HCM/VDS/IDM Integration

[former_member2987]

Hi there!

I'm stuck in the middle of various groups in the project that I am on and need some guidance about Best Practices for the Integration between HCM/VDS/IDM.

When the HR group creates a new hire, they do not populate SYSUNAME since it is supposed to be provided by IDM.  However when we write the new account into the Master Identity Store from the Staging Identity store, we seem to need this attribute.

So my question is: Do we need to have HR change their processes?  What should they be putting in there?

Thanks,

Matt

Hi Matt,

actually your situation is the most common situation for HCM integration scenario. No need to panic, you just need to adapt the pass that is writing to SAP Master IDS. There is a script where you just need to uncommend and commend some lines (Think it is even described in the configuration guide or in the script itself, but I remember I have seen it documented).
