Appendix: Creating a JD Edwards EnterpriseOne LDAP Configuration for OID

This appendix is a supplement to the “Enabling LDAP Support in Oracle JD Edwards EnterpriseOne” chapter in this guide. Use the settings detailed in this appendix as a reference when creating an LDAP configuration for Oracle Internet Directory (OID).

This appendix provides an overview of the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne LDAP configuration for OID and describes how to:

• Add OID to the list of LDAP server types.

• Create an LDAP configuration for OID.

• Configure LDAP server settings for OID.

• Configure LDAP to JD Edwards EnterpriseOne enterprise server mappings for OID.

Understanding JD Edwards EnterpriseOne LDAP Configuration for OID

OID is an LDAP compliant directory service. You can configure JD Edwards EnterpriseOne to use OID as the LDAP server. This enables administrators to use the directory service to manage user information such as user IDs, passwords, and user-role relationships.

Important! This section does not contain all of the steps for creating an LDAP configuration, only specific values that are required for setting up an LDAP configuration for OID.

When you configure OID as the LDAP server, the settings that you configure depend on how you plan to use OID, which can include these scenarios:

• Managing only user IDs and passwords.

• Managing user-role relationships in addition to user IDs and passwords.

• Using Secure Socket Layer (SSL).

• Using the User Profile Self-Service application (P0092SS).

Adding OID to the List of LDAP Server Types

Before you can create an LDAP configuration for OID, you must manually add OID as an option in the LDAP Server Type field of the LDAP Server Configuration Workbench program (P95928). To do so, use the User Defined Code program (P0004A) to add a UDC for OID.

Access the Work With User Defined Codes form. In JD Edwards Solution Explorer, enter UDC in the Fast Path.

1. Complete these fields and click Find:

   Field	Value
   Product Code	95
   User Defined Codes	LS

2. Click Add.

3. On the User Defined Codes form, scroll to the last empty row of the detail area.

   Important! Be sure to add the new code on the last detail row so that you do not inadvertently overwrite a blank code, which might appear in the first detail row. A blank code might have only a period in the Description field.

4. Complete these fields and click OK:

   Field	Value
   Codes	OID
   Description 1	Oracle Internet Directory
