Mapping a WebSphere Commerce user name to a IBM Digital Analytics user name for single sign-on
If you have business users with a WebSphere Commerce user name that is different from their user name for IBM Digital Analytics, formerly known as Coremetrics Analytics, you must configure a mapping of these names in the WebSphere Commerce database to support single sign-on.
An example is a
business user who logs on to Management Center as johndoe
but
logs on to IBM Digital Analytics by
using a shared user name like ibmanalytics
. You can
map more than one WebSphere Commerce user name to a single IBM Digital Analytics user
name.
If you do not perform this procedure, the business user's WebSphere Commerce user name is assumed to be the same as the IBM Digital Analytics user name. When a business user attempts to launch IBM Digital Analytics from Management Center, if there is no matching user name in IBM Digital Analytics, then the authentication fails and the business user is forced to log on to IBM Digital Analytics separately.
Before you begin
- Identify the business users who have WebSphere Commerce user names that are different from their IBM Digital Analytics user name.
- Gather the WebSphere Commerce user names for these business users. The user names are stored in the LOGONID column of the USERREG table. Also gather the corresponding IBM Digital Analytics user name for each business user.
