Abstract: A computer implemented method, data processing system, and computer program product for logical management and provisioning of business applications within the framework of an identity management system. The illustrative embodiments providing an interface layer to map respective attributes, permissions, and resource accounts in a data repository needed to represent access to business applications via a managed service in the identity management system. The illustrative embodiments define user entitlements on a user account associated with the managed service. The illustrative embodiments provision user access to the business applications via the managed service in the identity management system upon user request.

Abstract: A system for synchronizing account names from a plurality of source security systems. In response to coupling a conversion system between the plurality of source security systems and a target security system, identity data from a human resource system and account data from the plurality of local source security systems is loaded into the conversion system. A name resolution rule set is retrieved and a unique account name identification is generated for a set of account names associated with an identity using the name resolution rule set. The set of account names associated with the identity is converted to the unique account name identification to produce a synchronized set of account names associated with the identity. Then, the synchronized set of account names associated with the identity is stored in the target security system.
