Hey Carey,
We are not making any training assignments via our DMS-LMS Integration. Our integration only produces flat files to be fed through the standard SuccessFactors Connectors. At the present, I don’t believe that there is a standard Connector which makes training assignments. In order to do this, the oData APIs would have to be utilized. There is an API which is designed to make training assignments, but our business did not identify making training assignments with the integration as a requirement. All training assignments for our company are made within the LMS application itself by admins.
In regards to the program you helped implement for a customer, I’d be very interested in learning more about it. Right now, all of our DMS document training content is housed on DMS web servers within our firewall. This presents an issue for end users trying to access content on the mobile application or on a personal PC outside of our company’s firewall. We don’t have an issue with this setup internally, nor do we have a problem setting up the AICC content wrapper on every document training. In the long run though, we are looking at ways to make the content accessible outside of our firewall.
One idea was to place a copy of the content on iContent, but there were some hurdles to doing this. One of the biggest hurdles was automating the cleanup of older document content on iContent. This is something that I’d be interested in exploring further to learn how this was accomplished.
