Hello,
in many companies it is a common scenario to have at least for AD accounts usernames like firstName.lastName@corp.
Does someone has experience and some recommendation how to generate such account names from identies generated in a HCM scenario?
I think about a solution like this:
- in the exit script for user generation you read first name / last name from current table content in staging area
- then the scripts builds a username and reads active directory or master area to check if user is unique, if not a counter is added to name
What do you think about this?
Best Regards,
Frank Wagner
Matt's own blog post from a few years ago shows a solution similar to the one you suggest, Frank.

Frank this is a pretty standard IDM Scenario.
There are a few identity related AD attributes that you need to consider:
sAMAccountname, which is the login id, is usually firstname.lastname
userPrincipalName, is the domain login, and is usually firstname.lastname [a t ] company.com
Displayname is usually firstname lastname
email is usually firstname.lastname [a t ] company.com
There's undoubtedly others and I think you get the drift at this point.
In IDM these can all be set in a toLDAP pass.
Hope this helps
