Synchronizing Single Sign-On or LDAP User Profile Information with Oracle Billing Insight


You must synchronize key user information between the external identity management system (the system of record for users) and Oracle Billing Insight. You can synchronize in real-time using a set of Web Services or in batch using Command Center jobs.

The LoadExternalB2B, LoadExternalB2C, and LoadExternalCSR Command Center jobs synchronize users into Oracle Billing Insight using an input file. For details on configuring and running the load jobs appropriate for your implementation, see Administration Guide for Oracle Billing Insight.

Table 2 shows the required and optional user information when synchronizing an external identity system with Oracle Billing Insight.
