Realization of an interface to manage user accounts in other systems and applications than Active Directory, Exchange and NTFS is a next step. In this phase, the notification e-mails that are normally sent to application administrators are replaced with automatic connections.

XML of API

This interface via UMRA can be realized in three ways:

• via a standard import method of the application (e.g an XML file)
• an application with Client Side Provisioning
• an Application Programming interface (API)

UMRA can connect with many different systems and applications. Click here for a complete overview of possible connections.

Advantages

The result of this phase is:

• a clear way of managing Windows user accounts is also applied to other systems and applications
• reducing the administrative burden on the applications and provides simplicity for the end user
• a very short turnaround for the availability of user accounts across the organization
