Hi Sabari,

That parameter controls how the check for expired passwords behave with SAP logon tickets. Here are the values and their meaning.

0 = Ignore requirement for password change(=> backward compatible)

1 = Popup with selection 2 or 3 (User decides, default)

2 = Password change dialog only (Entry: Old and new password)

3 = Deactivation of password (automatic, no popup)

Regards,

Mike

This occurs only in 4.6x systems.

The special value -1 indicates "value not specified by profile parameter, use default value". Since the default value depends on the ABAP release but the kernel is downwards-compatible (i.e. 4.6D kernel can be used with all 4.6x ABAP systems) this "trick" is used.

Don't worry about that. If you dislike to see it, simply add that profile parameter to the DEFAULT.PFL file setting a valid value (0 - 3).
