Dropdown box value in the seCatt script

Former Member

Dear SDN Community,

I have written the seCatt script to create the multiple userid's. My script fails with the following message.

S00348 Field USLOGOND-USTYP. input value is longer than screen field.

The UserType field is a dropdown box in the logon data tab of SU01 transaction.

Can you please advice me how I can specify the value of the dropdown box in the eCatt script.

Thanks!

Surya.

If the user is a dialog user type, I wouldn't even include this in your script because the technical name is too long for the CATT to handle it. Try deleting this field from your script and running a test run. I've run into this before (for any of the user types) and if the user type needed to be changed after the users were created, I just updated them via SU10.

I will assume you will be exceuting ECATTs for creating dialog users only. In anycase, make the the user type field as an input parameter field as you might have done for other fields such as firstname, lastname...

Leave this field values blank or fill with "A" (A=Dialog user) in you input file.

If the mass user creating is for user types other than dialog users then fill that field with the below values

"B" for system users

"C" for comm users

"S" for service users

"L" for reference users.

Thanks,

Jay
