2093457 - SF User Connector - Copy Function

Symptom

Is it possible to map one BizX column to more than one LMS column when using the User Connector SF? & use one field value to map it to multiple columns in LMS using User Connector.

Environment

SAP SuccessFactors Learning

Resolution

It is possible to map a BizX column to an LMS column, and then copy the value from that LMS column to the other LMS column using the Copy function.
For example: To copy the BizX column "TITLE" into the LMS column "JOB_TITLE", the CONNECTORS property file on System Admin> Configuration> System Configuration, would have the following line:

  • sfuser.field.mapping.data.JOB_TITLE=TITLE

Then if there is a need to also copy the BizX column "TITLE" into the LMS column "JP_DESC", the CONNECTORS property file would also have the following Copy function line:

  • sfuser.connector.copy.field.mappings=JP_DESC=JOB_TITLE

This means that the User Connector - SF would copy the values passed for the BizX column "TITLE" into the LMS column "JOB_TITLE". Then the values from the LMS column "JOB_TITLE" would be copied over to the LMS column "JP_DESC".

Please note: The copy function can also be used for multiple mappings, hence there is no need to have multiple copy function lines for each business need. 

For example, there is a business need to map the BizX column "LOCATION" into the LMS columns "JL_ID" and "JL_DESC", in addition to the above scenario. Then the CONNECTORS property file will contain the following lines:

  • sfuser.field.mapping.data.JOB_TITLE=TITLE
  • sfuser.field.mapping.data.JL_ID=LOCATION
  • sfuser.connector.copy.field.mappings=JP_DESC=JOB_TITLE, JL_DESC=JL_ID

The same logic applies when you are using the User Connector as well but the only change is instead of "sfuser.connector.copy" use "user.connector.copy"
