How to edit a synchronization project

Synchronization projects in which a tenant is already used as a base object can also be opened in the Manager. You can, for example, check the configuration or view the synchronization log in this mode. The Synchronization Editor is not started with its full functionality. You cannot run certain functions, such as, running synchronization or simulation, starting the target system browser and others.

NOTE: The Manager is locked for editing throughout. To edit objects in the Manager, close the Synchronization Editor.

To open an existing synchronization project in the Synchronization Editor

  1. Select the Azure Active Directory | Tenants category.
  2. Select the tenant in the result list. Select the Change master data task.
  3. Select the Edit synchronization project task.

Azure Active Directory domains

A base domain is linked to the core directory in the cloud. You can also add other user defined domains in Azure Active Directory, which you can then allocate to Microsoft cloud services. One Identity Manager only loads verified domain data into the database. It is not possible to edit data in One Identity Manager.

To obtain an overview of a domain

  1. Select the Azure Active Directory | Verified domains category.
  2. Select the domain in the result list.
  3. Select the Azure Active Directory domain overview task.

Azure Active Directory user accounts

You use One Identity Manager to manage user accounts in Azure Active Directory. The user requires a subscription to access the service plans in Azure Active Directory. User accounts obtain the required access rights to the resources through membership in groups.

Detailed information about this topic

Linking user accounts to employees

The main feature of One Identity Manager is to map employees together with the master data and permissions available to them in different target systems. To achieve this, information about user accounts and permissions can be read from the target system into the One Identity Manager database and linked to employees. This provides an overview of the permissions for each employee in all of the connected target systems. One Identity Manager offers the option of managing user accounts and their permissions. You can provision modifications in the target systems. Employees are supplied with the necessary permissions in the connected target systems according to their function in the company. Regular synchronization keeps data consistent between target systems and the One Identity Manager database.

Because requirements vary between companies, One Identity Manager offers different methods for supplying user accounts to employees. One Identity Manager supports the following methods for linking employees and their user accounts:

  • Employees can automatically obtain their account definitions using user account resources. If an employee does not yet have a user account in a tenant, a new user account is created. This is done by assigning account definitions to an employee using the integrated inheritance mechanism and subsequent process handling.

    When you manage account definitions through user accounts, you can specify the way user accounts behave when employees are enabled or deleted.

  • When user accounts are inserted, they can be automatically assigned to an existing employee or a new employee can be created if necessary. In the process, the employee master data is created on the basis of existing user account master data. This mechanism can be implemented if a new user account is created manually or by synchronization. However, this is not the One Identity Manager default method. You must define criteria for finding employees for automatic employee assignment.
  • Employees and user accounts can be entered manually and assigned to each other.
