Sample Data Set: Button for testing the LDAP server job parameters. Clicking the button Sample Data Set will open up a page that will fetch 20 random users or organization units from the LDAP server based on your parameters entered in LDAP server job. This feature is useful as a test, since no changes are saved in NSP. This way you are able to see if the data from the LDAP server will be imported to NSP in a properly structured way.

Sync Now: Button is used to fetch users from the LDAP now (this is considered to be online mode). Sync now button will open up a page that will fetch all users from the LDAP server based on your parameters entered in LDAP server job. You are able to select the ones you want to import to NSP by marking them in the far left column, and then clicking button Save. If you want to import all of the shown users, you just click the Save All button (you don’t need to mark them). Click the eye icon (Show all) at the top of the window to turn on all entries view instead of page view.

Sync log: Button displays previous sync details, log history and provides approver for non-auto approved import. History progress is created each time when job is run according the schedule and collects previous job sync details, like starting date and progress status, which is used to check if sync was successfully run.

Progress can be started manually or automatically when scheduled. Both situations will create new progress. Progress is defined as compiling data about all users who meet the criteria set at the log table. If auto approved import is set ”✓”, all inserted users from log table are synchronized with user table. If auto approved import is not set ”x”, users must be approved manually. Two job progresses cannot be run at the same time. Every import whether it was a Sync Now or a Scheduled job is shown as a record in a table in History progress page.

Current schedule: Button provides a page for scheduling offline batch sync jobs. This page will allow you to schedule automated syncing of LDAP server and NSP. You are able to set the daily, weekly, monthly or just once generated batch job. The schedule settings are the same as settings for scheduled reports, see Schedule Reports. When the schedule is defined you can see the status of schedule, for example latest and next run time in Scheduled Events.

Clone: Button to clone the existing job configuration.

Delete: Delete selected job.

Edit: Button to edit the existing job. Clicking it opens the same interface as an Add new record page but with previously filled information – which can now be modified.
