Employee Central Integration with Microsoft Active Directory

Employees in an organization use Active directory to access the systems in the organization’s network. For e.g. when a user logs into a computer that is part of the Microsoft Windows domain, active directory checks the submitted password and determines whether a user is allowed to login to the network. SuccessFactors Employee Central now has a packaged integration to connect with Microsoft Active Directory.

The product manager for this integration is yamini.polisetty
