Unlock Account

Unlock account

This activity is a core activity of the Unlock My Account workflow. It allows users to unlock their accounts using the Self-Service site.

You do not need to configure any settings for this activity.

Enable Account

Use this activity to enable users’ disabled accounts. You can use the activity in different workflows. It is recommended to place this activity after authentication activities in a workflow.

 NOTE: If you want to enable only the user accounts disabled through force enrollment, in the activity settings, select Enable user accounts disabled by force enrollment check box.

For example, to enable users with disabled accounts to reset passwords and enable their accounts, you can use the Enable account activity in the Forgot My Password workflow:

  1. Authenticate with Q&A profile (random questions).
  2. Enable account.
  3. Reset password in Active Directory.
  4. Restart workflow if error occurs.
  5. Email user if workflow succeeds.
  6. Email user if workflow fails.

Force User to Change Password at Next Logon

Force user to change password at next logon

Use this activity to require users to change their passwords at next logon. For example, you can use this activity in the Forgot My Password workflow to force users to change passwords at the next logon, after the password has been reset by Password Manager.

It is recommended to place this activity after the Reset password in Active Directory or Change password in Active Directory activities in a workflow.

Subscribe to Notifications

Subscribe to notifications

This activity is a core activity of the My Notifications workflow. It allows users to select on the Self-Service site the events they want to be notified about, such as when the password is changed or account is unlocked.

The event list available on the Self-Service site depends on the settings you configure in the user notification activities included in the Self-Service workflows. Each user notification activity (Email user if workflow succeeds and Email user if workflow fails) has the settings that allow you to subscribe users to this notification or to allow users to choose whether they want to receive this notification or not.

If user notifications activities are not included in a workflow, users will not receive any email notifications about this workflow.

A notification text depends on the workflow in which the notification activity is used. For example, if the Email user if workflow succeeds activity is used in the Forgot My Password workflow, after successfully performing this task on the Self-Service site the user will be notified that his password has been reset. By default, the Email user if workflow succeeds and Email user if workflow fails activities are included in each self-service workflow and offer notification templates.

For more information on configuring user notification activities, see Notification Activities.

 IMPORTANT: If a user notification activity is included in a Helpdesk workflow, the user will receive the corresponding notification. You cannot change user subscription settings of notifications about helpdesk workflows.
