Account Store Settings |
|---|
Setting | Description |
General Settings |
IT Environment Type | Allows you to specify the type of environment in which you are creating the account store. |
Account Store Type | Allows you to specify the type of account store you are creating. |
Option 1 Specify an Account Proxy | Allows you to change the credentials for the account that EmpowerID uses to connect to and manage the account store. |
Option 2 Select a Vaulted Credential as Account Proxy | Allows you to use a credential that you have vaulted in EmpowerID as the account that EmpowerID uses to connect to and manage the account store. |
Inventoried Directory Server | Allows you to select a connected server as the directory server for the account store. |
Is Remote (Cloud Gateway Connection Required) | This setting appears for account stores with local directories, such as Active Directory, LDAP, SAP, etc. When enabled, this tells EmpowerID to use the Cloud Gateway Connection for that account store. The Cloud Gateway Connection must be installed on an on-premise machine. For installation information, please see Installing the EmpowerID Cloud Gateway Client. |
Is Visible in IAM Shop | Specifies whether the account store can be used to filter objects relative to the account store, such as groups, to users searching for resources in the IAM Shop. |
Authentication and Password Settings |
Use for Authentication | Specifies whether user credentials in the external system can be used to authenticate to EmpowerID. |
Allow Search for User Name in Authentication | This setting works in conjunction with pass-through authentication to allow users to log in without specifying a domain name. When this is enabled, EmpowerID first checks to see if the username entered exists within its Identity Warehouse and if so attempts to authenticate as that user. If a matching logon name exists but the login fails, EmpowerID then searches through all Accounts Stores where simple username search is enabled to find the correct username and password combination. |
Allow Password Sync | Enables or disables the synchronization of password changes to user accounts in the domain based on password changes for the owning person object or another account owned by the person. This setting does not prevent password changes by users running the reset user account password workflows. |
Queue Password Changes | Specifies whether EmpowerID sends password changes to the Account Password Reset Inbox for batch processing. |
Password Manager Policy for Accounts without Person | Specifies the Password Manager Policy to be used for user accounts not joined to an EmpowerID Person. |
Provisioning Settings |
Allow Person Provisioning (Joiner Source) | Specifies whether EmpowerID Persons can be provisioned from user accounts in the account store. |
Allow Attribute Flow | Specifies whether attribute changes should flow between EmpowerID and the account store. |
Allow Provisioning (By RET) | Allows or disallows the Resource Entitlement (RET) Inbox process to auto-provision accounts for this domain for users who receive RET policy-assigned user accounts but have not yet had them provisioned. |
Allow Deprovisioning (By RET) | Allows or disallows the Resource Entitlement Inbox process to auto de-provision accounts for this domain for users who still have RET policy-assigned user accounts, but no longer receive a policy that grants them a user account in the domain. De-provisioning only occurs if the de-provision action on the Resource Entitlement policy is set to De-Provision. |
Max Accounts per Person | This specifies the maximum number of user accounts from this domain that an EmpowerID Person can have linked to them. This prevents the possibility of a runaway error caused by a wrongly configured Join rule. It is recommended that this value be set to 1 unless users will have more than 1 account and you wish them to be joined to the same person. |
Business Role Settings |
Allow Business Role and Location Re-Evaluation | Specifies whether Business Role and Location re-evaluation should occur for the account store |
Business Role and Location Re-Evaluation Order | Specifies the order of the account store for re-evaluating Business Roles and locations |
Inventory Auto Provision OUs as IT System Locations | Specifies whether EmpowerID should automatically provision external OUs as IT System locations |
Inventory Auto Provision External Roles as Business Roles | Specifies whether EmpowerID should provision Business roles for external account store roles |
Default Person Business Role | Specifies the default EmpowerID Business Role to be assigned to each EmpowerID Person provisioned from the user accounts in the account store. |
Default Person Location (leave blank to use account container) | Specifies the default EmpowerID Location to be assigned to each EmpowerID Person provisioned from the user accounts in the account store. |
Group Settings |
Allow Account Creation on Membership Request | Specifies whether EmpowerID creates user accounts in the account store when an EmpowerID Person without one requests membership within a group belonging to the account store. |
Recertify External Group Membership Additions as Detected | Specifies whether detected additions to group memberships should trigger recertification. |
SetGroup of Groups to Monitor for Real-Time Recertification | Specifies the SetGroup to be used for monitoring group membership changes. |
Directory Clean Up Enabled |
Directory Clean Up Enabled | Specifies whether the SubmitAccountTermination permanent workflow should claim the account store for processing account terminations. When enabled, accounts in the account store that meet the qualifications to be marked for deletion are moved into a special OU within the external directory, disabled and finally deleted after going through an automated approval process. This process involves setting a number of system settings in EmpowerID and requires multiple approvals by designated personnel before an account is finally removed from the account store. |
Report Only Mode (No Changes) | When enabled, a report of what the Directory Clean Up process would do is written to the log. The process itself is ignored and all accounts are set to Termination Pending. This setting only appears when Directory Clean Up Enabled is selected. |
Special Use Settings |
Automatically Join Account to a Person on Inventory (Skip Account Inbox) | Specifies whether EmpowerID should attempt to join user accounts in the account store to an existing EmpowerID Person during the inventory process. When enabled, the Account Inbox is bypassed. |
Automatically Create a Person on Inventory (Skip Account Inbox) | Specifies whether EmpowerID should create new EmpowerID Persons from the user accounts discovered in the account store during the inventory process. When enabled, the Account Inbox is bypassed. |
Queue Password Changes on Failure | Specifies whether EmpowerID should send password changes to the Account Password Reset Inbox only when the change fails. |
