Concept: User Sync with Adaptive Planning

Concept: User Sync with Adaptive Planning

Integration System User

Workday generates an integration system user (ISU) named ISU_Workday_Adaptive_Insights_User_Provisioning when you successfully complete the
Enable User Sign-On for Adaptive Planning
task. The ISU is critical for providing audit logs and running user sync. It doesn't require configuration or security assignments. Workday automatically associates the ISU to User Sign On.

Presyncing Users

Running presync enables you to find and fix cases where Workday accounts don’t match accounts in Adaptive Planning. Running presync also enables you to validate your configuration before running sync. Running presync doesn’t commit changes to your Workday tenant or Adaptive Planning instance; you can run presync as frequently as you need to. To view the users who don't match during presync, run the
View Pre-Sync Details
report.
Workday uses the first and last names and email addresses of users in Adaptive Planning to match users in Workday. Workday first attempts to match the preferred first and last names with Adaptive Planning. If the preferred first and last names don't match, Workday attempts to match the legal first and last names.
In Workday, verify that the email addresses of the presynced users are set up as Public and the email type is set to Work.
.

Syncing Users

The
Adaptive Planning Integration
domain secures the options for user provisioning but doesn't alone enable you to sync Workday accounts with Adaptive Planning. You need additional access to the 
Set Up: Tenant Setup - Adaptive Planning
and
Set Up: System
domains to set up, complete, and schedule user sync.

Deleting Users

To delete a user from Adaptive Planning, remove them from the
Access Adaptive Planning
domain. Workday deletes the user from Adaptive Planning the next time user sync runs.
Workday recommends that you don't delete access from the last user who owns the top or corporate level in the Adaptive Planning hierarchy model. Workday won't delete their access during user sync. To remove access from the last user, assign another user to the top or corporate level and then delete the user from Adaptive Planning.
