Linking user account to employees

The central component of One Identity Manager is to map employees and their master data with permissions through which they have control over different target systems. For this purpose, information about user accounts and permissions can be read from the target system into the One Identity Manager database and linked to employees. This gives an overview of the permissions for each employees in all of the connected target systems. One Identity Manager provides the possibility to manage user accounts and their permissions. You can provision modifications in the target systems. Employees are supplied with the necessary permissions in the connected target systems according to their function in the company. Regular synchronization keeps data consistent between target systems and the One Identity Manager database. Because requirements vary between companies, One Identity Manager offers different methods for supplying user accounts to employees.

One Identity Manager supports the following method for linking employees and their user accounts.

  • Employees can automatically obtain their user accounts using account definitions. If an employee does not yet have a user account in Epic, a new user account is created. This is done by assigning account definitions to an employee using the integrated inheritance mechanism and subsequent process handling. When you manage user accounts through account definitions, you can specify the way user accounts behave when employees are enabled or deleted.
  • When user accounts are inserted, they can be automatically assigned to an existing employee or a new employee can be created if necessary. In the process, the employee master data is created on the basis of existing user account master data. This mechanism can be implemented if a new user account is created manually or by synchronization. Define criteria for finding employees for automatic employee assignment
  • Employees and user accounts can be entered manually and assigned to each other.

Editing master data for user account

A user account can be linked to an employee in One Identity Manager. You can also manage user accounts separately from employees.

NOTE:

  • It is recommended to use account definitions to set up user accounts for company employees. In this case, some of the master data described in the following is mapped through templates from employee master data.
  • If employees are to obtain their user accounts through account definitions, the employees must own a central user account and obtain their IT operating data through assignment to a primary department, a primary location or a primary cost center.
