Map EmpowerID Locations to External Locations

If you create new EmpowerID Locations and want to use those locations to manage resources from an external directory (after the initial mapping and inventory of that directory), you must map those new EmpowerID Locations to the appropriate directory location. For example, if you create an EmpowerID Location named "Dublin" and move people to that location, in order for the user accounts linked to those people to be moved to a corresponding "Dublin" OU in the external directory, the Dublin EmpowerID Location needs to be mapped to the corresponding Dublin OU.

Prerequisites

The external location must exist in an external directory to which EmpowerID is connected. For information on connecting EmpowerID to external directories, see Connectors (OOB).

Map locations

On the navbar, expand Role Management and click Business Roles and Locations.
Select the Locations tab and search for the EmpowerID Location you want to map.
Click the Display Name link.

This directs you to the View One page for the Location. View One pages allow you to view and manage the objects to which they pertain.
On the View One page, expand the Mapped External Locations accordion.
Click the Add button.
In the Mapped Locations window that appears, do the following:
1. Select Is Primary if the mapping is to be primary
2. Click Select an External Location and then search and select the appropriate location from the tree.
3. Click Save to save the location and close the tree.
When ready to commit your change, click Submit.
