Abstract
An identity mapping system includes an identity mapping database and a master user table (MUT) communicatively coupled with the identity mapping database. The MUT includes a record having at least one record data field, a unique user identification (ID) field and at least one user data field. The at least one user data field contains data from a software application.
Claims30
An identity mapping system, comprising:
- an identity mapping database;
- and
- a master user table (MUT) communicatively coupled with the identity mapping database, wherein the MUT includes a record having at least one record data field, a unique user identification (ID) field and at least one user data field, the at least one user data field containing data from a software application.
An identity mapping system, comprising:
- at least one a user identification (UID) associated with a software application;
- at least one human resources (HR) directory having user data selected from a primary active HR directory, additional active HR directories or other HR directories;
- an identity mapping database;
- and
- a master user table (MUT) communicatively coupled with the identity mapping database, wherein the MUT includes a record having at least one record data field, a unique user identification (ID) field and at least one user data field, the at least one user data field comprising data selected by a highest priority assigned to one of the at least one software application and the at least one human resources (HR) directory.
A method of automatically generating a report with an identity mapping system, comprising:
- reviewing one or more master user table (MUT) records with a identity mapping database to identify first records corresponding to a request for a report by comparing a first field in the MUT records;
- identifying second records from the first records by comparing a second field in the first records;
- and
- recording at least a portion of each of the second records in the report.
A method of identifying a user of a software application, comprising:
- applying a rule for comparing at least one user field from the software application against a corresponding field in a record in a master user table (MUT), wherein the at least one user field is not associated with a known user of the software application;
- and
- identifying a match by comparing the at least one field from the software application against the corresponding field in the record in the master user table (MUT), wherein a portion of the at least one user field from the software application is identical to a portion of the corresponding field in the record in the master user table (MUT), and the record in the master user table (MUT) is associated with a known individual.
