Claire, If it is possible in ARS, then it can be done via the API. (Or a function of an API client program.)
SHR:People is just an ARS form. It is subject to the same API calls as any other ARS form. (Submit, Modify, Merge, etc...) So in a nutshell... can an ARS API client program create a SHR:People record.. Yep. The User tool does it with the API. The Mid-Tier does it with the API, and you can write your very own API client to make that record too. (And any other records that might be needed to "fill out the profile" too. However that is not to say that the ARS OOB application conform to any kind of "standard profile", nor does it have a "Profile object" or .createProfile() method in the API either. I think your need someone who understands the ARS API (a C or Java or ARS Perl Programmer) talking to the "System X" people so that your management do not hear things like "Remedy can not do that, but we can" when it is not true. Good luck. -- Carey Matthew Black Remedy Skilled Professional (RSP) ARS = Action Request System(Remedy) Love, then teach Solution = People + Process + Tools Fast, Accurate, Cheap.... Pick two.
