Notes on message output

You should never use the VB.Net Msgbox and Inputbox functions on servers. Use the VID_Write2Log, RaiseMessage, or AppData.Instance.RaiseMessage functions.

For examples of One Identity Manager Service log file output, see the script examples on the installation medium in the QBM\dvd\AddOn\SDK\ScriptSamples directory.

Notes on using date values

  • If no date is given, the date 12/30/1899 is used internally. Take this into account when values are compared, for example, when used in reports.

    Example of an expression for displaying data columns in reports

    {IIF(Person.ExitDate.ToString() = "12/30/1899 12:00:00 AM","-",Person.ExitDate)}

  • Time stamps, such as insert dates or modification dates, are stored in the database with the respective UTC. The object layer transforms this time data into the currently valid time zone data when an object is loaded. The user, therefore, sees all the values in local time. When an object is saved the current time zone data is transformed into UTC data.

    NOTE: The use of DateTime.Now in scripts must be critically tested. It is better to use DateTime.UTCNow than DateTime.Now to display the value to users.

  • It is not recommended to convert date values in non-U.S. notation from the String data type to the DateTime data type in scripts:

    Value = CDate("2014-12-31")

    This always causes a problem if the script is running on a U.S. system. In the best case, you are sent an error message like "Cast from string...to type Date is not valid". In the worst case, the wrong date is returned as month and day are swapped (3.12.2014 becomes 12.3.2014).

    If possible, you should avoid a string conversion altogether in this case. The DateTime type provides several constructors for this purpose. For the example above, that would be:

    Value = new DateTime(2014, 12, 31)

    However, if the data type String is to be used, the ISO date notation should be applied as this is converted correctly in all settings:

    Value = CDate("2014-12-31")

    Value = CDate("2014-12-31 15:22:12")

    The complicated version is to input the language code format for the date:

    Value = DateTime.Parse("12.31.2014", new CultureInfo("en-US"))

    Value = DateTime.ParseExact("12.31.2014", "mm.dd.yyyy", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture)

Using dollar ($) notation

Dollar ($) notation is used to access object properties in One Identity Manager. If you are using dollar notation you need to ensure that the value is allocated the correct data type. Dollar notation returns a String type by default. If another data type is specified, it is internally converted with ToString.

Permitted data types are:

Binary

Bool

Byte

Date

Decimal

Double

Int

Long

Short

String (default)

Text

NOTE: If you want to use a dollar sign in scripts, but not have the sign representing access to a column name, you must mask it by doubling.

Example

In Windows PowerShell scripts, instead of:

theScript.AppendLine("foreach ($Domain in $Domains)")

use:

theScript.AppendLine("foreach ($$Domain in $$Domains)")

Syntax

$<column name>:<data type>$

Examples for use in templates

The Active Directory user display name should comprise of the first and last name of the Active Directory user. The template for ADSAccount.Displayname is:

If $Givenname$<>"" And $Surname$<>"" Then

Value = $Surname$ & " " & $Givenname$

ElseIf $Givenname$<>"" Then

Value = $Givenname$

ElseIf $Surname$<>"" then

Value = $Surname$

End If

If an employee is disabled, the leaving date should be set. The template for Person.Exitdate is:

If $IsInActive:bool$ Then

Value = Date.Today

End If
