Infor Ming.le 12.x ADFS (claims-based authentication)

This procedure applies to Infor Smart Office 10.2.1.xx HF14 and later.

Claims-based authentication gives the authenticated user a security token signed by a trusted issuer. Instead of sending credentials to the Smart Office server or the application servers, the user sends a signed security token. The user is considered authenticated whenever a valid security token is presented. An Identity Provider is typically Active Directory Federated Service (ADFS).

Infor Ming.le 12.x or later must be installed and configured.

  1. Log in to Infor Smart Office as an administrator.
  2. Go to the Navigator > Administration tools > Settings Editor.
  3. Click the Mango.Ming.le tab.
