In the "Users“-tab, existing Performer Suite Users are shown. New users can be created, edited, or deleted.

Default User

The “Admin”-User is predefined and cannot be renamed nor deleted.
Please keep in mind: The default Admin User should actively be used in your daily work and uses up a license count.

Creating and Editing Users

Application User:
We recommend you create all your Performer Suite User to be an 'Application User'. This 'Application User' can switch within the Performer Suite between all SAP-Systems (BW, BO, and HANA).
Use the Role to control which authorizations this 'Application User' is allowed to have.
SAP User: An SAP BW-, BO-or HANA-User can be used to log into the Performer Suite. This SAP-User can be created manually or automatically with a simple login-process with the SAP-User credentials to the Performer Suite.
In the "Settings"-tab, the option for 'logging into the Performer Suite with an SAP-Users creates automatically a Performer Suite-User' can be enabled or disabled. The User ID and user password for the Performer Suite correspond to the SAP-User ID and password.
Roles: New and existing roles can be managed in the tab "Roles". Roles can be assigned to Performer Suite-Users from a drop-down menu. The role defines the user’s authorizations and privileges for using functions and areas within the Performer Suite.
For SAP BO- or SAP HANA-Users, only roles that allow access to BO or HANA components within the Performer Suite can be assigned.
User ID: The User ID is a unique name for users. For manually created SAP users, the user ID has to be identical to the SAP-User name.
Password: Only the Application User has a password. Please use the SAP password for SAP-Users.
E-Mail Address: The submission of an email address is mandatory for password recovery.
Full name/Department: Optional information.
Authorized for products - Migration Booster/Translations Steward: Handles if the user has general access to the products Migration Booster and Translation Steward.

Business Warehouse Landscapes:
An "Application User" or "SAP BW-User" can be assigned to your licensed BW-Systems.
The Performer Suite-User will only have access to systems, which been assigned to.
Business Objects Landscapes:
An "Application User" or "SAP BO-User" can be assigned to licensed BO-Systems (if their role allows access to the BO component).
HANA Landscapes:
An "Application User" or "SAP HANA-User" can be assigned to licensed HANA systems (if their role allows access to the HANA component).
Scenario Folders: It is possible to authorize a Performer Suite-User to access specific Scenario folders.
You can also specify in the creation settings of a role, whether the user has the right to change, delete, or create Scenarios.

License counter

Questions concerning your licensing model? Please contact us: info@bluetelligence.de

1 license-count = 1 User, no matter how many systems (connectors) the user is allowed to use.

Example:

1 Application User
BW + BO + HANA + SAC enabled in the User Management

= only 1 license-count is used.

All users: Is the count of all user in the list
Active Users: Is the count of all unlocked users in the list in relation to all licensed users
Migration Booster: Is the count of all unlocked users activated for Migration Booster in relation to all licensed users for Migration Booster
Translation Steward: Is the count of all unlocked users activated for Translation Steward in relation to all licensed users for Translation Steward

Lock/Unlock Users

With the lock/unlock functionality (see point 1), you can lock or unlock users
If a user is locked, a logon is no longer possible into the application and is not counted for the number of users (see point 2)
If you insert a new license with fewer users, the difference in users will be locked - starting with the users whose "Last Logon" date is the furthest away.
The default Admin user will never be locked

Force logout

With the "force logout" functionality it is possible to force a logout for a user of the application. This could be helpful in the following cases
- A user is logged in by mistake (e.g. program error)
- You want to install a new version of the application and want to make sure that all users are logged out
If you start this functionality the user will get a message in the next minute, that he/she will be logged out in 30 (countdown) seconds. So at least in the next 90 seconds, the selected user will be logged out.
