• Key Concepts: 
  Expiration timestamp is a feature of SAP Identity Management (BC-IAM-IDM) that allows administrators to set a specific date and time when a user's access to the system will expire. This feature is used to ensure that users are only able to access the system for a limited amount of time, and can be used to help maintain security and compliance. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To set an expiration timestamp for a user, an administrator must first log into the SAP Identity Management system. Once logged in, they can navigate to the user's profile page and select the "Expiration Timestamp" option. From there, they can enter the desired date and time when the user's access should expire. Once saved, the user will no longer be able to access the system after that date and time. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  It is important to remember that expiration timestamps are only effective if they are set correctly. If an administrator sets an expiration timestamp too far in the future, it may not be effective in limiting user access. Additionally, it is important to remember that expiration timestamps can be changed or removed at any time by an administrator.
