Hello all. I am trying to find documentation on the available user parameters set in SU3 for self-service or in SU01 by an admin.
I frequently have users with issues with various reports, exports, etc. When all else fails, I remove all of their user parameters, the issue is resolved, and I add them back one by one until I find the offending incorrect parameter.
Some of the parameters are self explanatory -- like Company Code, Currency, etc.
But other, like GWRE for Report Writer, is just a series of X's. Like -- X XXX XEX....
I can't figure out how to tell what most of them mean.
Thanks so much.

Hello Michael,
Parameters are exactly not needed, it is present there just for user's benefit, as suppose user needs to access particular company code always,and he dont need to put that everytime,so he can put that in parameters and it will automatically get filled.
So its suggested that whenever you create new users, delete the parameters,users can maintain it on their own if its needed through SU3.
If extra parameters will be there ,it can create problem,but if its not there then it will not be problem,its just opposite to authorization, strange
Hope it helps,

Hi,
This parameter field automatically gets filled wen a user opens a particular T-code if corresponding object and value is maintained for it.If a user wants he can change the assigned parameters through SU3 .

Hi Amit,
That is not strictly true (and the link contains incorrect information).
Some parameters have historically been used to provide authorisation. One of the most commonly used ones is EFB which is used to allow creation of a PO without reference to a PR. That is only one example, there are lots in HR.

Thanks Alex for correcting me, please provide some documents or link, where I can know everything about parameters.
