User Data (ttaad2500m000)

Use this session to list the LN users, which you can maintain or display in the User Data (ttams1100s000) session.

Click Convert Changes To Runtime DD on the appropriate, to create or change the user file. The user file u<user name> is located in the $BSE\lib\user directory.

To make sure that the LN user can use information from a database, click Convert LN users to Database Users on the appropriate menu to give the user the proper authorizations.

You must restart Tools to make the changes effective.

If you delete a record with user data, all user data in the sessions linked to that user are removed as well. If you change a user from super user to normal user, all authorizations will be deleted.

Note

If you have started this session by zooming, you can only find and select a record.

 

User

Specifies a user code to identify the user as an LN user.

The Tools user code is normally similar to the user code defined in the System Login field. However, it is possible to define more than one Tools user for only one system login.

When a user starts the bshell, by default the system starts with the Tools User code that is equal to the system login code. It is possible to start the bshell with a different Tools user code by setting the environment variable "USER".

Example

System loginERP LN user
davedave
davedave_01
davedave_02
johnjohn
johnjohn_01

 

If the user with the system login dave starts the bshell, by default he will be user dave in Tools. The user dave may fill the environment variable USER with dave_01 or dave_02, to start with another Tools User.

If the user with the system login dave sets the environment variable USER to john or john_01 and tries to start the bshell, he will get the message: Not authorized to run as user john. In the same way, Unix user john may only start the bshell with Tools User john or john_01 but not with dave, dave_01 or dave_02.

Name

Specifies the name of the person that must be made a LN user.

User Type

Specifies the user type of the LN user.

Package Combination

Specifies the package combination that is used to link the user to a version of Tools.

Company

Specifies the default company for the LN user. The user will work with data from that company.

Note

If the user is a normal user, the company authorization for the entered company will be automatically generated.

Language

The code of the Software Language in which the user starts up the application.

Data Language

The code of the Data Language of the user.
