Setting up IT operating data for departments, cost centers, and locations

To create user accounts with the Full managed manage level, the required IT operating data must be determined. The operating data required to automatically supply an employee with IT resources is shown in the departments, locations, or cost centers. An employee is assigned a primary location, primary department, or primary cost center. The necessary IT operating data is ascertained from these assignments and used in creating the user accounts. Default values are used if valid IT operating data cannot be found over the primary roles.

You can also specify IT operating data directly for a specific account definition.

Example:

Normally, each employee in department A obtains a default user account in the domain A. In addition, certain employees in department A obtain administrative user accounts in the domain A.

Create an account definition A for the default user account of the domain A and an account definition B for the administrative user account of domain A. In the IT operating data mapping rule for the account definitions A and B, specify the Department property in order to determine the valid IT operating data.

Specify the effective IT operating data of department A for the domain A. This IT operating data is used for standard user accounts. In addition, for department A, specify the effective IT operating data of account definition B. This IT operating data is used for administrative user accounts.

For more information, see the One Identity Manager Target System Base Module Administration Guide.

To define IT operating data

  1. In the Manager, select the Organizations > <role class> category.

  2. Select the role in the result list.

  3. Select the Edit IT operating data task.

  4. Click Add and enter the following data.

    • Effects on: Specify an IT operating data application scope. The IT operating data can be used for a target system or a defined account definition.

      To specify an application scope

      1. Click next to the field.

      2. Under Table, select the table that maps the target system for select the TSBAccountDef table or an account definition.

      3. Select the specific target system or account definition under Effects on.

      4. Click OK.

    • Column: Select the user account property for which the value is set.

      In the menu, you can select the columns that use the TSB_ITDataFromOrg script in their template. For more information about this, see the One Identity Manager Target System Base Module Administration Guide.

    • Value: Enter a fixed value to assign to the user account's property.

  5. Save the changes.

Modify IT operating data

If IT operating data changes, you must transfer the changes to the existing user accounts. To do this, templates must be rerun on the affected columns. Before you can run the templates, you can check what effect a change to the IT operating data has on the existing user accounts. You can decide whether the change is transferred to the One Identity Manager database in the case of each affected column in each affected database.

Prerequisites
  • The IT operating data of a department, a cost center, or a location have been changed.

    - OR -

  • The default values in the IT operating data template were modified for an account definition.

NOTE: If the assignment of an employee to a primary department, cost center, or to a primary location changes, the templates are automatically run.

To run the template

  1. In the Manager, select the <target system type> > Basic configuration data > Account definitions > Account definitions category.

  2. Select an account definition in the result list.

  3. Select the Run templates task.

    This displays a list of all user accounts that were created with the selected account definition and whose properties were changed by modifying the IT operating data. That means:

    • Old value: Value of the object property before changing the IT operating data.

    • New value: Value of the object property after changing the IT operating data.

    • Selection: Specifies whether the new value is copied to the user account.

  4. Mark all the object properties in the selection column that will be given the new value.

  5. Click Apply.

    The templates are applied to all selected user accounts and properties.

Assigning employees, devices, and workdesks to departments, cost centers, and locations

Assign employees, devices, and workdesks to departments, cost centers, and locations. Employees, devices, and workdesks can obtain their company resources through these organizations.

To add employees, devices, and workdesks to a hierarchical role

  1. In the Manager, select the Organizations > <role class> category.

  2. Select the role in the result list.

  3. Select the appropriate task.

    • Assign employees

    • Assign devices

    • Assign workdesks

  4. In the Add assignments pane, assign objects.

    TIP: In the Remove assignments pane, you can remove object assignments.

    To remove an assignment

    • Select the object and double-click .
  5. Save the changes.

TIP: Use dynamic roles to assign employees, devices, and workdesks to departments, cost centers, and locations automatically.

Assigning company resources to departments, cost centers, and locations

The default method of assigning employees, devices, and workdesks is indirect assignment. This allocates an employee, a device or a workdesk to departments, cost centers, or locations. The total of assigned company resources for an employee, a device or workdesk is calculated from their position within the hierarchy, the direction of inheritance and the company resources assigned to these roles.

Indirect assignment is divided into:

  • Secondary assignment

    You make a secondary assignment by classifying an employee, a device, or a workdesk within a role hierarchy. Secondary assignment is the default method for assigning and inheriting company resources through roles.

    IMPORTANT: You use role classes to specify whether a secondary assignment of company resources is possible.

    If an employee, device or a workdesk fulfills the requirements of a dynamic role, the object is added dynamically to the corresponding company structure and can obtain company resources through it.

  • Primary assignment

    You make a primary assignment using a department, cost center, or location foreign key reference in employee, device and workdesk objects. Primary assignment inheritance can be enable through configuration parameters.

You must assign company resources to departments, cost centers, or locations so that employees, devices, and workdesks can inherit company resources. The following table shows the possible company resources assignments.

NOTE: Company resources are defined in the One Identity Manager modules and are not available until the modules are installed.
