What is federating a system?

Federating a system means associating two Infor Lawson systems (for example, Infor Lawson System Foundation and Infor Landmark Technology) so that users (actors or people resources), roles (which include security classes), and groups can be "seen" by either system.

The following diagrams illustrate the problem that federating solves.

Before federation users/actors who use content on both Infor Lawson platforms must log in to each separately

After a system has been federated, use Infor Security Services (ISS) to add or update users.
