Refresh Logical Accounts

The Refresh Logical Accounts task type is used to refresh composite accounts for all identities that could, potentially, have a logical account on the applications selected. This refresh occurs without performing aggregation on the logical or tiered applications containing the links.

A logical account rule is run on each identity that has a logical link, or a link on the primary tier application of the logical application. If no primary tier has been defined, the rule is run on all identities that have an account on any of the tier applications.

The information scanned and updated is determined by the following criteria when the task is created or edited. You can use any combination of options to build a task.
