Synchronize for the first time

To complete the initial AUSS setup, run the synchronization for the first time. Either follow manual steps in this section, or configure AUSS automatic synchronization schedule as described in Synchronization schedule and options.

  1. Log in to MarkView and navigate to Administration > AUSS Mapping Administration.
  2. Ensure that your Source System Group to MarkView Profile mappings are correct and complete.
  3. On the Synchronization tab, click Synchronize to synchronize users.

    The Start Manual Synchronization window opens.

  4. In the Start Manual Synchronization window, select Override manually created MarkView users if you want to update manually created MarkView users during AUSS synchronization.
    Note If AUSS processes a Source System user and a manually created user with the same user name already exists in MarkView, AUSS updates or does not update the existing user according to the AUSS mappings depending on the option you select. If the option is enabled, the overridden user becomes an AUSS managed user, receives assignments in accordance with AUSS mappings and loses all the previous assignments that do not match AUSS mappings. If the option is not enabled, AUSS does not update such users. Subsequent incremental synchronizations can also override manually created MarkView users with the option enabled, but only for the users which AUSS detects as updated since the previous synchronization.

    If you will need to override manually created MarkView users at a different time later, you will be able to do it by running manual synchronization with both Override manually created MarkView users and Force full synchronization options enabled.

  5. Select a synchronization method:

    • Synchronize all Source System users: For the first-time synchronization, adds all Source System users to MarkView even if they do not belong to any Source System Group configured in AUSS.

    • Synchronize only AUSS managed users: For the first-time synchronization, adds only the Source System users that belong to at least one Source System Group configured in AUSS.

  6. For the initial synchronization, do not select Force full synchronization.
  7. Click Start sync to start synchronization.
