14. What is the best way to list all profile parameters that pertain to login sensitive rules and policies (ie. Login/password_expiration_time)?

a) Run report rsparam from sa38 and select the checkbox for the unsubstitued values. Then search report for keyword "login." This will display the login parameters for the system.
b) Use transaction rz10 to display all parameters.
c) From the operating system, view all parameters from the profile directory.

ANSWER: A

SAP report rsparam is an extremely useful program that can be run from sa38 to generate a list of all available profile parameters in your SAP system. The variant for unsubstituted parameters provides a complete list. You may then search on key words to find the parameters that you would like to set. This report is useful in security as well as all other Basis profile parameters of interest.
