Sometimes there will be a requirement to terminate a user session.
For example: An user has run a report or program with inappropriate selection criteria, which leads work process going to PRIV mode occupying so much memory impacting performance of the system. In those cases, you will have to check with the user and terminate his session or logoff user system wide if he is no longer working.
To terminate a user from the system either locally or system wide :
Go to SM04 transaction. Select the user to be terminated. In the below example am terminating user TEST from the system.
Go to User -> Log off user -> Local (To log off user from this instance alone)
Go to User -> Log off user -> System-Wide (To log off user from all the instances of the system)

System prompts you to confirm the deletion of process.
Click on Yes to confirm the termination. System terminates the process and prompts a message on the screen confirming the same as below
Please note in the above scenario, a process can be terminated through “Process -> Cancel with core” option also but in this case core file will get generated regarding the same

Hello Durgaprasad,
While creating Mass User IDs with SU10, system will create user ids but with random passwords. How can we provide End Users passwords for 100+ user ids ? For 10 - 20 User IDs its okk but what about 100+ user ids ? Is there any file get created for those random passwords ?
Regards,
Prasad D
best way to assign one inital password for multiple users is via eCATT or customer program using FM BAPI_USER_CHANGE
Hi,can you explain in detail what does cancel with/without core mean? Also, where do core files get generated?
