The SAP* user will now get activated and all others user will get deactivated. You can log on with the SAP* user and fix your configuration as per the requirement in cases of  incorrect user management configuration.

    1. Hello Kumar,

      For dual stack java backend will be ABAP system.If you create a user in ABAP stack then user will reflect in the java stack. In that case in ABAP stack any user having authorization of SU01 can create user which will reflect in the java stack.

      Thanks,
