Flag to know how a user was created

Hi, I would like to add a new column in the table Person through SchemaExtension, the aim will to automatically fill it as per the way the user was created : either an import or a manual creation via the web portail.

my question is : is there any way to differantiate these two ways and how can i set up this configuration (i know through a simple process but how can i specify my need) ?

thanks a lot

  • Hi,

    There is already an attribute on the Person table that you could use for this purpose - ImportSource. If an entry is created in Person from the ADSAccount - it will be set to ADS. The field has a 'List of permitted values' that can be extended as you require. I recently did an implementation where I created Employee (Person) records from a HR CSV feed. For this scenario I set the value to HR to denote that it came from HR.

    HTH, Barry.
