To obtain an overview of a group
When groups are assigned to user accounts an employee may obtain two or more groups, which are not permitted in this combination. To prevent this, you can declare mutually exclusive groups. To do this, you specify which of the two groups should apply to the user accounts if both are assigned.
It is possible to assign an excluded group at any time either directly, indirectly, or with an IT Shop request. One Identity Manager determines whether the assignment is effective.
NOTE:
The effectiveness of the assignments is mapped in the

Only the group C assignment is in effect for Clara Harris. It is published in the target system. If Clara Harris leaves the "control group" business role at a later date, group B also takes effect.
The groups A and C are in effect for Jenny Basset because the groups are not defined as mutually exclusive. If this should not be allowed, define further exclusion for group C.

The QER | Structures | Inherite | GroupExclusion configuration parameter is set.
In the Designer, set the configuration parameter and compile the database.
NOTE: If you disable the configuration parameter at a later date, model components and scripts that are not longer required, are disabled. SQL procedures and triggers are still carried out. For more information about the behavior of preprocessor relevant configuration parameters and conditional compiling, see the One Identity Manager Configuration Guide.
Mutually exclusive groups belong to the same site collection.
To exclude a group
In the Manager, select the SharePoint > Groups category.
Select a group in the result list.
Select the Exclude groups task.
In the Add assignments pane, assign the groups that are mutually exclusive to the selected group.
- OR -
In the Remove assignments pane, remove the groups that are no longer mutually exclusive.
Every user account can be assigned to one or more categories. Each group can also be assigned to one or more categories. The group is inherited by the user account when at least one user account category items matches an assigned group. The group is also inherited by the user account if the group or the user account is not put into categories.
NOTE: Inheritance through categories is only taken into account when groups are assigned indirectly through hierarchical roles. Categories are not taken into account when groups are directly assigned to user accounts.
Category item | Categories for user accounts | Categories for groups |
---|---|---|
1 | Default user | Default permissions |
2 | System users | System user permissions |
3 | System administrator | System administrator permissions |
