Implementation of userer

[chr1s]

Hello community,

I just installed Alfresco Community 3.4 and wondering if there is any possibility to implement users from SAP to Alfresco?

Thanks for help,

What do you mean by "implement users"?

[chr1s]

All users/members i want to use for alfresco are already inputed in the SAP System. So I do not want to input all of them a second time in the alfresco system; instead of that i want to export them from SAP and import them to Alfresco, if it' s possible?

What would normally be done is that both SAP and Alfresco import their user details from the same directory server rather than having one application pull information from another.

Ok, thank you.
So you think i should use a software like Open LDAP to have a generell member storage that can be used by alfresco and SAP?
That seems logical..

But is there still an oportunity to import users from SAP to Alfresco?

Is it possible to use the Alfresco Community Edition 3.4 b with LDAP?

[mrogers]

Yes of course.
