USR02 table edits

Posted on Dec 15, 2004 at 07:08 PM 439 Views

We have developed a user provisioning application for SAP HR.

We want a user's password history and "Date of last password change" fields updated when a user's password is changed. However, the application changes the password as the SAP admin, not as the SAP user. This is a problem because the SAP BAPI calls that we are using, do not allow an SAP admin to update these fields on behalf of another user.

Is there some API available that will allow an SAP admin to change a user's password (and related fields) on behalf of that user. What APIs are used when an SAP user changes his password from the SAP GUI? Can these APIs be used in this case?

Also, is there a programmatic way for a user to change his own password?

Thanks
