No Password Change Required option doesn't work

[Former Member]

Hello Experts,

We have standalone SAP Netweaver 700 Java SP17 portal which is connected to backend ECC6.0 and UME is pointing to ECC6.0 system.

We are facing issue with password expiration of Java side users "Administrator" and "SLDDSUSER" even though property "No password Change Required" is set on for both of these users in

Visual Admin -> Server --> Services --> Security Provider --> User Management --> Search for user and Select the check box "No password change Required".

Can someone please confirm if this is a known issue and solution.

If your UME is the ABAP system, then you would need to set the correct types there.

For the SLD user it is possibly COMMUNICATION -> try SERVICE type instead.

For the "Administrator" user it is possibly DIALOG -> in my opinion this is correct and the pwd should be changed if the ID is used. Though you might want to check first whether this UID really exists in the ABAP client.

Appreciate your prompt response Julius.

Seems i was not able to clearly mention the issue.

We have done NW Java 700 SP17 standalone installation and then changed the UME to backend system. And the password expiration issue is coming only for users (Administrator and SLDDSUSER which were created with standalone Java installation) - so i can't change properties of these users in ABAP stack where the UME is pointing to.

And selected option "No Password Change Required" for both of these JAVA users - but it seems not to be working.

Hope the issue is clear now and expecting a solution please.

Just for Information --> We have another landscape of SAP GRC Access Control 5.3 deployed on standalone NW Java SP17 system which has its own UME - we haven't faced this issue over there any time.

Thanks

How is your login module stack setup?

Perhaps these users do exist in the ABAP system as well? The generic SLD user you have most likely would.

Java UME is pointing to ABAP backend using dataSourceConfiguration_abap.xml (hope this is what you are asking)

No these two users are defined at Java level only.

SAP support has confirmed that "No Password change required option" doesn't work in NW04s, so we have choosen the option of "Password Expire Days" in Config Tool --> UME.

Thanks for your help
