1. A method of automatically enrolling a user who is already enrolled into a first computer application into a second computer application for which the user is not yet enrolled, comprising:
- retrieving an enrollment credential correlated to the user'"'"'s enrollment in the first computer application;
retrieving a capture credential correlated to the user;
determining if the capture credential matches the retrieved enrollment credential within predetermined parameters; and
if there is a match of the capture credential and the retrieved enrollment credential, storing the retrieved enrollment credential as correlated to the user'"'"'s enrollment in the second computer application, whereby to enroll the user into the second application.

Abstract
An apparatus, method and program product allow a user (100) who is authenticated (84) in one application to enroll in a different application (95) without having to accomplish conventional enrollment processes. The enrollment credential of the first application (84) is automatically transferred to the second application (95) as the new or updated enrollment credential for the second application (95).

1. A method of automatically enrolling a user who is already enrolled into a first computer application into a second computer application for which the user is not yet enrolled, comprising:
-
retrieving an enrollment credential correlated to the user'"'"'s enrollment in the first computer application;
retrieving a capture credential correlated to the user;
determining if the capture credential matches the retrieved enrollment credential within predetermined parameters; and
if there is a match of the capture credential and the retrieved enrollment credential, storing the retrieved enrollment credential as correlated to the user'"'"'s enrollment in the second computer application, whereby to enroll the user into the second application. - View Dependent Claims (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27)

28. A method of automatically enrolling a user who is already biometrically enrolled in a first computer application into a second computer application for which the user is not yet biometrically enrolled, comprising:
-
retrieving an enrollment BIR correlated to the user'"'"'s enrollment in the first computer application;
receiving a capture BIR submitted by the user;
determining if the capture BIR matches the retrieved enrollment BIR within predetermined parameters; and
if there is a match of the capture BIR and the retrieved enrollment BIR, storing the retrieved enrollment BIR as correlated to the user'"'"'s enrollment in the second computer application, whereby to enroll the user into the second application.

29. A method of automatically updating an enrollment credential of a first application in response to the user'"'"'s establishing an enrollment credential for a second application, comprising:
-
storing a retrieved enrollment credential as correlated to the user'"'"'s enrollment in the second application;
determining if the retrieved enrollment credential is appropriate for use in the user'"'"'s enrollment into the first application;
if the retrieved enrollment credential is determined to be appropriate, storing the retrieved enrollment credential as correlated to the user'"'"'s enrollment into the first application, whereby to update the enrollment credential of the first application. - View Dependent Claims (30, 31, 32, 33, 34)

35. An apparatus, comprising:
-
a controller having access to first and second computer applications; and
program code configured to execute on the controller and to retrieve an enrollment credential correlated to a user'"'"'s enrollment in the first computer application;
the program code further configured to retrieve a capture credential correlated to the user and to determine if the capture credential matches the retrieved enrollment credential within predetermined parameters, and if there is a match of the capture credential and the retrieved enrollment credential, the program code is further configured to store the retrieved enrollment credential as correlated to the user'"'"'s enrollment in the second computer application, whereby to enroll the user into the second application. - View Dependent Claims (36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54)
