Attribute for populating Manager in SAP connector

Hi All,

We are using Identity manager version 9.0 version. We got a requirement from the client that we need to update the manager details in SAP. We are using SAP R/3 connector using Appserver connectivity and we got the BAPI transport package installed on client's SAP server.

We can see user's details, roles, groups, profiles, SMTP, Fax, Phone, Company. However, I am unable to locate the attribute which will store the manager's details. 

In SAP system, the attribute shows as 'Manager_ID'.

If you have done a similar integration or if you are aware how to update manager's ID in SAP, kindly suggest the attribute name.

Thanks,

Simran

  • Hi Simran,

    in an uncustomized Netweaver 7.5 or S/4 HANA 1809 - 2023 installation manager relations are possible to build in HCM module (Employee) or in Businesspartner area. Where is the manager relation  shown in SAP GUI? What kind of SAP system installation you have (have a look at menu point "System -> Status - >Navigation button in SAP GUI)?

    Regards,

  • Hi Tino, 

    We have multiple SAP systems including SAP GRC, SAP BW, SAP FIORI. We are not connecting to the HANA/Netweaver module.

    We have integrated the SAP systems using SAP connector, do you think that adding additional authorizations on the service account will allow us to view user's manager field. As demonstrated  by our client, in SAP, this attribute is called 'MANAGER_ID'

    Thanks,

    Simran
