Edusync Microsoft can not retain matches following an MIS migration. The guide below will help you mitigate the occurrence of object duplication in Microsoft Entra ID.
What to expect when migrating your school’s MIS as a user of Edusync Microsoft
- Once you notify Wonde of the migration of your school’s MIS an appointment will be scheduled to migrate the connection of the new MIS to Wonde.
- Once this appointment is carried out, Wonde School portal admins of schools using Edusync Microsoft will receive an email notifying them that they need to re-match Users and Groups.
- The automated sync, if turned on in the Edusync Microsoft UI, will be turned off automatically and the buttons to automate the sync and calculate an MIS sync summary will be greyed out. You will not have access to these buttons again until you match at least one user.
- You will then need to re-match your Users and Groups.
- Once re-matching is complete, you can re-enable the automated sync or run manual syncs via the Calculate MIS sync summary button again.
- Your school’s settings for Edusync Microsoft will not be lost.
Steps for Edusync Microsoft Administrators to take
Step 1 | Match up your users
The easiest way to do this is to navigate to Tools >> Matching >> Match users within the Edusync Microsoft UI. On this page you will find the predicted matches. You can take any matches with a green prediction strength bar as exact matches. To allow any of the less positive matches through (those marked in red on the last page), click Cancel. Once you have decided on all of the users you’d like to match, click Save matches at the top of the page.
You can search for remaining unmatched users by clicking Manually assign next to a user on the Directory page, provided that user is in one of the organisational units (OUs) you have selected on the Settings page in the Domains and OUs section.
Step 2 | Match up your school’s Year, House and Miscellaneous groups
Navigate to Tools >> Matching >> Match groups in the Edusync Microsoft UI. Use the dropdowns (these also act as search boxes, as the dropdowns are truncated to 30 available groups) to find and select your Microsoft Entra ID groups. Then click Save matches at the top of the page.
Step 3 | Match up your school’s Registration groups and Classes to Microsoft Groups
Navigate to Tools >> Matching >> Match classes in the Edusync Microsoft UI. Use the dropdowns (these also act as search boxes, as the dropdowns are truncated to 30 available groups)to find and select your Microsoft Entra ID groups. Then click Save matches at the top of the page.
You can also get to the class matching page from the setup wizard, which
provides automated predicted matching for Microsoft Entra ID groups, by navigating to sds.wonde.com/wizard/classes
Step 4 | Re-enable your sync on the Directory page
You can re-enable your sync with either the green Enable automated sync button for an automatic sync, or for manual syncs, click the yellow Calculate MIS sync summary button.
