Manager Correlation with NERM RAW data in IDN

We are using the NERM Out of the box configuration and in the manager field it is coming in as Manager Name; Manger Number. We do a simple split transform to get just the name however we cannot get it to show in the User profile i think due to the correlation and the data coming in from the source as the above before the transform.

Do anyone have a rule or a transform that will allow me to split the data and then manager correlate so that the new NERM user can be tied to their manager?

I tried to get the Client to lose the id in NERM so it could come in as the name and then simple Correlation but they will not so i have to figure a way to work around it to get the manager to show up for certifications

Thanks for any help

Hi,

Can you elaborate more on the requirement?

You can refer below documentation.

I think it would be easiest for you to build into your workflow that you (for instance) grab a unique identifier from the profile you selected as a manager. Example, you generate an ‘employee id’ on each profile you create. Then use an ‘set attribute value’ step to grab that attribute from the selected manager profile.

Then use that field (for instance, you’d call it ‘manager id’) to do the manager correlation.

So, we have a PowerShell that someone created that is importing into both manager and manger ID via API in NERM the value manager / Managerid so its a drop down for someone to fill out. there is no logic in NERM to split the two out in NERM before so when it comes into IDN it comes together which cannot correlate due to the way the value is coming in since correlation is done at the source and not on the profile.

My thoughts where to create a correlation rule. or open to anything that would allow me to use this process to get a manager correlation.

Do you think can create a API NERM step that call IDN to pull in the manager instead of the script to give a better and easier data for the drop down option

HI,

I am not much sure on the NERM part. But manager correlation rule will solve your issue.

I think as long as you have an attribute value coming in that represents the manager and is unique in your ISC (and NERM) tenant, you can do this via either manager correlation or a manager correlation rule.
