Creating mapping rules for IT operating data

An account definition specifies which rules are used to form the IT operating data, for example, if the container for a user account formed using the employee's department, cost center, location, or business role and which default values will be used if no IT operating data can be found through the employee's primary roles.

The following IT operating data is used in the One Identity Manager default configuration for automatically creating user accounts for an employee in the target system and modifying them.

  • Active Directory container

  • Active Directory home server

  • Active Directory profile server

  • Active Directory terminal home server

  • Active Directory terminal profile server

  • Groups can be inherited

  • Identity

  • Privileged user account.

To create a mapping rule for IT operating data

  1. In the Manager, select the Active Directory > Basic configuration data > Account definitions > Account definitions category.

  2. Select an account definition in the result list.

  3. Select the Edit IT operating data mapping task.

    • Source: Specifies which roles to use in order to find the user account properties. You have the following options:

      • Primary department

      • Primary location

      • Primary cost center

      • Primary business roles

        NOTE: The business role can only be used if the Business Roles Module is available.

      • Empty

        If you select a role, you must specify a default value and set the Always use default value option.

    • Default value: Default value of the property for an employee's user account if the value is not determined dynamically from the IT operating data.

    • Always use default value: Specifies whether the user account property is always set with the default value. IT operating data is not determined dynamically from a role.

    • Notify when applying the default: Specifies whether an email is sent to a specific mailbox when the default value is used. The Employee - new user account with default properties created mail template is used.

      To change the mail template, in the Designer, adjust the TargetSystem | ADS | Accounts | MailTemplateDefaultValues configuration parameter.
