Default Configuration
The HR system is the default authoritative source for most identity information. As a result, the HR system drives most data exchanges, that is, most of the identity data is created or modified in the HR system and is published to the Workforce Tree repository where other systems can subscribe to it.
For some identity data, systems other than the HR system are the default authoritative sources. E-mail address attribute changes, for example, are generated and owned by the messaging system, and some data, such as the home phone and pager number attribute, may be updated by the users themselves through Novell eGuide. The data that is created or modified in these other systems is also published to the Workforce Tree where it can be consumed by other applications.
The Nsure Resources default configuration includes a basic provisioning process in which Nsure Resources automatically creates, modifies, and disables user accounts in all required systems immediately, in response to a single action in the HR system. Data modification in the HR system sets processes in motion that trigger the automatic creation or modification of the digital identity of an individual in all appropriate systems in the lab environment. The processes that are initiated, the tasks that are performed in each process and the order in which the processes are performed are specified by the preconfigured design of Nsure Resources.
