HCM / IDM Questions

[former_member2987]

Couple of HCM related questions for all of you:

1. Is it possible to alter the HCM feed? Specifically, we'd want to bring in some custom attributes.

2. Is there a way to do any kind of event based provisioning as soon as a new HCM record is created? This does not necessarily need to use the HCM/IDM framework (flat file/db table export?). We have a use case where certain types of users need to be submitted to IDM workflow immediately and cannot wait for the Extract report to run.

Thanks!

When you say alter the HCM feed are you talking about the attributes in the mapping on the SAP side? If so, then yes it is possible to add custom attributes. We added them to the data set used by the query used by the extract program.

If you do have a conversation, can you please update the thread afterwards? It's a good question...

Matt,

I'll be in the office for the rest of the day today, I'll be WFH on Monday, so I can send you my BB number if you can't call until next week.
