Field | Description |
|---|---|
Attribute | Choose an attribute from the drop-down list to affiliate with the sponsored accounts. This drop-down list is automatically populated with the GAL item attributes that have been defined by your organization. |
Display Name | This is the Display/Friendly Name of the GAL item. This field will automatically populate once the attribute is selected, but can be modified to display as something else. Note that this only controls the headers in the List View; the name of the actual attribute will be displayed on the user's details. The GAL can be added and modified by going to Configuration > Systems > LDAP > Global Attribute List. |
Allow Editing | This defines whether the user and admin can alter the attribute themselves. |
Required | This can only be enabled if Allow Editing is checked. If enabled, the field must be populated in order to update the profile. |
Show in List | If checked, a new column with the Display Name will be added to the list view of Sponsored accounts.  |
Show in Details | If checked, the attribute value(s) will appear when the Details are viewed. |
Include in Duplicate Account Detection | If checked and a person is attempting to be added with field data in this attribute field that matches another account, the user is made aware. This prevents duplicate accounts from being created. |
