Clarification and preparation of measures for the use of the Security Audit Log
Backup concepts
This SAP training covers the introduction/basics of SAP administration. You will learn the basic functions of the SAP system. You will learn the most important administrative tasks, such as user administration and roles, the SAP data transport system, security in the SAP environment, administrative background tasks and system monitoring.

User name without restrictions - critical? Depending on the release of the SAP_BASIS component in your system, invisible special characters may end up in the user name. This is especially critical if only spaces or alternate spaces are used for the user name when creating a new user. In Unicode systems, "alternative" spaces, so-called "wide spaces", can be used in addition to the normal space character (hexadecimal value 20). For example, the key combination "ALT+0160" can be used to insert non-breaking spaces. If a user is now created whose user name consists exclusively of such alternative spaces, this can be confusing. This is because entries for this user ID do appear in change documents, but the impression is created that the entry was created by a non-existent / deleted user. This circumstance can lead to confusion. In addition, certain special characters in the user name can also lead to errors, for example in the Change and Transport System (CTS). This is because the user name is also used in the CTS-ORG to create a file with the same name in the transport directory. Furthermore, there are letters/characters that look identical in different alphabets, but have a different hexadecimal value in the character set. This means that confusion in user names cannot be completely ruled out. Seemingly identical user names then stand for different users.
Concept
Basis includes a client/server architecture and configuration, a relational database management system (DBMS), and a graphical user interface (GUI). In addition to the interfaces between system elements, Basis includes a development environment for R/3 applications, a data directory, and user and system administration and monitoring tools.

"Shortcut for SAP Systems" makes many tasks in the area of the SAP basis much easier.


SAP Basis is the foundation of any SAP system. You can find a lot of useful information about it on this page: "www.sap-corner.de".

This adjustment process may be complex in the event of major changes and should not be carried out on the production system.
