|
Data Source Anchor attribute
|
Select the column in the data source that will be used to find a matching user account in Active Directory and determine if the user account already exists. The value of this column in the data source is compared to the Active Directory Anchor Attribute value in Active Directory. |
|
Active Directory Anchor attribute
|
Select the attribute in the Active Directory to compare the Data Source Anchor attribute when searching for a matching user account. When a new user is created by this rule, the value of this AD attribute is set to the value of the data source anchor attribute. This guarantees the rule would find a matching user on its next run and would not create a duplicate user account. |
