarily interrupted, you can use the User Comparison Between a Child System and the CUA application to compare user master records in the central CUA system with user master records changed locally, and correct any data inconsistencies.

Prerequisites

Features

The User Comparison Between a Child System and the CUA application provides the following views on tab pages:

  • Different Users

    In this view, the Overview area displays users that exist in both systems but for which data is inconsistent .

    Note Note

    "Inconsistent" refers only to user master data that can be maintained globally. Locally-maintained master data that is inconsistent is displayed but cannot be reconciled.

    End of the note.

    The system displays the user distribution status for each user in the Status: User field . If the system indicates that the distribution has not been fully completed, complete the relevant distribution (see ALE Status Monitoring ).

    Data inconsistencies between the systems are displayed using symbols. If you double-click on a symbol, the system displays detailed information in the second screen area. You have the following options to transfer the data:

    • To transfer a user completely, specify in the overview whether the data from the CUA system is to be copied to the local system ( Central option) or whether the data from the local system is to be copied to the CUA system ( Child option).

    • Alternatively, the detailed view allows you to specify individual values that are to be copied in either direction (both options are automatically selected in the overview). For some values, the direction of transfer has to be the same. In these cases, the system adjusts the selection automatically.

      To start transferring the data, select the user from the overview and choose Transfer Users.

  • Exclusive Users in Child System

    In this view, the system displays users that exist in the local system but not in the CUA system.

    • Choose Transfer Users to transfer a selected user to the CUA system.

    • Choose Delete User to delete a selected user from the local system .

  • Non-Existent Users in Child System

    In this view, the system displays users that exist in the CUA system but not in the local system.

    • Choose Transfer Users to transfer a selected user to the local system.

    • Choose Delete User to delete the assignment of a user to this local system from the CUA system .

  • Identical Users

    In this view, the system displays users that exist in both systems without any discrepancies.

Activities

You are in the CUA system.

  1. Choose User Comparison Between a Child System and the CUA application (transaction /ISDFPS/CUA_USER_CMP).

  2. Enter the local system whose user master data you want to reconcile with the data from the CUA system.

  3. Choose Execute.

  4. Choose the required users or attributes and start the transfer using the relevant functions.

The system generates the corresponding IDocs and transfers the data to the relevant systems.
