Functional areas for departments, cost centers, and locations

To analyze rule checks for different areas of your company in the context of identity audit, you can set up functional areas. Functional areas can be assigned to hierarchical roles and service items. You can enter criteria that provide information about risks from rule violations for functional areas and hierarchical roles. To do this, you specify how many rule violations are permitted in a functional area or a role. You can enter separate assessment criteria for each role, such as a risk index or transparency index.

Moreover, functional areas can be replaced by peer group analysis during request approvals or attestation cases.

Example: Use of functional areas

  1. Set up functional areas.

  2. Assign cost centers to the functional areas.

  3. Define assessment criteria for the cost centers.

  4. Specify the number of rule violations allowed for the functional area.

  5. Assign compliance rules required for the analysis to the functional area.

  6. Use the One Identity Manager report function to create a report that prepares the result of rule checking for the functional area by any criteria.

To create or edit a functional area

  1. In the Manager, select the Organizations > Basic configuration data > Functional areas category.
