Use case:
We get a file on daily basis containing accounts of a directory. This file is automatically loaded into db table from where I am collecting it into IGL.
The problem:
I am checking the directory's accounts tab. For orphan accounts the "created on" attribute is set but "first seem on" is blank. Accounts mapped to users have "created on" and also "first seen on" date set but "first seen on" is an earlier date.
So I am confused. Can somebody explain me the concept of "Created On" and "First Seen On"? What does it mean if an account's "created on" attribute is later date then "first seen on attribute"?
This First Seen On date values is an attribute of the User->Account Relationship, not an attribute of the Account itself. This is why it will be blank on an orphaned account. It can be read as the account user was first seen on this date, though I agree it is a bit confusing.
