Default option for password in UME

Hi,

Is there a way that when we create new users in UME, that the default option for password management is set to "Disabled Password" in stead of "Define Initial Password".

We are using SPML SOAP message to create the users and if there is no password in the SPML messgae, the user is created, but no logon is possible as the system expects that you should have a password.

We will like to avoid sending in the password as part of user creation process, as these users will have to be created with no password. These users will never do a basis authentication, but are needed for SSO using HTTP header variable..

Thanks,

Vikrant sud

Is this a portal or what?

On the ABAP side this is possible, so I would expect the Java APIs to offer the same.

Looking in the PASSWORD structure is the wrong place, try the LOGONDATA (if it is done the same way). If you activate it in the call it should delete the PASSWORD regardless.

Sorry, I have an ABAP mentality... but consistent APIs make it easier (to have to understand less concepts) and SAP increasingly does this.

Cheers,

Julius
