IMS_USER_BOD_EMP_IDENTIFIER

This parameter determines whether the IFS User GUID or the IFS ION Person ID is used as the employee identifier when users are created in WFM through the Sync.SecurityUserMaster BOD.

If this registry parameter is set to USER_GUID, the IFS User GUID is used as the unique employee identifier (EMP_NAME = IFS User GUID). With this option, employee information should not be imported to WFM until the user information is processed. This is the default.

Note: When using the USER_GUID option, you should use the ION processor and ION Employee Interface Template layout. The ION processor allows for changing the EMP_NAME field and provides validations to ensure that the Employee Import does not change user fields controlled by Infor OS Portal or Infor Ming.le.

If this registry parameter is set to IFS_PERSON_ID, the IFS ION Person ID is used as the unique employee identifier (EMP_NAME = IFS ION Person ID). With this option, employee information can be imported to WFM before the user information is processed.

Note: When using the IFS_PERSON_ID option, you should use the core Employee Import processor, not the ION processor. The core Employee Import processor uses EMP_NAME as the employee identifier. In addition, you must modify the IFS setting to disallow modification of the IFS Person ID in Infor OS Portal or Infor Ming.le. Modification of the employee identifier would result in employee data disruption.

See "Setting up employees" in the Infor Workforce Management Configuration Guide for Infor OS.
