Parameter description
Most operating systems have a concept of different users. But when anR/3 system is started, the whole system is handled like a single programand is associated with the user (on operating system level), who startedR/3.
This profile parameter specifies which user should be used to start R/3.If you use a different user, this affects most of R/3's operations.
But there are some exceptions:
An SAP program running under an identification other than the one inthis parameter will never create a SCSA on its own. If there is no SCSAand the profile value of scsa/autocreate ison, it calls the program
scsa/create_daemon/exe_file to do this. In a dedicated installation,the program 'sapmscsa' (which is stored inscsa/create_daemon/exe_file shouldhave set-UserId priviliges and makes sure the SCSA is owned by thecorrect user.
