This article will outline our AlexisHR integration for user provisioning.
Connecting Eletive to AlexisHR will allow for automatic provisioning of your employee data.
Data Mapping
Standard Fields
The standard fields when synching users between Eletive and AlexisHR are shown in the table below and these will be synced automatically. The language will be set to English by default when the user is created. After that, the language can be changed within Eletive without being overwritten.
Field - Eletive | Field - AlexisHR |
First name | First Name |
Last name | Last Name |
External Id | Internal ID |
Note: Please note that all standard fields, First Name, Last Name and Internal ID are mandatory to make the user syncable. Users without First Name, Last Name or Internal ID in AlexisHR will NOT be synced.
Attributes
To sync attributes, first, create the proper attributes in Eletive, and then connect AlexisHR and perform the attribute mapping. Other fields in AlexisHR that can be interesting to include can be Employment Types, Department, Birth Date, etc. Custom fields in AlexisHR can also be used. If needed, you can read more about adding attributes and the different types of attributes in Eletive here.
To build the organizational structure in Eletive, our automatic hierarchies feature can be used. Additionally, AlexisHR contains a field called Manager. This can be mapped to a User type attribute in Eletive to get the organization hierarchy, as the manager field in AlexisHR contains a unique ID.
Example mappings:
Attribute - Eletive | Field - AlexisHR |
Manager (Needs to be created) | Manager |
Date of Birth (Standard Attribute) | Birth Date |
Department (Standard Attribute) | Department |
Gender (Standard Attribute) | Gender |
Connect
After the proper attributes have been created in Eletive, proceed with this guide.
