Deleted User recreation - Connected Profile Parameter

[Former Member]

When I try to create a user which was deleted I get a pop-up message "old sapoffice data found for this user name. do you want to copy this data to the new user? "

1. I get this message only in some systems but not in all systems. What controls this pop-up message ? Is there a profile parameter or a system setting which controls this?

2. In CUA setup, would this message pop-up ?

Hi,

When you try to create a user which existed in the system in past and was deleted, then SAP automatically prompts you to check if you want to copy the old settings for that user. User history is stored in USH* tables.

So you will not have this message everywhere in your landscape, only if that user id existed in the system in past.

Cheers !!

Hi,

regarding Q2: yes, when the user is created with SU01. No, if the user is loaded by SCUG.

Hi ...

Thanks for your response.

What is the profile parameter which controls this popup, when a deleted user is recreated?

Hi, There is no profile parameter which controls this. Have a look in table SOUD, that contains history of userID's (look under Office User field).

There is also a bit of context in note: 140053

Hi Bernhard & Alex Ayers,

The information which you provided was helpful. Thank You.

Bernhard,... you mentioned that in CUA, there is no pop up ( for deleted user's address info existed). Is this just out of experience or is there a Note or a Doc from SAP which states this.

Hi,

Also if you select the option yes, it will not copy the address details such as Last Name/First name etc..

also it will not restore the logon data details or role/Profile.
