Specify the Source for a Multi-Valued Attribute

Using the Create Account Screen task, you can specify the source for a multi-valued attribute. If the Value Source is set to Provisioning Server and your attribute is multi-valued, such as Active Directory groups taken from the target Active Directory system, you need to perform additional configuration.

To specify the source for a multi-valued attribute

1. Open the Option Pack database.
2. In the IDF_AdminObjects table, add a new row.
3. Provide the attribute information in the new row. Use the following Active Directory Groups attribute as an example:
   • Name=ADGroups—the name of the attribute you need to populate. This is the attribute name you specified when you acquired the endpoint type.
   • ObjectClass=eTADSGroup—the name of the object as it appears in the Provisioning Directory.
   • RealNameAttribute=eTADSdistinguishedName—the physical name of the attribute.
   • DisplayNameAttr=eTADSGroupName—the name to be displayed in the account management screen.
   • Namespace=ActiveDirectory—the endpoint type.
4. Follow the above procedure for all other multi-valued attributes, such as UNIX group or MSSQL roles.
