I am working to automate the initial "loadusers" user load and maintain it on a daily basis (using input from Lawson HR and Lawson RM). I will have two portal roles, one for manager self-service and the other for employee self-service. I have recently learned that some non-managers will be using manager self-service (e.g. Executive secretaries, Administrative staff). Has anyone automated their user RM maintenance, and if so, how do you identify which employees get MSS versus ESS?
HI Matt, Thanks for your reply. I was wondering how other clients identify who gets MSS versus ESS - by the employee's HR11 job class, or because their position is on HR07 (supervisor table), or whatever.
Regarding automating this: I have a daily ProcessFlow extract from HR and from LSA/RM. I'm writing an application that compares the employees on HR to the RMID's in LSA and building a "loaduser" XML file to add new RMID's, inactive terminated RMID's, or make any necessary changes (name changes, people promoted from staff to management, etc.). I then plan to automate the daily running of the loadusers command using the XML file built by this application. I'm a new client - is this pretty typical of what people do to automatically maintain their RMID's for self-service?
