  • Key Concepts: 
    Change user ID is a feature in SAP Identity Management (BC-IAM-IDM) that allows users to change their user ID. This feature is useful for users who have forgotten their user ID or need to change it for security reasons. It also allows administrators to assign new user IDs to users who have been assigned an incorrect one. 
    
    How to use it: 
    To change a user ID, the user must first log into the SAP system using their current user ID. Once logged in, they can select the “Change User ID” option from the menu. This will open a window where they can enter their new user ID and confirm the change. 
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    When changing a user ID, it is important to ensure that the new user ID is unique and not already in use by another user. It is also important to remember that any changes made to a user ID will take effect immediately and cannot be undone.
