Custom Attribute Handling in the User Console

The following are the limitations for custom attribute handling in the User Console:

• With the Siebel Connector you can have different mapping information for each acquired endpoint. For example, eTSBLUserCustomField1 can be mapped to different Siebel fields on different endpoints. In the User Console, only the same labels for all Siebel endpoints can be displayed. If you have different mapping information for each endpoint, the User Console displays custom attributes on four screens:
  • eTSBLUserCustomField1...eTSBLUserCustomField10
  • eTSBLUserCustomField11...eTSBLUserCustomField20
  • eTSBLUserCustomCapabilityField1...eTSBLUserCustomCapabilityField10
  • eTSBLUserCustomCapabilityField11...eTSBLUserCustomCapabilityField20

  You can use the first ten attributes for endpoints with one mapping type and the second ten attributes for endpoints with another mapping type.

• You can change Siebel mappings in the User Console by editing the labels manually.

  For more information, on editing screens. see the User Console Design Guide.

  Note: The account template and account profile screens are read-only screens. Before following the procedure for editing profile screens, make a copy of the account template or account profile screens and save.

• In the Provisioning Manager, a combo box control is displayed for custom attributes that have been configured to use only pre-defined values. In the User Console the attributes can be displayed, but you must type in the values.
