User Management Resource Administrator: User Account Management for Windows 2003/XP/2000/NT

AUTOMATION - HR Information Systems to Active Directory



User Management Resource Administrator AUTOMATION is a user provisioning software that allows IT administrators to seamlessly integrate their human resource information systems with Active Directory (or other directory systems: Novell, Linux, etc.). This will allow complete user provisioning and user de-provisioning at the time of hire or dismissal. AUTOMATION allows information systems to easily connect to Active Directory by using COM (VBA, VB, ASP, etc) or a Command Line Interface. The AUTOMATION module eliminates duplicate work and possible data entry errors in when working with multiple systems, (HR Database, Phone System, Payroll Database, Active Directory, etc.) as soon as a change is made in one system, it is made in all systems at a pre-defined interval. When an employee is hired and entered into the HR information system they are automatically provisioned in Active Directory: assigned to the appropriate OU, workgroup, create the exchange account, etc. As soon as the employee leaves the company they are automatically de-provisioned and their account is removed from Active Directory.

Example
An employee leaves the company; the information is updated in PeopleSoft Enterprise (one of many HR information systems) by Human Resources and is then automatically processed in Active Directory and other directories and applications. This ensures that former employees cannot gain access to the company network after their departure.



The challenge
User Account Information is stored and maintained in multiple information systems before it is entered or changed in Active Directory or another user directory. Organizations re-enter the information repeatedly from one database to another, resulting in costly labor overhead and out of sync account information – this process generally leads to errors across systems as well as overall system pollution.

The solution
Many companies would consider developing complicated scripts or internally developing a custom application that would act as an Identity Management System – linking your Information Systems together and acting as a hub for all data entry. These options are costly and time consuming, almost always taking longer than expected to implement, and in the end, these solutions may not be immediately compatible with Active Directory.

With the UMRA AUTOMATION solution you need only set up the interface once and define the mapping between the account information and the structure of your Active Directory (e.g. OU structure, group memberships, account naming conventions, etc.). This can easily be achieved, or if you have a complex Active Directory structure, one of our consultants can support you. This mapping is done using an easy drag-and-drop graphical interface and does not require any ADSI or Active Directory knowledge at all. Once complete any changes made in your Human Resources Information system will be updated in your Active Directory, this can be done on a pre-schedule basis or run on a manual basis, making your Human Resources department responsible for maintaining the quality of end-user information in all information systems within your network and easing the load on both the network administrator and on the helpdesk.
