Adding a User to the LDAP Directory

To add an iProcess user to the LDAP directory, create or modify a directory entry as follows:

1.

Assign one of the following values to the <MENUNAME> attribute: USER, MANAGER, PRODEF or ADMIN.

2.

Assign a name for this iProcess user to the <USERNAME> attribute.

3.

Define any other mappings for iProcess properties or application-specific data that you require.

The following example shows some of the attributes for an LDAP entry for an employee of the XYZ company, John Ford. The # comment for each line explains the mapping.

cn=ford	# LDAPCONF searches for entries with cn attribute
iProcess=USER		# iProcess is the <MENUNAME> attribute
uid=johnf	# uid is the <USERNAME> attribute
description=John Ford	# description is the <DESCRIPTION> attribute
email=johnf@XYZ.com	# email is an application-defined mapping
