Definition

Select the required logon procedure

Use

The following options are available:

Standard Logon Order

In this setting, the order of the logon procedures is decided by the system.

  1. Logon Using HTTP Fields
  2. Logon with SSL Certificate
  3. Logon with SAP Logon/Assertion Ticket
  4. Logon with SAP Assertion Ticket
  5. HTTP basic authentication
  6. Logon Using SAP User and Password (RFC Logon)
  7. Logon via SAML
  8. Logon Using User Data Stored in Service

If the All Logons flag is set, all logon procedures are checked one by one until a check is successful. If the flag is not set, only the first procedure in the sequence is checked. If it is not successful, an appropriate error appears.

A logon procedure is then only checked when the corresponding logon data is also provided by the HTTP request.

Alternative Logon Order

Choose to this option to modify the standard logon order to meet your requirements. You can change the order of the procedures or remove individual procedures.

The following check procedures can be used or removed:

  • Logon Using HTTP Fields
  • Logon with SSL Certificate
  • Logon with SAP Logon/Assertion Ticket
  • Logon with SAP Assertion Ticket
  • HTTP basic authentication
  • Logon Using SAP User and Password (RFC Logon)
  • Logon via SAML
  • Logon Using User Data Stored in Service

You can change the order of the checks to meet your requirements.

If the All Logons flag is set, all logon procedures are checked one by one until a check is successful. If the flag is not set, only the first procedure in the sequence is checked. If it is not successful, an appropriate error appears.

Required with Logon Data

In this setting, only the logon data stored in the service is checked. No other logon checks are performed.

Here, you should only store users that have been created as service users (composite users) in transaction SU01. If you store a dialog user, a warning message will appear.

Required with SSL Certificate

Choose this option if you want the logon check to apply to an SSL certificate only. In this case, the flag for using SSL must be selected under Security Requirement.
