Make User ID as Non Mandatory Field in OIM

Make User ID as Non Mandatory Field on Create User Form

In most of the business requirements, we generate user id at the time of user creation. So in that case if we don’t fill User ID field then it throws error to us.

To avoid this,

1. Go to OIM_HOME/xellerate/config

2. Take backup of FormMetadata.xml

3. Open FormMetaData.xml in edit mode

4. Search for Form name="3" and search following line

AttributeReference editable="true" optional="false">-16 /AttributeReference

5. Make changes in following line fro optional attribute

AttributeReference editable="true" optional="true">-16 /AttributeReference

6. Save FormMetaData.xml and Restart the Application Server.
