Configuring the User Consolidation

IT Asset Management (Cloud)

You can use only general criteria, or only custom criteria, or a combination of both to configure the User Consolidation, and effectively specify the field or fields that SAP uses to consolidate users in the LAW.

To configure the User Consolidation:

  1. In IT Asset Management, go to the User Consolidation page (Licenses > SAP Optimization > User Consolidation).
  2. On the User Consolidation Configuration page, in the General Criteria section, click Edit to switch to write-enabled mode.
  3. Select the check box for each field that should be used to find users to be consolidated. The following criteria are available:
    • User Name
    • Last Name, First Name
    • Email Address
    • Accounting No.
    • Phone No.
    • Phone No., Extension
  4. Click Save.

    In read-only mode, the criteria you selected are marked with Yes; unselected criteria are marked with No.

  5. On the Use Consolidation Configuration page, in the Custom Criteria section, click Add to open the Create Custom Rule dialog. Provide the following information to define the custom criteria:
