10.2 Data You Can Import from Oracle Human Resources

Table 10–1 lists the tables in the Oracle Human Resources schema. If you choose, you can import most of these attributes into Oracle Internet Directory. All of these tables are visible if the login to the Oracle Human Resources database is done with the apps account. Because attributes can be added or deleted at run time from the configuration file, the Oracle Human Resources connector dynamically creates a SQL statement that selects and retrieves only the required attributes. Table 10–2 shows some of the fields in the Oracle Human Resources user interface. These fields appear when you add or modify employee data.

10.3 Managing Synchronization Between Oracle Human Resources and Oracle Internet Directory

This section contains these topics: ■ Task 1: Configure a Directory Integration Profile for the Oracle Human Resources Connector ■ Task 2: Configure the List of Attributes to be Synchronized with Oracle Internet Directory ■ Task 3: Configure Mapping Rules for the Oracle Human Resources Connector ■ Task 4: Prepare to Synchronize from Oracle Human Resources to Oracle Internet Directory

10.3.1 Task 1: Configure a Directory Integration Profile for the Oracle Human Resources Connector

To configure the prepackaged integration profile that is installed with the Oracle Human Resources connector, refer to Chapter 7, Managing Directory Synchronization Profiles . For some of the parameters in the prepackaged integration profile, you must specify values specific to integration with the Human Resources Connector. The parameters specific to the Human Resources Connector are listed in Table 10–3 on page 10-4.

Fields in the Oracle Human Resources User Interface ATTRIBUTE NAME DESCRIPTION FORMCANVASFIELD_NAME 10-4 Oracle Fusion Middleware Administrators Guide for Oracle Directory Integration Platform Table 10–3 Attributes Specific to Oracle Human Resources Connector Integration Profile Attribute Description Profile Name odip.profile.name Unique name by which the connector is identified in the system, used as an RDN component of the DN that identifies the integration profile. The name can contain only alpha-numeric characters. This attribute is mandatory and not modifiable. The default name is OracleHRAgent. Synchronization Mode odip.profile.syncmode The direction of synchronization between Oracle Internet Directory and a connected directory. ■ IMPORT indicates importing changes from a connected directory to Oracle Internet Directory. ■ EXPORT indicates exporting changes from Oracle Internet Directory to a connected directory. The default is IMPORT. This attribute is mandatory and modifiable. Note: In Oracle Internet Directory 11g Release 1 11.1.1, only import operations for Oracle Human Resources are supported. Execution Information Agent Execution Command odip.profile.agentexecommand Connector executable name and argument list used by the directory integration server to execute the connector. This attribute is mandatory and modifiable. The default is: odihragent OracleHRAgent connect=hrdb \ login=odip.profile.condiraccount \ pass=odip.profile.condirpassword \ date=orclODIPLastSuccessfulExecutionTime \ You must set the value in the argument connect=hrdb to the connect string of the Oracle Human Resources system database. Connected Directory Account odip.profile.condiraccount Valid user account in the connected directory to be used by the connector for synchronization. For the Human Resources Agent, it is a valid user identifier in the Oracle Human Resources database. See Also: Chapter 10, Synchronizing with Oracle Human Resources for typical usage of passing it in the command-line Advanced Configuration Information odip.profile.configfile Any configuration information that you want the connector to store in Oracle Internet Directory. It is passed by the directory integration server to the connector at time of connector invocation. The information is stored as an attribute and the directory integration server does not have any knowledge of its content. The value stored in this attribute represents for Oracle Human Resources connector all attributes that need to be synchronized from Oracle Human Resources. See Also: Task 2: Configure the List of Attributes to be Synchronized with Oracle Internet Directory on page 10-5 This attribute is mandatory for the Oracle Human Resources connector. Connected Directory URL odip.profile.condirurl The host and port details of the connected directory. They must be entered in this format: host:port:sid. Interface Type odip.profile.interface The interface used for data transfer. Because it is in the form of a tagged file, it is set to TAGGED. Note: You should not modify this attribute for Oracle Human Resources profile.
