Besides mapping a X.509 user to a given user ID in an SAP system, you can also map the user by an alias or to a specific user. In step 4.3 I’ll show the configuration for alias mapping, and in 4.4 for a specific user.

Create alias for user

Tx: SU01

Create a test user X509TEST. Add Alias tobias

User: X509Test
Alias: tobias

Use Alias of a user as log on data

The pre-requisites are the same as in step 4.2. The steps in the rule wizard are the same too, just select alias for login as.

Tx: CERTRULE

Validate

Log on to SAP WebGui via X.509.

Logged on user: X509TEST
