creation of user using su10

[Former Member]

Hello gurus,

we can create a new user ID using su10 apart from su01. What is the difference that we can potentially face when we create using su10. Is there any disadvantage by creating this.

Thanks

SU01 is used for Individual user creation and user specific address data maitained.

SU10 is for mass create/chage users, IF all users are idetical or you want change very idetical for all users than use SU10. However user specific details such as First name, Last name, Functions, Emails and so forth is not possible to maintain for individual user in SU10. More over if License type for each user is different in each user than you need to maintain individually.

All parameter and defualt data should be identical if SU10 used other wise you need to maintain separatly for each one in SU01, if not maitained by user throough SU3.

You can configure the LDAP from AD to SAP for solving some the points above.

....and role assignments if they are different for each users.

Basically there are no advantage/disadvantage of using SU10 instead of SU01, it depends on the need. What is your requirement for mass user creation, is it more preferable to use a CATT script / Mercury script, so it all depends on the situation.
