Just to be honest, I stole the summary of this issue from 
jshyman<https://communities.bmc.com/people/jshyman> but the answer to this was 
concerning Analytics and I could not find another thread so here goes.

If a user logs into Remedy using all lowercase then AREA LDAP checks with LDAP, 
which is case-insensitive, and returns a positive result. Remedy then checks 
the log in information with the Remedy Login ID in CTM:People and finds a match 
and the user is logged in with all their expected rights..
However, if a user logs into Remedy using mixed case or call CAPS then AREA 
LDAP checks with LDAP, which is case-insensitive, and returns a positive 
result. Remedy then checks the log in information with the Remedy Login ID in 
CTM:People and does not find a match, due to Oracle being case-sensitive, and 
the user is logged in as a guest.

The easy solution would be to tell end-users to use all lower case when they 
log into Remedy but instead our Problem Management team decided this was a 
recurring issue with Remedy and opened a PBI on it. Does anyone have a thought 
as to how I can capture the login ID and drop it to lower case on both the UT 
and mid-tier? Or an any other useful suggestion will be appreciated.
