User provisioning

The Cloud administrator configures the Optiva users in Infor OS CE. This configuration is for PingFederate (IFS CE) authentication only.

The configuration includes the first name, last name, email address, and GUID for each user. The GUID is used for authentication.

The first time that the Optiva users sign in to Infor OS CE, their credentials are authenticated. After they navigate to Optiva, their user account is created in Optiva. At that time, the fields in the Optiva User form are filled with the account information from Infor OS CE.

The fields in the Optiva User form are read only.

Infor OS CE	Optiva User Form
First Name	First Name
Last Name	Last Name
Email Address	Email Address
First Name + Last Name. This is also called Common Name.	Description
User GUID	Windows ID

The user life cycle is controlled in Infor OS CE. Any changes to the user account, such as a change of email address, are made in Infor OS CE. The Optiva User form is synchronized with the changes the next time that the user signs into Optiva.

The Optiva user code is created using two Optiva profile attributes.

See Creating the user code in Optiva.

User codes can be deleted in Optiva only if the Windows ID is blank.
