Purpose

If Create User on SAML Login is activated, then a Userid will automatically be created in SAP Enable Now for any user accessing SAP Enable Now for the first time. ('Accessing' means either logging on to Manager, or displaying any content housed in SAP Enable Now.) The Role for Automatic User Creation setting defines the User Role that should be assigned to the.

Use

This is a simple text field (there is no picklist of valid options), and you need to specify the exact 'fully-qualified' Distinguished Name of the User Role. If you get it slightly wrong, the Userid will not be created, and the user's access request will be denied. Start with the User Role name prefixed with G=, and follow this with the Role's OU prefixed with OU=, its parent OU, and so on, all the way up to Root. For example:

G=Learners,OU=system,OU=root

means 'the Learners role, which is in the Organizational Unit root > system'.
