USR02 contains the current password and USRPWDHISTORY contains the past passwords. But they're in hashed format for security reasons.

hi,

The password may not be changed to any of a useru2019s last x passwords, if the user changes the password himself or herself.

Until SAP NetWeaver 6.40 (inclusive), the password history was fixed to the value 5.

After SAP NetWeaver 6.40, the administrator can set the size of the password history (up to 100 passwords selected by the user).

The administrator can reset a useru2019s password to any initial password, therefore also to one of the last x passwords for this user. This is necessary, since the administrator should not know the passwords of the users. The user is prompted to change the initial password at the first interactive logon.

You can change this with the profile parameter login/password_history_size.
