Assigning business roles to company resources

The default method of assigning employees, devices, and workdesks is indirect assignment. This allocates an employee, a device or a workdesk to business roles. 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 by referencing a business role through a foreign key to the employee, device, and workdesk objects. Primary assignment inheritance can be enable through configuration parameters.

You must assign company resources to business roles 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.

Analyzing role memberships and employee assignments

The Overview of all assignments report is displayed for some objects, such as authorizations, compliance rules, or roles. The report finds all the roles, for example, departments, cost centers, locations, business roles, and IT Shop structures in which there are employees who own the selected base object. In this case, direct as well as indirect base object assignments are included.

Examples
  • If the report is created for a resource, all roles are determined in which there are employees with this resource.
  • If the report is created for a group or another system entitlement, all roles are determined in which there are employees with this group or system entitlement.
  • If the report is created for a compliance rule, all roles are determined in which there are employees who violate this compliance rule.
  • If the report is created for a department, all roles are determined in which employees of the selected department are also members.
  • If the report is created for a business role, all roles are determined in which employees of the selected business role are also members.

To display detailed information about assignments

  • To display the report, select the base object from the navigation or the result list and select the Overview of all assignments report.
  • Click the Used by button in the report toolbar to select the role class for which you want to determine whether roles exist that contain employees with the selected base object.

    All the roles of the selected role class are shown. The color coding of elements identifies the role in which there are employees with the selected base object. The meaning of the report control elements is explained in a separate legend. To access the legend, click the icon in the report's toolbar.

  • Double-click a control to show all child roles belonging to the selected role.
  • By clicking the button in a role's control, you display all employees in the role with the base object.
  • Use the small arrow next to to start a wizard that allows you to bookmark this list of employees for tracking. This creates a new business role to which the employees are assigned.

Setting up IT operating data

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 business roles, departments, locations, or cost centers. An employee is assigned a primary business role, 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. Specify the "Department" property in the IT operating data formatting rule for the account definitions A and B 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.

To define IT operating data

  1. In the Manager, select the Business roles | <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.
