ichris lifecycle automation

Connect ichris HR data to governed identity lifecycle workflows.

UNIFYConnect can integrate Frontier Software ichris with Microsoft Entra ID, Active Directory, and supported IDAM platforms so joiner, mover, leaver, and manager relationship changes flow through a managed operating model.

Source Frontier Software ichris workforce data
Automate onboarding, updates, offboarding, and manager relationships
Provision Microsoft Entra ID, Active Directory, and supported IDAM platforms
Integration objective

ichris can drive timely identity updates across connected directories.

ichris often holds the workforce events and organisational relationships that identity teams need to act on quickly.
UNIFYConnect can broker that data into governed provisioning and update workflows without relying on brittle manual administration.
Authoritative HR source
Use ichris HR data as the trusted source for workforce-driven identity lifecycle events.
Automated lifecycle actions
Create, update, disable, and maintain corporate directory accounts from approved ichris changes.
Relationship synchronisation
Keep manager and direct report relationships aligned with ichris position hierarchy data.
Supported integration methods
Use established BRE and GTR methods where required for customer ichris and chris21 environments.
Supported pattern

UNIFYConnect uses approved ichris integration methods to automate identity outcomes.

The UNIFYConnect/ichris connector uses established Frontier Software integration methods, including Business Rules Engine and General Transaction Record patterns where required. Microsoft Entra ID connectivity uses Microsoft Graph, Active Directory connectivity uses secure directory protocols, and private-network targets can use UNIFYConnect Agent where required.
ichris source data Read approved workforce, position, manager, and lifecycle attributes from the customer’s ichris environment.
Cloud identity Synchronise supported lifecycle outcomes to Microsoft Entra ID and other cloud-managed identity targets.
Private network Use secure connectivity options for Active Directory and other internal targets where required.
Requirements

Successful delivery depends on prepared ichris and identity environments.

UNIFY works with the customer to confirm ichris access, supported integration methods, target-system permissions, network connectivity, test data, and the operating model needed for production lifecycle automation.
ichris access
Frontier Software ichris or chris21 BRE v7.1.21 or later, with approved integration access.
Connector permissions
A dedicated ichris or chris21 account with the required BRE, GTR, or web service permissions.
Identity target access
Required Microsoft Graph, LDAPS, or supported target-system permissions.
