Trigger an event when user gets locked due to incorrect password

Posted on Jul 15, 2004 at 12:44 PM 17 Views

Hi,

does anybody have an idea how to accomplish this?

Since I believe that there is more than one way to do it, could you, please, also suggest which one you think is the best and why?

Best regards

    Hi

    I remember a BAdI which can possibly be utilized for this purpose, but couldn't recall its name. Did you search for that?

      Hi,

      I have not searched for BAdI - mainly because I have not worked with it yet. I only know the transaction codes SE18-9 and have started reading just a moment ago.

      Thanks

    Hi Maros

    Just now I found it but unfortunately I think what I suggested was not appropriate for your task. It is not a BAdI, but a user-exit. The enhancement name is 'SUSR0001' and it can be utilized after user's logon for e.g to make customer-specific logon checks. It is likely to be called after successful logons I think.

    But as a new suggestion. You may find locked users by a query on the table 'USR02'. If the field 'UFLAG' has a value other than the initial value, then the user is somehow locked.

    Also, the function module 'SUSR_USER_LOCKSTATE_GET' retrieves the lock status of a user. Its output is in structure of "USLOCK" and shows the states for

    WRNG_LOGON --> Locked because of wrong logon

    LOCAL_LOCK --> Locked by admin

    GLOB_LOCK --> Locked by global admin

    For each field; 'L' = 'Locked' and 'U' = 'Unlocked'.

    I think, you can schedule a job for a program utilizing the above technique for what you wanted to trigger in your question. I hope this can help you.

    By the way, if you are still interested in BAdIs, you can study the course 'BC425 - Enhancements & Modifications'.

      Hi Serdar,

      I did the program (just select on usr02) and scheduled it in the background until "I" 😊 find more inteligent solution. User exit would be great, but this one kicks in after user has successfully logged on whilst I need something that is called right after u-name/psswd check - something like audit, that records incorrect logon attempts.

      But anyway thank you for all the hints and nkowledge of your juicy brain you shared with me.

      Best regards
