Koyb, How long is a string?
It is difficult or impossible to answer your question. You state, "data in AD is messed up" - I assume you got very poor data quality, no naming standard, lack of phone number standard, use of incorrect fields, no good unique identifier, no standard for department names and more. There is nothing like a "typical integration" every project is different. Are you going to have a one way feed? What about leaver? Are you going to automate the leavers' process? Who or what if feeding AD? Created manually? Integrated with different HR systems? Who owns the AD data? How is responsible for maintenance of AD? Is it maintained? If AD is the source of People data in BMC - please do not forget: shit in shit out! Creating staging forms and more within BMC is good and well. Most of us have done that a number of times. My first advice would be to clean the data at source. AD is more likely feeding a number of systems. I would recommend a AD cleanup project. That will benefit a larger audience. ~ Terje From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Koyb P.

We are trying to integrate AD with Remedy to update our people profiles. Our challenge is that the data in AD is messed up. Approximately how long does it take to typically integrate AD and Remedy (when there are data problems)? (from the concept until completion). We have a couple of options: create vendor forms create staging form create escalation from push AD to Vendor, and from the Vendor to Staging OR should I used UDM? or pre-defined LDAP jobs use DMT staging form - to validate LDAP filters Which approach is better is better? and what are some of the advantages / disadvantages? _ARSlist: "Where the Answers Are" and have been for 20 years_ _______________________________________________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org "Where the Answers Are, and have been for 20 years"
