  • Key Concepts: 
    Global User Manager (GUM) is a component of the SAP User Administration (BC-SEC-USR) module. It is used to manage user accounts and roles across multiple systems in a single, centralized location. GUM allows administrators to create, modify, and delete user accounts and roles in a secure and efficient manner. It also provides an audit trail of all changes made to user accounts and roles. 
    
    How to use it: 
    To use GUM, administrators must first create a Global User Manager instance. This instance will be used to manage user accounts and roles across multiple systems. Once the instance is created, administrators can add users and assign them roles. Administrators can also modify existing user accounts and roles, as well as delete them if necessary. 
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    When creating user accounts, it is important to ensure that the passwords are secure and not easily guessed. Additionally, administrators should regularly review the list of users and roles to ensure that only authorized personnel have access to the system.
