I want to know what's different between Technical User in SU01 and normal user from password policy perspective in SAP NW ABAP Stack.

Password rules or password policies in SAP NW ABAB Stack are related to the User Type (Table USR02 -> Field USTYP) . A Technical User can also be a Dialog user, Service user, System user, and so on. In other words: It doesn't matter if the user is a technical user or not. Only the User Type is relevant for the password policies.

Hello,

I mostly agree, but to complete the picture I would like to mention the quite flexible option by using transaction SECPOL to define password policies. With that it depends on the assigned security policy in the user master data, independently from the user type in USR02.

Kind regards

Jan
