I want to create new user for SAP module. I am having user id as sap* (someone has said that this is super user id); when I login with this id and go to IMG for configurations. A message is displayed that I am not authorised to change the details with sap* user.

What is the procedure for creating new user which have all features define under SAP* user and which could allow me to make the configruations.

Creating new user with superuser authorizations.

1. Goto SU01 --
    username : sapuser
    |-->Create.

2. In default settings, give
                            :Mr
   first name          : sap
   lastname            : user

3. Goto next tab,
     give       initial password  :1234
                repeat password : 1234

4. Goto profiles.
    type-    sap_all     (say enter)
                sap_new   (say enter)
    Then save....
    See the message in status bar,  (user created successfully)

5. Login with the new user. change the password. now this user contains all superuser authorizations.   *-- Ravikumar
