Hi Gurus
I am trying to create a Buy-Side User account, and nothing is happening when I hit create?
Not sure why. I created a Default Buy Side Profile, and a Default Sell Side Profile.
Now I need to create users. Do I have to have an LDAP integration to download or upload Internal Users?
Please advice.
Thanks

Hi JS
You have 2 options here
Incase you are doing a realtime implementation of ES, then you better spend more time and get the LDAP configuration settings, you can use Microsoft LDAP, its quite easy and your system administrators can help you do that.
Incase you want the welcome mail from the application, which happens to be the start of the process, you can currently choose to work with the Local directories.
Check your software districution CD, in the installation folder, you will get a file called "password.properties"
Please make an entry of the username into that file, you will get an encrypted password, you just need to save the file and the user will be created.
System will send you an invitation mail.
Please check the set-up guide / installation guide for this step in detail, it will be available in your software districuton CD

Hi JS
In adddition to my earlier suggestion, I had updated in detail in another thread.
Please try this
Hi Jith
When you are using local directory configuration without LDAP, you need to follow the procedure below
If no LDAP connection is available, you can temporarily use the local driver to
maintain user account passwords in a flat file, password.properties, located in
eSourcing/config. This should only be used as a temporary solution for sandboxes or
development systems, as you cannot go into Production mode with a directory
configuration using the local driver
Incase the file password.properties isnt available in your eSourcing/config folder, you need to do some settings as mentioned below, the password.properties file gets generated automatically.
Local Directory Set up
Use this configuration when connecting to a real LDAP server is impossible, inconvenient, or undesired.
Property Setting
External ID Enabled
Display Name Disabled
Usage Active Buyside
Driver Local
Directory Username Enter any text, such as n/a
Directory Password Enter any text, such as n/a
UID Schema No value is needed
Changeable Passwords Enabled
Expired Passwords Enabled
New Accounts Enabled
Browsing Disabled
All Controls Disabled
Properties No values are needed
Let me know if the issue is resolved, if this is successful and your SMTP is configured correctly, you will receive the welcome mail from the application for a Buyer Account that you created at that point.

Yes, Tridip.
SMTP: System Information -> Deamons -> Email Enabled
Logged in as Enterprise User --> System Properties --> Set --> messaging.smtp.mailhost
Value = our full qualified hostname
Context = Enterprise context.(other than system context)
Port = 25 (default)
These are the settings I got.
Please let me know.
Thanks

Please note that the SMTP mailbox should be able to receive and send mails
Whatever SMTP server details you have maintained in the Deamon configuration, should be the same messaging server that is used by the users that are configiured in that domain.
If you are in a live system, check if the user whom you are sending the mail to is also part of the same exchange sever domain as the SMTP server that is configured for the SAP E-Sourcing application,
If this setting is done, then it should work.
IF your SMTP server for the ESO system is not the same as the server that's used by your company, then it will not receive or send mails to an external server.
