Within the Administrator Portal in Profile Manager, the ability to import users into Profile Manager currently exists. This feature has been expanded to also provision the users into both Profile Manager and
PTT Pro
for the desired Customer.
In a fully integrated solution when Active Directory supports both, Profile Manager and
PTT Pro
, the Active Directory connection provides three fundamental functions:
  1. User Authentication
    • Granting User access to the system by validating credentials
    • Providing a shared device usage model
  2. User Provisioning
    • As Associates join and leave the enterprise and are added to and deleted from Active Directory, this connection to Profile Manager and
      PTT Pro
      automatically modifies the User databases reflecting the changes.
  3. Attribute Transformations
    • Various elements in Active Directory can be evaluated to determine the Profile configuration received by the Users.
      The Import Device Users feature is provided for Customers:
    • Without integration into Active Directory for User provisioning, and provides a simple method to populate user information into the Profile Manager and PTT Pro Systems.
    • Use of this feature for trials and implementations before the investment is made to integrate the Workforce Connection Solution with the Enterprise Active Directory system.
