Hi Team,

We are using SAP Netweaver 6.40 and i am trying to set "Not contain the userid as part of the password " as part of the password rules we have and looks like this predefined SAP rule is This rule applies only in systems up to SAP R/3 4.6D.Can anyone lemme know how this rule can be manually implemented.

Thanking you.

Hi,

yes you are right.

As of Release 6. 10 (Web Application Server), this rule "Not contain the userid as part of the password " was removed.

check Note 2467 - Password rules and preventing incorrect logons

it is not possible to implement this rule manually. but you can add all userid in table USR40 as exception.

so user can not use his userid as password. but you can only prevent that user is not used his userid as password ,

the requirement of not containing userid as password is not fulfill

regards,
