6.3 Populating the Identity Vault with Organizational Data

In order to populate the Identity Vault with the organizational data, the existing data must be exported from SAP. To export your organization’s hierarchical data, perform the following steps before starting the driver:

  1. In the SAP client, enter transaction code PFAL.

  2. Insert the Object Type O for Organization objects.

  3. Specify the organizations you want to export to the Identity Vault. You can choose to export one organization, a range of organizations, or all organizations.

    If you are exporting a range of objects, go to the Parallel Processing tab on the HR: ALE Distribution of HR Master Data page, then select a value of 100 or less at the Number of Object per Process prompt. This ensures that driver processing does not consume too much Java heap space.

  4. Click Execute. Ensure that the status is set to Passed to Port Okay.

  5. Repeat Step 1 through Step 4 for Object Type C for Job objects.

  6. Repeat Step 1 through Step 4 for Object Type S for Position objects.

    IMPORTANT:Export the objects in the order specified above. This ensures that the driver creates the correct relationships when users are imported into the Identity Vault.
