This is NOT recommended by SAP (or me).
By default, you can’t save passwords in SAPGUI shortcuts under SAPGUI 7.10. However, if for some reason you would like the passwords to be saved for shortcuts, you could follow the steps below, and edit the (existing) shortcuts to save your passwords.
You will find the path HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SAP
exists in the registry once you’ve installed SAPGUI 7.10
(windows cmd: regedit)
Create the following keys under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SAP:
\SAPShortcut\Security
Create a String Value under Security: ‘EnablePassword’ and set it to 1
This will allow you to save passwords for SAP Shortcuts.
To reset this to 0, run sapshcut.exe without parameters – this will reset the entry to 0.
Use note: 205487 User-defined text on SAPGui logon screen to add text to the default SAPGui logon screen.
Steps:
Text is limited to 16 lines and 60 columns
Also, You can incorporate graphic icons by inserting icon codes in the text.
Eg.: The following code: @1D@ will insert the STOP ICON on the page.
You can get a list of codes and icons by running report “RSTXICON”
To change the SAP standard fonts for SAPGUI
e.g: C:\Program Files\SAP\FrontEnd\SAPgui\themes\HighCont
Size, Bold, Charset, Pitch and Italic can be changed too.
