Hi All,
For one of our process we need to save person's firstname lastname for reporting and record history. These person's details we need get from an LDAP. From the list of persons data user will select a single name and save it in the process variable or CDT field. Here we only need to store person's firstname lastname and this person is not involved in the process hence its just for information.
For above scenario I was thinking to use custom picker component which will be filled up from a source lets call it PersonDataTable. This data source PersonDataTable can be updated by querying LDAP directory after a particular interval using a timer process to keep it in synch with LDAP directory. By doing this we will not query LDAP directory every time so custom picker will be much responsive.
Please let me know if above implementation approach is correct or I should be doing this another way.

I think this is a good way. Querying LDAP all the time is slower than database. How many users do you have. If the number is large (>1000) you have to think of how to implement the import. Building a loop in the process is not very speedy.
