4.4 Correlation Rules for the Authoritative Application

When you create an Authoritative application, the connector uses correlation rules to determine the identity to which Oracle Identity Governance must assign a resource.

Predefined Identity Correlation Rules

By default, the Fusion Apps Connector provides a simple correlation rule when you create an Authoritative application. The connector uses this correlation rule to compare the entries in Oracle Identity Governance repository and the target system repository, determine the difference between the two repositories, and apply the latest changes to Oracle Identity Governance.

Below table lists the default simple correlation rule for a Fusion Apps connector. If required, you can edit the default correlation rule or add new rules. You can create complex correlation rules also. For more information about adding or editing simple or complex correlation rules, see Updating Identity Correlation Rule in Oracle Fusion Middleware Performing Self Service Tasks with Oracle Identity Governance.

Table 4-4 Predefined Identity Correlation Rule for Fusion Apps Authoritative Application

__NAME__	Equals	User Login	No

In this identity rule:

• __NAME__ is a single-valued attribute on the target system that identifies the user account.
• User Login is the field on the OIG User form.

The Fusion Apps Authoritative Application provides a default set of situations and responses when you create an Authoritative application. These situations and responses specify the action that Oracle Identity Governance must take based on the result of a reconciliation event.

The following table lists the default situations and responses for the Fusion Apps authoritative application. If required, you can edit these default situations and responses or add new ones. For more information about adding or editing situations and responses, see Updating Situations and Responses in Oracle Fusion Middleware Performing Self Service Tasks with Oracle Identity Governance
