How To Use the BPC Mass User Management Tool
1. Business Scenario In this guide, we will explore how to use a custom program to do mass maintenance of the SAP BusinessObjects Planning & Consolidation 7.0 and 7.5, version for NetWeaver (hence forward referred to as BPC_NW) security objects. These objects include users, teams, team assignments, task profiles, member access profiles, task profile assignments, and finally, member access profile assignments. This custom program uses the BPC_NW user management APIs, the same APIs used by the BPC_NW Admin Console, to correctly create or update the associated security objects. This program simply provides an interface which the user can use to upload files containing all of the relevant data in which the security objects can be created from.
2. Background Information Most BPC_NW security objects are not transportable using the BPC_NW Transport Framework. In some cases, it can be really cumbersome to re-create these objects throughout the landscape. This custom program allows the user to export as well as import all BPC_NW security objects. The export/import functions use comma, tab, or pipe delimited text files as the data transfer medium. Example files have been supplied with this guide. While the user can simply create files from scratch and upload them into the system, the real power of this program is that it allows the user to export these security objects from an AppSet, and then import them into another AppSet in the same system, or in a remote system, essentially transporting these objects across the landscape without using the BPC_NW transports framework.
3. Prerequisites Required/recommended expertise or prior knowledge

How To Use the BPC Mass User Management Tool
4. Step-by-Step Procedure This How-To guide contains transport request files, K900321.EPM and R900321.EPM. This transport request contains all the NetWeaver objects that are required to complete this How-To Guide. Programs
• ZUJE_MASS_USER_MGMT BPC_NW Mass User Management Tool
As the process of importing a transport request is not covered here, it is suggested that you seek assistance from your basis administrator in order to have this transport request imported into your system. Note: These objects must be imported into your system before continuing any further. To begin using the tool, log on to the backend NetWeaver system via SAPgui, and run the ZUJE_MASS_USER_MGMT program from transaction code SE38, by entering the program name and clicking the “Execute“ button.

How To Use the BPC Mass User Management Tool
4.1 Exporting Users
1. From the initial screen, select the appropriate radio button for “Export Data“.
2. Next, enter the name of the AppSet which contains the data which is to be exported. In this guide, the APSHELL_HTG AppSet will be used for all examples. Also, enter the file path and file name for the export file. Finally, select the delimiter value for the file. Comma, pipe, and tab delimiters are supported.
3. Next, select the appropriate radio button for “Export Users”.
4. Finally, click the “Execute” button to start the export process.

5. The output file is then generated.
4.2 Importing Users
1. From the initial screen, select the appropriate radio button for “Import Data“.
2. Next, enter the name of the AppSet where you want to create the users. In this guide, the APSHELL_HTG AppSet will be used for all examples. Also, enter the file path and file name for the import file. Finally, select the delimiter value for the file.
Note: The file must contain the following structure in a comma delimited format:
USER_ID User ID
FULLNAME Full Name of User
EMAIL Email Address of User
The file structure is exactly the same as what is generated by the export function. An example file might look like the following: COMX_ALL\BROWNJ,Jane Brown,[email protected]
COMX_ALL\SMITHJ,Joe Smith,[email protected]
August 2010 4
How To Use the BPC Mass User Management Tool
Note: It is very important that the values in the FULLNAME column do not contain any commas if the delimiter is set to “Comma”. This will cause issues when parsing the data. We suggest using a different delimiter if your user’s full name contains commas.
3. Select the appropriate radio button for “Import Users”.
4. To start the process, click the “Execute” button from the application toolbar.
5. The new users are then created for the AppSet and a message screen is displayed. This screen will show all associated success and failure messages.
