User Data (ttaad2500m000)

Use this session to specify the system data, defaults settings, authorizations, and templates applicable for the LN user. The data is necessary for the user to start up a Tools application successfully. In this session you can also specify the Tools user's address data. For example, the e-mail address, telephone number, fax number, and so on.

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

To ensure that the LN user can use information from a database, click Convert LN users to Database Users on the Zusatzoptionen 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.

Hinweis

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

 

User

A user code to identify the user as an LN user.

The Tools user code is normally similar to the user code specified in the System Login field. You can specify more than one Tools user for one system logon.

When a user starts the bshell, by default the system starts with the Tools user code that is equal to the system logon code. You can start the bshell with a different Tools user code by setting the User environment variable.

Beispiel

System logonLN user
davedave
davedave_01
davedave_02
johnjohn
johnjohn_01

 

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

If the user with the system logon dave sets the BSE_USER environment variable to john or john_01 and tries to start the bshell, the message Not authorized to run as user john appears. In the same way, UNIX user john can only start the bshell as Tools User john or john_01, but not as dave, dave_01 or dave_02.

Hinweis

After running the Change length of OS User Names (ttaad2220m000) session, a one-to-one relationship exists between system login and LN User. You can link each system login to only one LN user.

IFS User

If this check box is selected, IFS is the SoR and LN is not the owner of Security User Data. The SSO User field becomes readonly and this field becomes mandatory. The state of the Name, Email Address and Role fields depend on the data as stored in table 'User Data Maintenance Ownership Parameters' (ttaad212). In case LN is the SoR and the owner of the Security User Data, the field IFS User is not applicable.

IFS Status

This is a display field. In case LN is the SoR and the owner of Security User Data, the fields IFS User and IFS Status are not applicable.

Name

The name of the Tools user. This field becomes readonly in case the ‘Name’ User Property is owned Outside LN.

SSO User

This field is displayed only if the SSO Active check box in the SSO Parameters (ttams0100m000) session is selected. Specify the name of the user as it is known in SSO Service.

You can leave the SSO User field blank. In that case the value of the System Login field is used during the Convert to Runtime. The Infor SSO User must be unique; for example, an Infor SSO User can only be specified for one LN user.

During the convert to runtime this field is dumped into the u<user> file with the sso_user tag.

Also a $BSE/lib/user/sso/s<SSO_USER> file, that contains the Application User name, is created. The format is baanuser:<baan user name>. This file is used by the Bshell to make the mapping from SSO user to Application User.

To prevent that an end user can tamper with the configuration to get more credentials, an extra file $BSE/lib/sso.permissions is introduced for BLogin. This file contains the permissions for SSO users to impersonate a certain OS user. The system administrator must maintain the file which is only writable on OS level by the system administrator. It must be considered as having the same security status as for example the OS password file. If this file does not exist, BLogin refuses to handle SSO requests.

Register the SSO permissions file location in the Systems (ttaad0550m000) session. Updates on the SSO permissions file are then processed automatically. The updates are handled as part of the System Data/User Data/Text Groups option by the Convert Changes to Runtime DD (ttams2200m000) session.

Notes:

  • The file must already exist, a fresh create is not supported.
  • Data is only added. If not already present, the file is updated with the processed OS/SSO user combination.
Use Generic System User

If this check box is selected, the default OS-user identity that is used in SSO mode to run the binaries will be displayed. Any user can impersonate the Generic System User. After conversion this data is placed into the sso_config file as generic_user:<Generic User>.

The Use Generic System User field is enabled if the Overrule System User Allowed check box in the SSO Parameters (ttams0100m000) session is selected.

Identity (UUID)

The IFS identity.

System Login

The System Login code of the user. The user code specified in the User field is used as the default.

Before installing Tools, a number of system logons have to be created by the system manager by using a system administration program.

Tools checks if the logon code specified in this field exists in the password file. If not, a warning appears.

Hinweis

You can only specify system login codes that are in lower case.

Note that if SSO is active, the value of the displayed Generic System User field is used during the Convert to Runtime, instead of the System Login.

User Type

Specifies the user type of the LN user.

Package Combination

The user's package combination of the Tools software.

Package Combination

The description of the package combination.

Company

The default company that contains data that the LN user will work with.

Access to a company is only possible if the package combination of the Tools user and company are the same.

There are exceptions to this rule. The company's package combination can only differ from the user's package combination under the following restrictions:

  • Both package combinations must include the same library authorizations.
  • The package VRCs in both package combinations can only be different if both package VRCs are derived from each other, or both package VRCs are derived from the same package VRC, and no changes in data definitions or domains have been made in the derived package VRCs.
Hinweis

If the user is a normal user, the company authorization for the specified company is automatically generated.
