5.3-SP12 CUP-Differenciate backend system status updating imported roles

[Former Member]

Hello everyone,

We are importing roles via ERM, by the way, since we want to provide all the imported roles into CUP to three different backend systems (Developing, Q and Production) we will proceed to import those roles that have been generated into developing status at ERM and once they are being imported into CUP they will be tagged into the proper system.

The issue is that whenever the role will be updated at ERM, for example, it is transfer from Q (backend) to Production (backend), and that role was imported as "Q" into CUP, I need to differentiate into CUP this three status even though to make this changes automatic.

Is there any way to make these changes automatic? Is there any best practice?

I contemplate to distinguish the updated status at the backend system into CUP by:

-Enable

-Disable

-Enable and provision

Any idea will be very welcomed!

Thanks in advance!

Margarita.

Hi Artem!

Many thanks for your response!

If you create a Custom Field and after that you set it as Applicable to Role you would not be able to search that role niether import it from ERM to CUP by that custom field isn't it? I guess It is only for the internal data base in CUP 😃

We found another solution:

There is a job which is called "Synchronization Role Usage" that you must to execute before importing roles en ERM. What this job does is to look for into the back end (table VT_RE_RLGEN )and detect all those roles that havee been generated in all the systems (for example: dev, Q and Production). If you execute this job before importing to CUP, you could import all the valid roles in each system.

Hope it will be helpful!

Hi Margarita!

Yes, it is, you are right. I can't make a solution regarding my previous message. But I'll try to use your advice about Synchronization Role Usage.

Appreciate you for share your experience.

Hello Margarita!

You gave very interesting issue. I think on your issue and can offer only this one way. It may be not completed solution, but it can be start to resolve your issue.

You can create Custom Field for ERM process in CUP and map this field to Ztable which contains role existance.

For example,

ZROLE_EXISTANCE:

record_ID

role_name

system

Or map another standart table.

Any way you play with custom fields. Unfortunately there is no certain solution in my head how to map field and how to look a moment for update role status

Hope idea with custom fields may be a brick for whole solution.

I will thinking on this issue.

Regards,

Artem
