[aayushsinha]

INTRODUCTION -

 

In this blog, I want to give you an overview and some information about User Profile.The user profile is used frequently throughout the application, for instance, to make it simple to identify the individuals taking part in a discussion. In addition to the display name and ID, the user profile picture appears when you choose a user in any dialog, such as when you assign a manager to a user on the Users management page.

 

You may also view the whole user profile to learn more about the individual in the following areas:

 

1. Each conversation participant's name and photo appear in the Collaboration panel. You can view the complete profile and initiate a one-on-one conversation with the user by hovering the cursor over their image.

 

2. In the Event area, the user whose photo is associated with an event or a task is shown in those details. The profile of the user who needs to review a task, for instance, is displayed.

 

3. By clicking on the user's ID in the Users section of user management, you may view the whole profile.

 

Making a new user's basic user profile

 

A system administrator must enter at least a user ID, the user's first and last names, which appear automatically in the user profile, when creating a new user in the user management section.

 

 

Once you open the SAC tenant - You can navigate to Profile from the right corner of the SAC page.

 

To view and update details, click your profile picture to launch the Profile Settings dialog.

 

 

A placeholder image for a photo is shown by default. Choose Upload Profile Image from the Profile Options window or click the placeholder to upload your own photo from your computer.

 

Your profile data will be taken from your SAP Cloud ID profile if you use SAP Cloud Identity (ID). Choose Edit Profile & Change Password from the Profile Settings dialogue to edit your SAP Cloud ID profile.

 

Change Password

 

Choose Edit Profile & Change Password in your user profile if you are connecting with the SAP Identity Authentication service (IAS) or using authentication through a SAML Identity Provider (IdP). Your user profile will contain a section called Password. You will be taken to the password change page if you choose Change Password.
