OIM: Reconciliation Action Rules Tab

Question

What is the difference between the Rule Conditions "One Entity Match Found" and "One Process Match Found". I cannot find any description in the documentation.
Cheers

Answer 1

One entity match found is as a result of the user matching rules evaluating to true i.e. one entity match found. During day 1 recon when there is no resource instance associated with the user (for which the app recon is being run) the process matching rules will not be met and hence oim looks for the owner matching rules (i.e. the user recon rule specified in the rule designer). If oim finds a user in the oim repository that matches the speciifed criteria as defined in the recon rule (rule designer form) it results in an entity match.
thereafter in incremental recons, the process matching rules (key fields defined in the recon field mappings tab in the provisoning process defintion form) will evaluate to true since there would be a proviisoned instance of the resource after the first recon cycle has elapsed. That results in a process match.
