Software Updates

This section discusses the following software updates implemented in this release of the connector.

Modifying the Primary Position of Users

You can add a position to a Siebel user through provisioning on Oracle Identity Manager. In earlier releases of the connector, the first Position value assigned to a Siebel user would become the primary position of that user. If you were to add another position to the user, then you could not designate the second position as the primary position of the user. This limitation applied to all positions assigned after the first one to the user.

In this release, you can change the primary position of a user through a provisioning operation. This is achieved through the introduction of the Primary Position lookup field in the Siebel Resource form. You use this lookup field to select the primary position from among the positions assigned to a user.

If you have configured trusted source reconciliation with the target system, then changes in the Primary Position value in Siebel are reconciled into Oracle Identity Manager.

In the "Supported Functionality" section, the Primary Position Updated function has been added.

Reconciliation Based on User Type

In this release of the connector, you can use the UserType scheduled task attribute to specify the user type for which reconciliation must be performed. This attribute is discussed in the following sections:

Partial Reconciliation

The CustomizedReconQuery parameter has been added to the IT resource definition. You can use this parameter to customize the query that the reconciliation module uses to determine the records to be retrieved from the target system. The CustomizedReconQuery parameter is explained in the following sections:

Enabling Logging

By following the instructions in the "Enabling Logging" section, you can configure the generation of log information that is specific to the target system.
