Limited access to One Identity Manager

NOTE: This function is only available if the module Attestation Module is installed.

User who only has temporary or limited access to Web Portal.can log in through the One Identity Manager. This functionality can be used, for example, if external employees, such as contract workers, should be provided with temporary access to the One Identity Manager. These employee can log in to the Web Portal as new workers. New employee objects are added for them in the One Identity Manager database.

If you make use of this functionality, take note of the following:

  • In One Identity Manager, an employee with the following properties is created:

    • Certification status: New
    • Disabled permanently: Enabled
    • No inheritance: Enabled
  • If the QER | Attestation | UserApproval configuration parameter is set, the new employee is attested automatically.
  • To assign company resources to the employee or to ensure editing permissions in One Identity Manager, implement custom processes.

For detailed information about attestation, see the One Identity Manager Attestation Administration Guide.

NOTE: This function is only available if the module Attestation Module is installed.

Assigning company resources to employees

One Identity Manager uses different assignment types to assign company resources.

  • Indirect assignment

    In the case of indirect assignment of company resources, employees, devices, and workdesks are arranged in departments, cost centers, locations, business roles, or application roles. The total of assigned company resources for an employee, device, or workdesk is calculated from the position within the hierarchies, the direction of inheritance (top-down or bottom-up) and the company resources assigned to these roles. In the Indirect assignment methods a difference between primary and secondary assignment is taken into account.

  • Direct assignment

    Direct assignment of company resources results from the assignment of a company resource to an employee, device, or workdesk, for example. Direct assignment of company resources makes it easier to react to special requirements.

  • Assignment by dynamic roles

    Assignment through dynamic roles is a special case of indirect assignment. Dynamic roles are used to specify role memberships dynamically. Employees, devices, and workdesks are not permanently assigned to a role, just when they fulfill certain conditions. A check is performed regularly to assess which employees, devices, or workdesks fulfill these conditions. The means the role memberships change dynamically. For example, company resources can be assigned dynamically to all employees in a department in this way; if an employee leaves the department they immediately lose the resources assigned to them.

  • Assigning through IT Shop requests

    Assignment through the IT Shop is a special case of indirect assignment. Add employees to a shop as customers so that company resources can be assigned through IT Shop requests. All company resources assigned as product to this shop can be requested by the customers. Requested company resources are assigned to the employees after approval is granted. Role memberships can be requested through the IT Shop as well as company resources.

The following table shows the possible company resources assignments to employees.

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