Also you can add users company id or some alphabet i Employee No. e.g. A123456 where 123456 is user’s Employee No. and is prefixed with letter A which can be company specific.
User should never be able to change uid as that should be consistent across organization.

Subject: RE: Network UserID Creation/Change

Please be more specific when you say Strong User Id, bacouse if you use Strong one of the best practice is to use Tokens (Hardware).

Answer: We are currently in a manual creation mode for UserIDs. I’d like to see us go to a token but we may need to take an intermediate step first by manually creating strong IDs. Suggestions?
