Multi-valued fields in OIM user profile

Hi,
Does anyone of you have the need and find the solution for multi-valued user profile data in OIM? If so, could you please share your solutions?
Thanks,
Iris

Thanks Harrison ,
Hi U R,
The Key generation will work but quite tuff to explain the solution to you since we did something similar in SP04 but in this case might be that will be difficult approach than other simplar approches.
I guess these 2 pdf will help you (they using business content so it will be easy to replicate for you to understand).

Multi Value User Defined field on OIM user form

Hi Everyone,
I have a requirement where i need to assign multiple resources to user as per access policy. These resources should be assign by virtue of some role (custom attribute as of now). The specific requirement is that one user may have multiple roles (and hence resources) and all these values should capture in any user defined field. As the requirement contains multiple Roles so we have to create multi-value user defined field for User form to capture all these role values under single attribute. Does OIM provides any such multi-value field OOTB (lookup, drop down--any customize way we can make them multivalue)?

He's right. Multi Valued attributes on the User Profile are not available in OIM. If you want to do this, and you have a finite number of possible roles, you can create UDFs for each and map a checkbox or something to it if the user has that value. Then base your acccess policies off those.

OIM: Help understanding Multi-Valued fields

I'm having a bit of trouble passing the values of a multi-value field into an adapter and I think I have the whole structure of how this works wrong.
I have a custom RO where a user can select multiple custom defined "Roles". I want to pass the selection of these roles to an adapter for processing. I thought I could just pass the variable name selectedRoles and it would automatically concatenate them into a string delimited by "|".
is this not the case? How would I process the selections made by the user? I have the whole process working, form wise. It's just I can't seem to pass the selected roles into an adapter.
Any ideas?
When I try to map adapter variable to Process Data -> (Child Table) Roles -> Role Name I get this error:
ERROR,27 Sep 2010 12:35:08,289,[XELLERATE.DATABASE],select UD_ROLES_P_ROLENAME from UD_ROLES_P where UD_ROLES_P_KEY =
java.sql.SQLSyntaxErrorException: ORA-00936: missing expression
at oracle.jdbc.driver.SQLStateMapping.newSQLException(SQLStateMapping.java:91)
Edited by: Alex S on Sep 27, 2010 12:41 PM

Nops ! ! For child table data, your custom adapter or code would be called in every time for each value selected, so its not a string separated by a delimiter. Also its easier for OIM to manage these values individually rather than passing them as a string.
So your Process Data -> (Child Table) Roles -> Role Name mapping appears fine, but this would just pass one value at a time and then you have to call this adapter number of times based on the action insert, update or delete on child table data.

Mass updating a multi-valued field- to append the new value

I have a question on multi-valued fields:
I have store table with 5 multi-valued fields, say MLB, soccer, college FTBL, college Basketball, etc.
A store can have 4 MLBs, 2 soccer teams, and so on.
Say, there is a new MLB that came out called Mexico MLB team.
A user wanted to add this to 30 stores using a mass update. But remember the 30 stores can have totally different sets of values in the multi-valued fields.
How can I add this new value while still preserving the MLB teams values of each store record?
Does MDM not support this feature?
I am using SAP MDM SP6
An answer would be highly appreciated.
Thanks
Savi

Savi,
I assume you are defined these fields as multi-value lookup and linked to main table. In general, you can not because it will mess up and overwrite your multi-value entries for all of your 30 store records.
Here is something in MDM come in handy. It is following the same concept but design your model a little differently. If you model your multi-value fields into qualified lookup table, it will be easier and optimized to handle.
You can select all 30 records and mass-update with adding the new MLB entry into your Q-lookup table. Once you save, this mass-update action will respect all your diversity of each individual records with the new value added.
Hope this helps
If this answers your question, please kindly reward the points.

SQL2 | How to add condition on multi-value field?

Hello,
I am trying to perform a JCR query using SQL2 in CQ5.6. For one of the conditions, I wish to compare a multi-value field (E.g. cq:tags).
How would that be possible? Currenlt, I only managed to compare my query item's cq:tags to a single value (e.g. WHERE page.[cq:tags]='mynspace:mytag').
Also, is there a syntax reference for SQL2 queries? Currently I have only managed to find something tanglible here : http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/jackrabbit/trunk/jackrabbit-spi-commons/src/test/resources/or g/apache/jackrabbit/spi/commons/query/sql2/test.sql2.txt?view=markup
Best regards, thanks in advance,
K.

Hi,
Below is an example of SQL2 query based on your scenario. you can modify and use it
SELECT * FROM [nt:base] AS s WHERE ISDESCENDANTNODE([/content/geometrixx/en]) and (CONTAINS(s.[cq:tags], 'mynspace:mytag') or CONTAINS(s.[cq:tags], 'mynspace:mytagss1'))
where root node path and tags value you can change as per your need. Below is java formation
StringBuilder query = new StringBuilder();
query.append("SELECT * FROM [nt:base] AS s WHERE ISDESCENDANTNODE([")
.append(pathToYourPageArea) //for example /content/geometrixx/en
.append("]) AND (CONTAINS(s.[cq:tags],'mynspace:mytag') or CONTAINS(s.[cq:tags],'mynspace:mytagss1'))");
Query compiledQuery = queryManager.createQuery(query.toString(), Query.JCR_SQL2);
where 'mynspace:mytag' and 'mynspace:mytagss1' is an example and you can change it with variables
I hope it will help you to proceed. Let me know if you need more information.
Thanks,
Pawan

Can you sort a multi value field in descending order on a BC?

Hi
We have a date field which is a multivalue field on our Enrolment BC. The field comes from our Attendance BC. The Enrolment BC has a one to many relationship with an Attendance BC.
We would like to sort this date in descending order for use on the Enrolment BC. We tried this on the link using the associated list sort spec. However this did not work.
The only way we could get the multi value field to sort by descending order on the Enrolment BC was to add a sort spec on the Attendance BC. That is Date (DESC).
Is there any other to do this using configuration? We don't want to add a sort spec on the Attendance BC to do this. At the moment it looks we will need to use script on the Enrolment BC.
Thanks for you help,
Tim

That is a good suggestion. It looks like we already have a couple of cloned "Attendance" BC's used by workflow / interfaces so maybe I can use one of these. Thanks!

Using Calculated Field in Multi Value Field

In Siebel Application
Sales Order---> List
There is a field call "Sales Rep" which displays an "USERID" of Order Sales Team Mvg Applet.
But We want to display the Last Name and First Name (combined).We got the first and last name using calculated field (Active Full name).
When I try to get the full name, the system display the name based on the "Primary position", if I step out of the particular row and come back again
Is there any way to display the full name without step out any rows for Sales Rep field

Your description is a little confusing. For performance reasons it is always best to set the use primary join on multi value links. This means that when multi value fields are displayed in applets they always show the primary by default. If you want to display something other than the primary what is your rational behind this and why not make the record you want to display the primary?

Migrate MS Access 2007 multi-valued fields to MS SQL 2012

Hi! I do have a MS Access data base (made of MS Access 2007) which has an Attachement field. As you know Attachment DataType is a multi-valued field that replaces the Object Link Embedding (OLE) Object DataType in the new Access Database (ACCDB) file
format. At present the whole DB has reached to the max size which is 2GB. Since we want to use the data and add more data to it, I was tasked to findout ways of converting it to SQL server. I have tried to use Import and Export data x32 module to import data
from MS Access to MS SQL Express 2012. All the data were imported except the BLOBs at the Attachement filed. Could you please help me to import those BLOBs to MS SQL DB. Thx!

Hello,
About those OLE objects, please try the following article:

How To Import Into A Table with Multi-Value Fields

Hello:
I have a table with a multi-value field that contains states in which a company does business. It is multi-value because there can be more than one state. I tried to import a text tab-delimited file in which the data was arranged as follows:
Field1 Tab Field 2 Tab OR, WA, CA Tab
The "State field contained the multiple entries separated by a comma (like they appear in a query of the multi-value field), but it won't accept it. Does anyone know how to import into a multi-value field?

Move Users from one OU to other on AD based on the OIM user profile attrs

Hi All
I am currently pre-populating AD User OU attribute based on the OIM User profile Location attribute. This is working as expected.
Now when the location changes, I wanted to move the user from the current OU to a different one based on the location provided. Here I am kind of stuck.
I think I can use access policies / User triggers to get this done, but is there any other approach / additional configuration for pre-populate.
Are pre-populate only for the first time User Provisioning?
Regards
user12841694

Hi Martin
For the above requirement we have used lookups and could accomplish the task.
However, I need a minor clarification here.
I have OU dependent on Location Code & I also have Users Home Directory[on AD process form] dependent on Location Code.
How should I use the User triggers to trigger both Change HomeDir and Change OU process tasks on AD User?
I will create a dummy task with name "*Trigger Location Dependents*" and always return a "TRUE" response in the integrated adapter.
Now upon true I will generate Change HomeDir & Change OU process tasks.
I will provide Trigger Location Dependents name aganist USR_UDF_LOCATION code in the triggers lookup.
Should this work or do u have any suggestion..Please

Sun IdM: How to set a multi-value field on document.mainform via javascript

The following will set variables.variable1 to variables.variable2 when the "Script Link" component is clicked. I would like to modify
this so that el2 references a multi-valued element (e.g. a list generated by a Select Field)
<Field>
<Display class='Javascript'>
<String>
function myScript() {
el=getElement(document.mainform,"variables.variable1");
el2=getElement(document.mainform,"variables.variable2");
el.value=el2.value;
</String>
</Display>
</Field>
<Field name='Script Link'>
<Display class='Link'>
<Property name='URL'>
<String>javascript:myScript();submitCommand(document.mainform,%20'Recalculate');</String>
</Property>
</Display>
</Field>
My issue is, if variables.variable2 is a list / multivalued, i get errors trying to traverse through the "array".
How can i read and set a list element via the javascript function above? I've tried things like get(), put() , as well
as path expressions like variables.variable2[0] .
any help would be appreciated....
is there an API somewhere i can reference?

The MultiSelect field-type is a little different than the rest of the fields. If you use the applet version, then selecting/deselecting values cannot be captured by referencing the field directly in javascript.
The way to identify the selections is to use the javascript methods includes/MultiSelect.js file (IDM form submission uses the same method):
fixMultiSelectAppletBeforeSubmit( )
fixMultiSelectNonAppletBeforeSubmit( )
.. and then referencing the "<multiselect-field>_selected" form element.
So in your case, the code should look something like this:
function myScript() {
    fixMultiSelectAppletBeforeSubmit(document.mainform,"variables.variable1");
    var el1 = getElement(document.mainform,"variables.variable1_selected");
    // assign the value to variable2..
    el2 = getElement(document.mainform,"variables.variable2");
    el2.value = el1.value;
}Just make sure ":variables.variable2" is not a multi-select field, else the value set here will be reset during form submission.

Using AD connector to populate multi-valued attributes to OIM

Could anybody share the expirience of provisioning multi-valued attributes from AD to OIM 11.1.15?
What is the best approach?
Thanks.

mc2,
you can use http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23104_01/download_readme_ps4/download_readme_ps4.htm#BABDABDA and http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E21764_01/install.1111/e12002/install.htm#CIHGAEFI as a staring point. This gives you pointers to all software needed and steps to follow.
Kevin was referring in fact to BP1 11.1.1.5.1, Patch# [12748351|https://updates.oracle.com/download/12748351.html] , not PS1. PS1 is in fact 11.1.1.5.

Delimiter in Syndication Maps for Multi-Valued Fields

We are in the process of upgrading to MDM 7.1 from MDM 5.5. In one of our syndication maps we are syndicating a multi-valued hierarchy field with no particular limit as to how many values the field can hold. In the old MDM 5.5 Syndication map the xml output delimits this data with ";" (semi-colon) as in the below example.
<Field>Level 1Level 2Value 1; Level 1Level 2Value 2;Level 1Level2Value 3</Field>
In MDM 7.1 the values are separated by a "," (comma) like in the example below.
<Field>Level 1Level 2Value 1, Level 1Level 2Value 2, Level 1Level2Value 3</Field>
Is there anyway to change the delimiter in MDM 7.1 from a "," (comma) to a ";" (semi-colon) with out splitting the field?
Thanks!
Sincerely,
Courtney

Hi Brewer,
Is there anyway to change the delimiter in MDM 7.1 from a "," (comma) to a ";" (semi-colon) with out splitting the field?
Yes, for e.g in in your syndication map at source item lookup field display as follows
Country
|___ Code
|___ Name
just map country to destination item instead of using Code or Name, multi vaule will display with ; operator
In one of our syndication maps we are syndicating a multi-valued hierarchy field with no particular limit as to how many values the field can hold.
if you want to set length of field you require to set properties at destination item as follows :
Fixed Column Width : the specific with destination item
Max Item Length : Maximum length allowed for the item
Hope Above mention point will resolved your problem if not revert back
Thanks,
