HR link with Lotus Notes Address Book


With UMRA we create a lot of links from HR systems to Active Directory in order to automate user account management.

UMRA is able to collect data that is important for creating, updating and disabling user accounts, with one of the 130+ connectors. As an example, we can read from an HR system when new users are employed or changes occur in titles, transfers to other departments and other associated contact data.

Besides user account management in Active Directory, UMRA can also be applied to update Lotus Notes. We are regularly in contact with clients who have a Lotus Notes address book containing outdated information about staff. Phone numbers are no longer correct or manually completed titles and department names contain spelling errors.

Through UMRA we can easily and quickly – typically within 1 to 2 days - connect the Lotus Notes address book to the HR system, such as SAP or PeopleSoft. These systems include the most up-to-date information for employees, which UMRA can rapidly synchronize to the Lotus Notes Address Book. On the Lotus Notes side, nothing needs to be changed to accomplish this. UMRA can intelligently decide which data needs to be modified and then update only those specific details. For the IT organization, UMRA can provide detailed reporting about what data on what people has been changed and at what time. It is also possible to configure UMRA so that certain data will not be transferred on a one-to-one basis to Lotus Notes. UMRA offers full support for Lotus Notes, including complex operation and account management.
