The Account Inbox is the process by which EmpowerID determines whether the user accounts discovered during the inventory of an external system are:
- Ignored
- Joined to an existing EmpowerID Person
- Used to provision new EmpowerID Persons
The criteria for this process is defined by four database scalar functions that can be customized as needed. These functions are as followsdescribed below.

You can edit these filters, as well as the default logic for the Join and Provision Rules that uses to determine whether inventoried accounts meet the criteria for being joined to existing EmpowerID Persons or used to provision new EmpowerID Persons directly from the EmpowerID Web application. For the details, see Reviewing Join and Provision Rules. |
AccountInboxing_GetJoinFilter
This function specifies which accounts can be joined to People. To be joined, accounts must meet the criteria specified by the function AS WELL AS the filter specified in the AccountInboxing_GetJoinAndProvisionFilter function. The default logic for this function states that all inventoried accounts are eligible for joining. If the value of AllowJoin was set to 0, no accounts would be eligible.

DECLARE @JoinFilter NVARCHAR(MAX) = N'A.AllowJoin = 1' AND A.AccountStoreID = 1002 |
AccountInboxing_GetProvisionFilter
This function specifies the accounts from which Persons can be provisioned. To be provisioned, accounts must meet the criteria specified the function AS WELL AS the filter specified in the AccountInboxing_GetJoinAndProvisionFilter function. The default logic for this function states that Persons can be provisioned from an accounts store when AllowPersonProvisioning is set to true on the account store from which the account originates.

DECLARE @ProvisionFilter NVARCHAR(MAX) =
N'A.AllowProvision = 1 AND EXISTS(SELECT 1 FROM AccountStore S WHERE A.AccountStoreID = S.AccountStoreID AND S.AllowPersonProvisioning = 1 AND A.Department = N''Sales'')' |
AccountInboxing_GetJoinAndProvisionFilter
This function specifies logic that the above two functions, AccountInboxing_GetJoinFilter and AccountInboxing_GetProvisionFilter, could have in common. This prevents duplicating this logic in the other two functions. To be joined or used to provision new Persons, accounts must meet the criteria specified by the function AS WELL AS the filters specified in the AccountInboxing_GetJoinFilter function (for joining) and the AccountInboxing_GetProvisionFilter function (for provisioning). The default logic for this function ensures that for joining or provisioning, an account must meet the following criteria:
...
| Code Block | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|

DECLARE @JoinAndProvisionFilter NVARCHAR(MAX) =
N'A.PersonID IS NULL AND A.Disabled = 0 AND A.Deleted = 0 AND A.AccountTypeID <> 2 AND A.AccountUsageTypeID = 1
AND LEN(A.FirstName) > 0 AND LEN(A.LastName) > 0 AND A.EmployeeType = ''Contractor'' |
AccountInboxing_GetJoinLogic
This function specifies whether an account can be joined to a person based on the presence of certain corresponding fields between the account in question and an EmpowerID Person. By default, the logic looks matches between the FirstName and LastName attributes. If matches are found, the logic looks for any one of the following matches. If a match is found, (and the conditions of the above mentioned join functions are met), EmpowerID will join the account to the Person. This function can be modified to define custom matching logic.
