Oracle Identity Manager automates access rights management, security, and provisioning of IT resources. Oracle Identity Manager connectors are used to integrate Oracle Identity Manager with third-party applications. This guide discusses the procedure to deploy the connector that is used to integrate Oracle Identity Manager with SAP CUA.
Note:
Oracle Identity Manager connectors were referred to as resource adapters prior to the acquisition of Thor Technologies by Oracle.This chapter contains the following sections:
Note:
In this guide, the term Oracle Identity Manager server refers to the computer on which Oracle Identity Manager is installed.At some places in this guide, SAP CUA has been referred to as the target system.
Reconciliation involves duplicating in Oracle Identity Manager the creation of and modifications to user accounts on the target system. It is an automated process initiated by a scheduled task that you configure.
See Also:
The "Deployment Configurations of Oracle Identity Manager" section in Oracle Identity Manager Connector Concepts Guide for conceptual information about reconciliation configurationsBased on the type of data reconciled from the target system, reconciliation can be divided into the following types:
The following fields of SAP CUA are reconciled:
Lookup.SAP.CUA.Roles
Lookup.SAP.CUA.TimeZone
Lookup.SAP.CUA.LangComm
Lookup.SAP.CUA.UserTitle
Lookup.SAP.CUA.DecimalNotation
Lookup.SAP.CUA.DateFormat
Lookup.SAP.CUA.UserGroups
Lookup.SAP.CUA.CommType
Lookup.SAP.CUA. ChildSystem
Lookup.SAP.CUA.Profiles
The following lookup fields are not reconciled:
Lookup.SAP.CUA.UserType
Lookup.SAP.CUA.LockUser
Lookup.SAP.CUA.RoleProfileOption
This section discusses elements that are specific to user reconciliation between SAP CUA and Oracle Identity Manager.
The following fields are reconciled:
Extension
Telephone
Time Zone
Lang Logon
User Group
Department
Lang Comm
Last Name
First Name
User Title
User ID
Start Menu
User Type
Alias
Lock User
Communication Type
Code
Building

Room No
Function
Decimal Notation
Date Format
Email Address
Fax Number
User Profile
User Profile
System Name
User Role
User Role
System Name
StartDate
EndDate
If trusted source reconciliation is implemented, then the following fields are reconciled:
User ID
FirstName
LastName
Organization
Employee Type
User Type
Provisioning involves creating or modifying a user's account on the target system through Oracle Identity Manager. You use the Oracle Identity Manager Administrative and User Console to perform provisioning operations.
See Also:
The "Deployment Configurations of Oracle Identity Manager" section in Oracle Identity Manager Connector Concepts Guide for conceptual information about provisioningFor this target system, the following fields are provisioned:
User ID
Password
Last Name
User Group
The following fields are mandatory for the Create User provisioning function to work:
Note:
To ensure that provisioning is completed successfully, you must specify either the role or profile in the field provided in the process form and then specify whether it is a role or profile. This is to activate the user on the SAP CUA master system.User Role or Profile
Role or Profile Option

Table 1-1 Files and Directories on the Installation Media
Note:
The files in thetest
directory are used only to run tests on the connector.You might have a deployment of an earlier release of the connector. While deploying the latest release, you might want to know the release number of the earlier release. To determine the release number of the connector that has already been deployed:
In a temporary directory, extract the contents of the following JAR file:
OIM_HOME/xellerate/JavaTasks/xliSAPCUA.jar
Open the manifest.mf
file in a text editor. The manifest.mf
file is one of the files bundled inside the xliSAPCUA.jar
file.
In the manifest.mf
file, the release number of the connector is displayed as the value of the Version property.
