Flat File Connector: Reconciliation Rule

Description: Reconciliation rules are used by the reconciliation engine for entity matching. During reconciliation, when a target system record is pulled into OIM, the reconciliation engine tries to match the target system record with existing OIM user records. The matching process is typically comparing a specific OIM User profile attribute to an attribute on the target system.

1. In design console, navigate to Development Tools -> Reconciliation Rules.

2. Create a new reconciliation rule with the following data:
Name: FFReconRule
Object: FLATFILERESOURCE

User Profile Data: User Login
Operator: Equals
Attribute: AccountId
