User PIN Map Wizard

A User PIN Map policy is used to determine the User PIN policy to apply when a user creates a PIN. When a user creates or modifies their PIN, SirsiDynix Symphony examines User PIN maps and finds a User PIN map that contains the library and user profile that matches those of the user. SirsiDynix Symphony then uses the corresponding User PIN policy to determine the requirements for the PIN the user is creating.

Since SirsiDynix Symphony looks for matching maps from the bottom of the User PIN Map list up, the order of the map lines is important. For more information, see Policy Operations for Map Policies.

From the List Policies window, you can create, display, modify, copy, or remove the User PIN Map policies. Click Close to exit the wizard.

Attributes

The User PIN Map wizard displays the following attributes:

Name

This attribute uniquely identifies a specific User PIN Map policy. This name is ten characters or fewer and may not include spaces or punctuation, except for dash (-), underscore (_), and dollar sign ($). Additionally, the pipe character (|) may not be used.

Description

This attribute provides more information about the policy and its use by the library. The description may be up to 60 characters in length. Although the Description attribute may contain spaces and punctuation, the pipe character (|) cannot be used.

Library

The Library attribute in a User PIN Map policy refers to one or more Library policy names. In the User PIN Map policy, the Library attribute refers to the library of the patron whose PIN is being created or modified. The specifications defined in each User PIN Map policy may apply to one library, multiple libraries, or to all libraries. Choose the Library gadget to select Library policies. Choose the Library Policy helper (Library Wizard) to make changes to existing library policies.

User Access

The User Access attribute in a User PIN Map policy refers to one or more User Access policy names. In the User PIN Map policy, the User Access attribute refers to the User Access policy associated with the patron whose PIN is being created or modified (SirsiDynix Symphony determines the User Access policy associated with the patron using the patron's user profile). The specifications defined in each User PIN Map policy may apply to one User Access policy, multiple User Access policies, or to all User Access policies. Choose the User Access gadget to select User Access policies. Use the User Access Policy helper (User Access Wizard) to create new User Access policies or modify existing policies, if needed.

User PIN Policy

The User PIN Policy attribute in a User PIN Map policy refers to a User PIN policy name. Each User PIN policy specifies PIN security requirements when creating or modifying a user PIN. The specifications defined in each User PIN Map policy may apply to one User PIN policy only. Select a User PIN policy from the list. Use the User PIN Policy helper (User PIN Policy Wizard) to create new User PIN policies or modify existing policies, if needed.
