Configuring the Data Transformations Tab

This section provides instructions for configuring the Data Transformations tab, which is available as part of the task template configuration process. For instructions on how to start the configuration process see Configuring the Task Templates.

This tab is available for the Create and Update User Templates only.

If you want to alter user account data as the workflow executes, you can use the Data Transformations tab to specify how Identity Manager will transform the data during provisioning.

For example, if you want forms or rules to generate email addresses that conform to company policy, or if you want to generate sunrise or sunset dates.

When you select the Data Transformations tab, the following page displays.

Figure 9–29 Data Transformations Tab: Create User Template

This page consists of the following sections:

• Before Approval Actions. Configure the options in this section if you want to transform user account data before sending approval requests to specified approvers.

• Before Provision Actions. Configure the options in this section if you want to transform user account data before a provisioning action.

• Before Notification Actions. Configure the options in this section if you want to transform user account data before notifications are sent to specified recipients.

You can configure the following options in each section:

• Form to Apply menus. Provide a list of the forms currently configured for your system. Use these menus to specify forms that will be used to transform data from the users accounts.

• Rule to Run menus. Provide a list of the rules currently configured for your system. Use these menus to specify rules that will be used to transform data from the users accounts.
