Default approval workflows

One Identity Manager provides approval workflows by default. These approval workflows are used in the Identity & Access Lifecycle shop approval processes. Each default approval workflow is linked to a default approval policy. You can edit different properties of the approval step, for example, to configure notifications in the request process.

To edit default approval workflows

  • In the Manager, select the IT Shop | Basic configuration data | Approval workflows | Predefined category.

Determining the effective approval policies

You can apply approval policies to different IT Shop structures and service items. If you have several approval policies within your IT Shop, which policy is to be used is based on the rules that are specified.

Effective approval policies are defined in the following way:

  1. The effective approval policy is the one assigned to the requested service item.

  2. If there is no approval policy assigned to the service item, the approval policy from the service category is used.

  3. If there is no approval policy assigned to the service item, the approval policy assigned to the requested product’s shelf is used.

  4. If there is no approval policy assigned to the shelf, one of the approval policies assigned to the shop is used.

  5. If there is no approval policy assigned to the shop, one of the approval policies assigned to the shopping center is used.

An approval policy found by one of these methods is applied under the following conditions:

  • The approval policy is not assigned a role type.

    - OR -

  • The assigned role type corresponds to the shelf role type.

If more several effective approval policies are identified by the rules, the effective approval policy is determined by the following criteria (in the given order).

  1. The approval policy has the highest priority (alphanumeric sequence).

  2. The approval policy has the lowest number of approval steps.

  3. The first approval policy found is taken.

If no approval policy can be found, a request cannot be started. If no approver can be determined for one level of an approval policy, the request can be neither approved nor denied. Pending requests are rejected and closed. Canceled products remain assigned. Products for renewal remain assigned until the valid until date is reached.

NOTE: If an approval workflow for pending requests changes, you must decide how to proceed with these requests. Configuration parameters are used to define the desired procedure.

For more information, see Changing approval workflows of pending requests.

Selecting responsible approvers

One Identity Manager can make approvals automatically in an approval process or through approvers. An approver is an employee or a group of employees who can grant or deny approval for a request (renewal or cancelation) within an approval process. It takes several approval procedures to grant or deny approval. You specify in the approval step which approval procedure should be used.

If several people are determined to be approvers by an approval procedure, the number given in the approval step specifies how many people must approve the step. Only then is the request presented to the approvers in the next approval level. The request is aborted if an approver cannot be found for an approval step.

One Identity Manager provides approval procedures by default. You can also define your own approval procedures.

The DBQueue Processor calculates which employee is authorized as an approver and in which approval level. Take into account the special cases for each approval procedure when setting up the approval workflows to determine those authorized to grant approval.

The following approval procedures are defined to select the responsible approvers by default.
