User Aliases
A user account may have one or more aliases associated to it that allow other authentication systems (SAP, Windows AD) to verify the user and their group membership. In this scenarios, querying from the User Aliases class in MetaMiner helps reveal those details. The below image shows where this configuration takes place in the Users section of the CMC.
