The problem with that is you are needing the business rule to run off the sys_user_grmember table and setting a value in the sys_user table.


Plus, we've determined that it runs when you manually add/remove someone from the group, so the business rule seems to work.



Here is what i would do.


Create a new community post with the question of why is my business rule not running on the LDAP import explaining that it works when you manually add someone to the group, but when the transform map does it, the business rule does not run even when 'run business rules' is checked.


This might find someone who has an answer to respond since this issue is not obvious from the current post question...

THat worked, though i did not find the phrase "arrived at business rule" after adding a user into that active directory group, syncing LDAP and confirming the user was in the SN group, what should we check next to find out why the business rule isnt triggered by the ldap sync? should it not be a transform map ?


On the membership records (sys_user_grmember), what does it show as the created_by on the ones that are added by the LDAP import?   Typically, it should say 'system'.


I am running out of ideas


Oh, it says created by guest, what does that tell you ?

That seems strange to me, but only because I have never seen that.


Take a look at your LDAP scheduled loads, the one that manages your group import.


It can be found under System LDAP>Scheduled Loads.


When you bring up that list of records, add the 'Run as' field to the list, and see what is entered (if anything).


I am wondering if the guest acct has been added there.


It's empty, so i guess i should try adding a admin account in there?
