Users specific password management

[Former Member]

Hello there,

Can anyone tell me if there is any way to unset password expiry period

for a specific user.What i want is that a particular user's password never expires.

This i want only for one user and not for all.

Thanks

Hello Sudesh,

It is possible to set a non expiring password for a specific user. For this the field BCDA1 of the table USR02 table has to be changed to a faroff date say 31.12.2010 or like.

This cant be done via sap Tcode se11/se16 etc as to change the value of the field it will ask you for the access key.

The otherway to do this is to do this from the database level ie from sql prompt in case or Oracle database.

For this go as follows:

go to cmd prompt

sqlplus /nolog

conn /as sysdba

update sap<id>.usr02 set BCDA1 = '20101231' where BNAME ='ABCD';

commit;

for example:

update sapd01.usr02 set BCDA1 = '20101231' where BNAME = 'BASIS';

commit;

This will solve your purpose.

Dont forget to award point if solved.

Regards
