Hello,

I want to change "Default" data in CUA from Global to Local

Now, I know that when you change fields from Local to Global and redistribute changes, the Local data is over-written.

hence you need to take precautions as described in SAP Note -

Note 611972 - SCUM: Changing the field distribution parameters

But, for changing data from Global to Local, is there need for :

1. Any particular precautions, pre-requisites?

2. Is any redistribution from Central system needed?

Hi,

I haven't tested this but in my opinion this should not be an issue. Right know those fields are disabled in all child systems and you can change them only in central system. When you do that the new values get replicated to all child systems. After this you will be able to change it in every child system but there will be no distribution of new values to other systems. Maybe I would suggest to check if there are any IDocs waiting for processing. I would process them all to sync attributes over all system for the last time.

Cheers

I would suggest to take backup of table USR01 of CUA system , which includes "Default" tab information of user master record.

If anything goes wrong , you would be able to track the changes.
