Bhold-flowing user's Manager attribute to BHOLD core

Hi,
I have a requirement to flow all user's manager value into bhold core.This is for setting up attribute based attestation.The problem with manager is "it is a reference type attribute in both AD and metaverse", so i need to create a reference attribute
in bhold core for the flows to happen from metaverse to bhold .
But there is no reference attribute type in bhold.Please can anybody suggest how to create a reference attribute in bhold.
Regards
Shakti

Hello Shakti,
Attestation in BHOLD is either "Application-based", "Role-based" (not Manager-based) or "File-based". If the Manager in your case is defined on OU-Level you can user Role-based Attestation.
As per BHOLD Definition for Role-based Attestation:
- the Steward's role must be available in the OU branch. that means in the specific OU or in one of the OUs above.  
- there must be a Steward in the OU to be attested and must be linked to the Steward's role.
In case this does not meet your environment, you can run File-based Attestation. The Definition file includes the Steward's Name seperated by the user Name to be attested. This works in any case. The file you need can then be produced by FIM (CSV-File Export
MA).
Hope this helps.

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you want to get the user’s manager, department and title.
    We can use the GetUserProfileByName operation of the SPServices to achieve it, you can download it in the
    CodePlex.
    You can first retrieve the user of the People Picker control.
    http://sympmarc.com/2012/04/22/working-with-sharepoint-people-pickers-with-jquery-a-new-function-called-findpeoplepicker/
    http://sharepoint.stackexchange.com/questions/80839/unable-to-get-user-name-from-the-people-picker-control-using-jquery
    Then we can retrieve the user’s information using the SPServices.
    I have made a simple code demo to retrieve the user’s manager, department and title as below, you can have a look at it.
    <script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.10.2.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript" src="http://sp/Shared Documents/jquery.SPServices-2014.01.min.js"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript">
    // When the body is loaded, the onload event handler executes each function whose name is contained in this array.
    $(function(){
    var managerName;
    var title;
    var department;
    $().SPServices({
    operation: "GetUserProfileByName",
    async: false,
    AccountName: $().SPServices.SPGetCurrentUser(),
    completefunc: function (xData, Status) {
    console.log($(xData.responseXML).find("PropertyData").parent().html);
    $(xData.responseXML).find("PropertyData > Name:contains('Manager')").each(function() {
    managerName = $(this).parent().find("Values").text();
    //alert("the manager is"+managerName);
    $(xData.responseXML).find("PropertyData > Name:contains('Title'):eq(0)").each(function() {
    title = $(this).parent().find("Values").text();
    //alert("the Title is"+title);
    $(xData.responseXML).find("PropertyData > Name:contains('Department')").each(function() {
    department = $(this).parent().find("Values").text();
    //alert("the Department is"+department);
    var obj1=managerName+title+department;

  • Importing manager attribute in FIM

    Experts,
    I have two tables:-
    users:-
    employeeid:firstname:lastname:deptnumber
    department
    deptnumber:deptname:manager
    A SQL view combines this two tables and I am importing data through SQL MA and inbound synch rule.
    All attributes are coming except manager. I have choose manager as 'Reference' in SQL MA. I am sure employee exists.
    All attributes are getting imported except manager.
    Thanks,
    Mann

    Hello,
    What is the format of 'manager' in the SQL table 'department'? It's the same that 'employeeid' in the SQl table 'users'?
    'Manager' are imported in the CS of SQL and not in MV? Or it's not present in the CS?
    And your flow 'manager' is for 'department' object, and not for 'user' object: With you current configuration, you cant' flow manager on user object through inbound synch rule.

  • Manager attribute from AD and to AD

    Hello Experts,
    I am working with AD-IDM implementation.
    I am facing two problems here:
    1. Issue in getting Manager attribute of the users from HR system onto IDM via initial load and
    2. Issue in assigning the Manager attribute to a user from IDM while creating a new user on AD
    In case 1, I am simply trying to pass the manager in HR system to attribute MX_MANAGER as
    in pass 'to identity store' ->  MX_MANAGER = %manager%
    For this, the IDM throws an error as "Entry reference value is not numeric when storing attribute MX_MANAGER=xyz"
    In case 2, while creating a new identity assigning the AD privilege, I am trying to assign the manager to that new AD user. But it fails to create a user on AD as the manager attribute value comes with an error "CONSTRAINT_ATT_TYPE"
    I know that the manager value on AD resides in DN format, but not sure how to resolve that to use the same for purposes.
    Could you please suggest on the above issues.
    FYKI - Version: IDM 7.2
    Many thanks in advance!
    Naveen

    Hi Naveen,
    In order to start writing scripts, you should know what are the tables/views to query for getting the required information.
    I strongly recommend you to go through the the blog IDM SQL Basics #1: Queries against the Identity Store by  Per Krabsetsve
    Anyways I am writing down the sample scripts for your reference, which you can make use of.
    Let me know for any further queries.
    1. For getting the MSKEY of the user from MSKEYVALUE
    // Main function: z_sap_getMskeyForMskeyvalue
    function z_sap_getMskeyForMskeyvalue(Par)
      var msKey = "";
      msKey = "select distinct mcMSKEY from idmv_entry_simple where mcMSKEYVALUE='"+Par+"'";
      msKey = uSelect(msKey);
      return msKey;
    2.  For gettting the DN of the Manager with MSKey as the input to the script.
    // Main function: z_sap_getManagerADDN
    function z_sap_getManagerADDN(Par)
       var msKey = Par;
      var managerADDN = "";
      managerADDN = "select avalue from idmv_value_basic where MSKEY="+Par+" and AttrName='ACCOUNTIDECAD'";
      // in the above select query ACCOUNTIDECAD is my AD account attribute. In your case it is ACCOUNT<AD Rep Name>
      managerADDN = uSelect(managerADDN);
      return managerADDN;
    All the best !!

  • WHATS THE FLOW OF MATERIAL MANAGMENT IF YOU MAKE A PURACHASE ORDER ?

    WHATS THE FLOW OF MATERIAL MANAGMENT IF YOU MAKE A PURACHASE ORDER ? PLEASE EXPLAIN IN DETAIL.
    BEST REGARDS,
    RYAN

    Hi Ryan,
    The t procurement cycle for a material consists of the following stages:
    1. Determination of Requirements
    Materials requirements are identified either in the user departments or via materials planning and control.
    (This can cover both MRP proper and the demand-based approach to inventory control. The regular checking of stock levels of materials defined by master records,
    use of the order-point method, and forecasting on the basis of past usage are important aspects of the latter.)
    You can enter purchase requisitions yourself, or they can be generated automatically by the materials planning and control system.
    2. Source Determination
    The Purchasing component helps you identify potential sources of supply based on past orders and existing longer-term purchase agreements.
    This speeds the process of creating requests for quotation (RFQs), which can be sent to vendors electronically via SAP EDI, if desired.
    3. Vendor Selection and Comparison of Quotations
    The system is capable of simulating pricing scenarios, allowing you to compare a number of different quotations. Rejection letters can be sent automatically.
    4. Purchase Order Processing
    The Purchasing system adopts information from the requisition and the quotation to help you create a purchase order. As with purchase requisitions,
    you can generate Pos yourself or have the system generate them automatically. Vendor scheduling agreements and contracts
    (in the SAP System, types of longer-term purchase agreement) are also supported.
    5. Purchase Order Follow-Up
    The system checks the reminder periods you have specified and - if necessary - automatically prints reminders or expediters at the predefined intervals.
    It also provides you with an up-to-date status of all purchase requisitions, quotations, and purchase orders.
    Hope this is useful for u..

  • Reconciliation of User's Manager Field using GTC

    Hi,
    Could anyone suggest how to manage the reconciliation of Manager field of users using GTC.
    As for the first trusted reconciliation of users , the manager value coming from the source would not exist in OIM, so if we map the manager field of source with manager field in OIM, it would fail, as the manager user doesn't yet exist in OIM. How can we implement this.
    Regards

    Hi Rajiv,
    Thanks for your response.
    We have configured our GTC with the manager attribute mapped as well, in the sense, there are race conditions, manager user might not exist while OIM is reconciling and trying to create a user.
    So, the recon event comes as Data Validation Failed. But eventually the users will be created and this Retry Failed Recon Events ST, which is OOTB will slowly resolve all the users as and when the users are created in OIM.
    What happening is :- when i am running this Retry Failed Recon Events ST (as there are lots of failed recon events), OIM is crashing after every half n hour.
    What i could see in logs is below:- Is this somehow related to CPU usage and Memory???

  • Get Manager attribute from AD 2003

    Guys, Is there anyway to retrieve the value of "manager" attribute for a specific user defined on Active directory (windows 2003), any example will be higly appreciated as i am trapped. Thank u

    If you know the user name you could simply just retrieve the "manager" attribute. For example:.....
    String userName = "CN=Albert Einstein,OU=Research,DC=antipodes,DC=com";
    // Create the initial directory context
    LdapContext ctx = new InitialLdapContext(env,null);
    // Retrieve all attributes of the requested object
    Attributes attrs = ctx.getAttributes(userName);
    // Print out some of the attributes
    System.out.println("DN: " + attrs.get("distinguishedName").get());
    System.out.println("Manager: " + attrs.get("manager").get());
    .....Alternatively if you are performing a search, again just specify the manager attribute in the list of attributes to be returned. ....
    //Specify the attributes to return
    String returnedAtts[]={"sn","givenName","mail","manager"};
    searchCtls.setReturningAttributes(returnedAtts);
    //Specify the search scope
    searchCtls.setSearchScope(SearchControls.SUBTREE_SCOPE);
    //specify the LDAP search filter
    String searchFilter = "(&(objectClass=user)(mail=*))";
    //Specify the Base for the search
    String searchBase = "DC=Antipodes,DC=Com";
    ....Note the corresponding backlink to the manager attribute is the directReports attribute.

    Thanks Nicke, I should have tried harder to get you to come and work with me in Oslo earlier this year ;)
    That thread does point on the Profile managment, and redirection of %appdata% and %localappdata% . Those to folders are not redirected. But when i run Procmon, i can see that a working user creates the c:\users\<username>\appdata\local\temp but non
    working does not even try.Non working users also does not query the registry as much as working. Ofcourse this all work in my lab so the settings should be sound. but i cannot find the smoking environment variable or setting that causes it.

  • Using dnconvert() on manager attribute in a mapping file for AD-OID synch

    I was just curious - has anyone tried using dnconvert() on the manager attribute for Active Directory - OID synchronization?
    Example: manager: : :person:manager: :inetorgperson:dnconvert(manager)
    Is that the way to bring over who an employee reports to (in our case, for use in Oracle Portal) or is there a better solution?

    Surely, we're not the only ones trying to map employees' Managers from AD to OID? :-)

    Is there any way to retrieve current logged-in user's Manager name in the console application.
    As I don't have access to the server where SharePoint 2010 is installed so I wanted to access through client object model.

    Unfortunately, you can't use CSOM to do this in SharePoint 2010 (you can in SharePoint 2013!), but you CAN use the User Profile Service .asmx web service to accomplish this. You need to call the
    GetUserProfileByName method exposed
    in the http://<yourServerName>/_vti_bin/UserProfileService.asmx web service. Pass in the user name for the current user and Manager will be one of the properties that is returned.
    Here is a link to a blog post with example code.
