Synchronizing with Oracle Human Resources 10-5

10.3.2 Task 2: Configure the List of Attributes to be Synchronized with Oracle Internet Directory

The default Oracle Human Resources profile provides a default list of attributes to be synchronized from Oracle Human Resources to Oracle Internet Directory. You can customize this list, adding attributes to it or removing attributes from it. The default attribute list is stored in the orclodipAgentConfigInfo attribute as part of the integration profile.The configuration information is also available in the file oraclehragent.cfg.master that is located under the ORACLE_HOMEldapodiconf directory. Table 10–4 describes columns in the default list of Oracle Human Resources attributes. Mapping Information Mapping Rules odip.profile.mapfile Attribute for storing the mapping rules. Store the mapping rules in a file by using Oracle Enterprise Manager Fusion Middleware Control. See Chapter 7, Managing Directory Synchronization Profiles for information on using Oracle Enterprise Manager Fusion Middleware Control. This attribute is mandatory for Oracle Human Resources and is modifiable. See Also: ■ Mapping rules and formats on page 5-2 ■ Configuring Mapping Rules on page 6-3 Connected Directory Matching Filter odip.profile.condirfilter This is not used in Oracle Human Resources connectivity. OID Matching Filter odip.profile.oidfilter This attribute names an LDAP filter that is used to search for a target entry in Oracle Internet Directory. The Oracle Directory Integration Platform uses this filter to find out what kind of LDAP operation it needs to do to synchronize. It is of the form employeenumber=. It is optional and modifiable. Status Information OID Last Applied Change Number odip.profile.lastchgnum This attribute, standard for all export profiles, does not apply to Oracle Human Resources synchronization. Note: Do not modify the oraclehragent.cfg.master file; it serves as a backup.

10.3.2.1 Modifying Additional Oracle Human Resources Attributes for Synchronization

To include additional Oracle Human Resources attributes for synchronization, follow these steps: 1. Copy the oraclehragent.cfg.master file and name it anything other than Agent_ Name.cfg. This is because the Oracle Directory Integration Platform generates a configuration file with that name, using it to pass the configuration information to the Oracle Human Resources agent at run time. 2. Include an additional Oracle Human Resources attribute for synchronization by adding a record to this file. To do this, you need this information: FORMAT The column data type of this attribute ASCII, NUMBER, DATE. MAP Indicator of whether to extract this attribute from Oracle Human Resources. A value of Y indicates that it will be extracted, and a value of N indicates that it will not be. Table 10–4 Cont.
