I've been struggling with OID directory integration for a couple of days now, not least because of the paucity of documentation and the inaccuracy of the docs as well - posting as an example a sqlstatement that won't even compile is pretty poor really. Anyway If anyone could help me out with Apps HR to OID integration I'd be very grateful - my problem statement is below.

I've been researching this for a couple of days now with limited success. I have OID 10.1.4.0.1 setup on windows and am trying to provision users from an ebusiness suite HR installation. I have performed the following steps so far

Got the sample synchronisation to work from the documentation

I need however to synchronise my own information from HR rather than the supplied sample configuration. Since some of the data comes from tables you can't map directly I am attempting to use a custom sql statement in the configuration file. So I next did

2. Follow note 352816.1 from metalink and successfully get their sample sql statement to work.

3. Modify the sqlstatement to return the data that I want. Run odihragent manually as follows.

C:\oracle\10.2.0\IM\ldap\odi\conf>C:\oracle\10.2.0\IM\ldap\odi/bin/odihragent SQLHRAgent connect=<tnsnames entry> login=apps pass=<pass> date=20000101000000 - this generates a .dat file with the correct data in it.

4. enable the dip profile for SQLHRAgent and start odisrv. This runs but no entries are created in OID, The trace file for the profile reads as follows

I assume therefore that there may be some mapping or matching error - does anyone know how to further troubleshoot this.
