Assigning employees automatically to Notes user accounts

When you add a user account, an existing employee can automatically be assigned to it. If necessary, a new employee can be created. The identity's main data is created on the basis of existing user account main data. This mechanism can be triggered after a new user account is created either manually or through synchronization.After synchronization, identities are automatically assigned to all new user accounts. If no matching identity can be found, a new identity is created using existing user main data.

Define criteria for finding employees to apply to automatic employee assignment. If a user account is linked to an employee through the current mode, the user account is given, through an internal process, the default manage level of the account definition entered in the user account's target system. You can customize user account properties depending on how the behavior of the manage level is defined.

If you run this procedure during working hours, automatic assignment of employees to user accounts takes place from that moment onwards. If you disable the procedure again later, the changes only affect user accounts added or updated after this point in time. Existing employee assignments to user accounts remain intact.

NOTE: It is not recommended to assign employees using automatic employee assignment in the case of administrative user accounts. Use Change main data to assign employees to administrative user accounts for the respective user account.

For more information about assigning employees automatically, see the One Identity Manager Target System Base Module Administration Guide.

Run the following tasks to assign employees automatically.

  • If you want employees to be assigned during the synchronization of user accounts, in the Designer, set the TargetSystem | NDO | PersonAutoFullsync configuration parameter and select the required mode.

  • If you want employees to be assigned outside synchronization, in the Designer, set the TargetSystem | NDO | PersonAutoDefault configuration parameter and select the required mode.

  • In the TargetSystem | NDO | PersonExcludeList configuration parameter, define the user accounts for which no automatic assignment to employees shall take place.

    Example:

    ADMINISTRATOR

    TIP: You can edit the value of the configuration parameter in the Exclude list for automatic employee assignment dialog.

    ClosedEditing the excluded list

  • Use the TargetSystem | NDO | PersonAutoDisabledAccounts configuration parameter to specify whether employees can be automatically assigned to locked user accounts. User accounts do not obtain an account definition.

  • Assign an account definition to the domain. Ensure that the manage level to be used is entered as the default manage level.

  • Define the search criteria for employees assigned to the domain.

NOTE:

The following applies for synchronization:

  • Automatic employee assignment takes effect if user accounts are added or updated.

The following applies outside synchronization:

  • Automatic employee assignment takes effect if user accounts are added.

NOTE:

In the default installation, after synchronizing, employees are automatically created for the user accounts. If an account definition for the domain is not known at the time of synchronization, user accounts are linked with employees. However, account definitions are not assigned. The user accounts are therefore in a Linked state.

To manage the user accounts using account definitions, assign an account definition and a manage level to these user accounts.

For more information, see Managing Notes user accounts through account definitions.

Editing search criteria for automatic employee assignment

NOTE: One Identity Manager supplies a default mapping for employee assignment. Only carry out the following steps when you want to customize the default mapping.

The criteria for employee assignments are defined for the domain. You specify which user account properties must match the employee’s properties such that the employee can be assigned to the user account. You can limit search criteria further by using format definitions.

The search criterion is written in XML notation to the Search criteria for automatic employee assignment column (AccountToPersonMatchingRule) in the NDODomain table.

Search criteria are evaluated when employees are automatically assigned to user accounts. Furthermore, you can create a suggestion list for assignments of employees to user accounts based on the search criteria and make the assignment directly.

NOTE: Object definitions for user accounts that can have search criteria applied to them are predefined. For example, if you require other objects definitions that limit a preselection of user accounts, set up the respective custom object definitions in the Designer. For more information, see the One Identity Manager Configuration Guide.

To specify criteria for employee assignment

  1. In the Manager, select the HCL Domino > Domains category.
  2. Select the domain in the result list.
  3. Select the Define search criteria for employee assignment task.
  4. Specify which user account properties must match with which employee so that the employee is linked to the user account.
    Table 15: Default search criteria for user accounts

    Apply to

    Column for employee

    Column for user account

    Notes user accounts

    First name (FirstName) AND last name (LastName)

    First name (FirstName) AND last name (LastName)

    Enabled Notes user accounts

    First name (FirstName) AND last name (LastName)

    First name (FirstName) AND last name (LastName)

  5. Save the changes.

For more information about defining search criteria, see the One Identity Manager Target System Base Module Administration Guide.

Finding employees and directly assigning them to user accounts

Based on the search criteria, you can create a suggestion list for the assignment of employees to user accounts and make the assignment directly. User accounts are grouped in different views for this.

Table 16: Manual assignment view

View

Description

Suggested assignments

This view lists all user accounts to which One Identity Manager can assign an employee. All employees are shown who were found using the search criteria and can be assigned.

Assigned user accounts

This view lists all user accounts to which an employee is assigned.

Without employee assignment

This view lists all user accounts to which no employee is assigned and for which no employee was found using the search criteria.

To apply search criteria to user accounts

  1. In the Manager, select the HCL Domino > Domains category.

  2. Select the domain in the result list.

  3. Select the Define search criteria for employee assignment task.

  4. At the bottom of the form, click Reload.

    All possible assignments based on the search criteria are found in the target system for all user accounts. The three views are updated.

TIP: By double-clicking on an entry in the view, you can view the user account and employee main data.

The assignment of employees to user accounts creates connected user accounts (Linked state). To create managed user accounts (Linked configured state), you can assign an account definition at the same time.
