Logical Attribute Handler at Run Time

After you create and deploy the logical attribute handler, the newly created logical attribute is ready for use. You can now assign the logical attribute name to a task screen field. Assigning a logical attribute to a field is no different than assigning a physical attribute to a field.

During task screen configuration, logical attributes that can be assigned to task screen fields appear in the Attribute Name dropdown list. Attribute Name is one of the field properties you define when configuring a particular field on the task screen. CA IdentityMinder includes registered logical attribute names in this dropdown list automatically.

Both logical attribute names and physical attribute names are listed in Attribute Name. A logical attribute name appears within vertical bars ( | ), just as it is defined in the Management Console. For example, a Date logical attribute appears as |Date|.
