Agent Configuration

This connector could manage only User objects.

Users created on Soffid will be created on EBS, in the same way disabled users on Soffid will be disabled on EBS.

The responsibilities that exist in EBS can be assigned to the users. They must be created like roles on Soffid System previously, with the same name that the responsibility has on EBS.

For example: FND_RESP | CSF | CSF_FS_PDA_REP | STANDARD.

Generic parameters

After the installation of the addon, you may create and configure agent instances.

Tasks

Authoritative

If you are checked "Authorized identity source", an automatic task to load identities from the managed system to Soffid is available, please go to:

• Start Menu > Administration > Monitoring and reporting > Scheduled tasks

And you will something like "Import authoritative data from <AGENT_NAME>".

Reconcile

To manage an automatic task to synchronize user objects from the managed system to Soffid is available, please go to:

• Start Menu > Administration > Monitoring and reporting > Scheduled tasks

And you will something like "Reconcile all accounts from <AGENT_NAME>".

Synchronization

About the synchronization of the objects, there are two possible options:

• If you are checked the generic attribute "Read Only" in the "Basics" tab, only the changes in the managed systems will be updated in Soffid. We recommend this options until the global configuration of Soffid will be tested.
• If you are not checked the generic attribute "Read Only" in the "Basics" tab, all the changes in Soffid or the managed system will be updated in the other. Note that this synchronization must be configured in the "Attribute mapping" tab correctly.
