1.1.3.4 Ad Hoc Linking

If the reconciliation engine is not able to determine the owner based on the matching rules, then you can manually link an account to a user by using Oracle Identity Manager Advanced Administration. Subsequent modifications to the account is automatically linked to that account. Ad hoc linking is supported for user and account events. If the reconciliation engine is not able to determine the owner based on the matching rules, then you can manually link a user or account event to a user.

The advanced search takes multiple arguments and lets you fine-tune the list of events. To perform an advanced search for events:

1. In the left pane of the Reconciliation section, click Advanced Search. The Search:

Events page is displayed. 2. Select any one of the following options: ■ All: On selecting this option, the search is performed with the AND condition. This means that the search operation is successful only when all the search criteria specified are matched. ■ Any: On selecting this option, the search is performed with the OR condition. This means that the search operation is successful when any search criterion specified is matched. 3. In the Event ID field, enter the event ID that you want to search. You can use wildcard characters in your search criteria. Select a search condition in the list adjacent to the Event ID field. 4. Specify search arguments in the other fields displayed in the Search: Events page. Table 1 1 lists the fields in the Search: events page. Note: In simple search, you cannot perform the search by event dates. Note: Simple Search is paginated, meaning it only displays search results 64 rows at a time. This is to improve performance. Scrolling down past the 64th row in the UI triggers another page fetched from the database and so on for every 64 rows beyond that.
