Overwrite LDAP CustomerUser Map field with static value

[hypex]

Hi there

I have LDAP backend setup for CustomerUser and would like to overwrite a map field with a static value. Currently its pulling the Active Directory field 'company' which is empty. I would like to hard code a value in, lets say 'ABC' but when i change it I presume its looking for the Active Directory attribute "ABC" which doesn't exists returning empty.

Code: Select all

 Map => [
       ...
            #want to change this
            [ 'UserCustomerID', 'CustomerID', 'company',            0, 1, 'var', '', 0 ],
            #to this
            [ 'UserCustomerID', 'CustomerID', 'ABC',            0, 1, 'var', '', 0 ],

Is this possible or can you suggest a better way to approach this?

My original thoughts was to copy Kernel/System/CustomerUser/LDAP.pm, add a switch to the Map array telling LDAP.pm to read it as a staticvalue but that will be a nightmare going forward for updates.

hi,

it would help if you explain what are you trying to achieve with this because to me it doesnt make much sense.
