<div style="direction: ltr;font-family: Tahoma;color: #000000;font-size: 10pt;">I see, thanks for pointing that out!
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Just for the record, what I am trying to setup is something, should we go ahead with midPoint, that's required for us:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>We have about 10k new students each semester and also have about the same number of students that get "offboarded" from some services due to various reasons.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>What we're trying to evaluate is how we could automate such state changes so we can do something like :</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>- 1 month before the start of the semester, all students registered to at least one class will get their account created / activated. A notification message will be sent.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>- 12 months after the end of the last semester where the student had at least one class, the account will be deactivated and a notification message will be sent.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The startDate and endDate are properties we can read from an SQL table (but I'm simulating that with a CSV file for now). I guess we'll have to reconcile at least once a day because that table will have updates to those dates as students use our online
tools to register / unregister themselves to classes. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>We should also have the ability to override those values with other dates like "bannedOn" or "temporaryExtension" :</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The bannedOn date would make any student which has that date as a non-null value be kept inactive for 7 years from that date.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The temporaryExtension date would make any student account active for 12 months from that date, regardless of the endDate imported from SQL.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>So, as you can see, dates are really useful for our use cases. I understand that this was added rather quickly to 2.2. Would you suggest we upgrade our test environment to the latest snapshots and try and follow the development from there on?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Vincent</div>

The time-based mapping constraints were a last-moment addition to version 2.2. It was based on a request from one of our partners that went late in our development cycle. But because it was so important we have added it in the roadmap. However as it was a last-minute
change and it was only required to support this for activation mappings the implementation was really done and tested only for this type of mappings. I would be really surprised it it worked in the object template. However I can explore how much work is needed
to make it work even for object template:<br>

Please watch this jira issue to see how it goes. Also please note that even though I have optimistically set fix version to 2.2.1 I do not promise that it can fit into this release. I have to explore it first. I will have time for that in next few days.<br>
