how to set default value to user attribute in customized information tab

[former_member206159]

Hi Experts,

we created a custom attribute in Administration-managed custom attributes and now we are getting that attribute under customized information tab in user admin->identity management.

This attribute is coming for all users and it is working fine and I can give value to this attribute also.

Now the problem is we have more than 10000 users in the portal and we have to assign same value to this custom attribute to all the users.

Is there any possiblity of setting the value to all the user without coding.

If it is not possible then how can I proceed for coding.

any help will be appreciated.

What is your UME source? If it's ABAP or LDAP, can it be changed there?

If not, then you need to do some coding... There are no bulk change features in the /useradmin tool.

Hi Michael,

Yes my data source is LDAP. This attribute is added in the portal itself and I don't think it is possible to set the value of custom attribute at LDAP.

Shanta : We already created the custom attribute and it is also appearing in the Customized information

Problem is we need to set a value to that attribute. This should be same to all the users coming from LDAP.

My Basis people are asking the funtion module which calls when we click on the Customized information tab. Is that possible to know?

Or we can set this value by writing a piece of code in webdynrpo java?

Appreciate your inputs

No function module is involved! It's all Java and no source code is available. You can write a Java app (WDJ or portal component) to maintain the attribute. Try IUserMaint setAttribute as a starting point...

Hi,

Refer page no 4 & 8: we can set value for the attribute.

I guess, the same attribute value will come for LDAP users also.
