Can process automations query Active Directory...   We have some information in Active Directory that we need to pull into Lawson and I was hoping to have process flow query the Active Directory but I was informed that Active Directory does not store in an SQL database...

Anyone know?

Yes Shane, you can.
'For example:
ldapsearch -D cn=$admin -w $admin-password -h $tds_host -p 389 -b "ou=resources,o=lwsnrmdata,o=lwsn,dc=genesishealth" cn=10002019 zzlwsnattrRole

Will return every Role that user 10002019 has been assigned.'

This has been shared in detail in this post.

For an Oracle database, you could use DBMS_LDAP to write a stored procedure, which could be called from IPA. (http://www.oracle-base.co...p-from-plsql-9i.php)

I would assume there's something similar for SQL Server.
