Selecting attestors

One Identity Manager can make approvals automatically in an attestation procedure or through attestors. An attestor is an employee or a group of employees who can grant or deny an attestation case within an attestation procedure. It takes several approval procedures to grant or deny approval. You specify in the approval step which approval procedure should be used.

If several people are determined to be approvers by an approval procedure, the number given in the approval step specifies how many people must approve the step. A request can only be passed up to next level afterwards. The attestation procedure is canceled if an approver cannot be found for an approval step.

One Identity Manager provides approval procedures by default. You can also define your own approval procedures.

The DBQueue Processor calculates which employee is authorized as an approver and in which approval level. Take into account the special cases for each approval procedure when setting up the approval workflows to determine those authorized to grant approval.

Default approval procedures

To display default approval procedures

  • Select the Attestation > Basic configuration data > Approval procedures > Predefined category.

Using attestation policies to find attestors

Use the AS approval procedure if you want to fix attestors for any object to an attestation policy. This approval procedure finds all employees that are assigned to the attestation procedure as approvers.

Use this procedure to allow any objects to be attested by any of the specified employees. These employees must be assigned to the attestation policy as approvers. The attestor can also be entered when you create attestation policies in the Web Portal. For detailed information, see One Identity Manager Web Designer Web Portal User Guide.

Using roles of employees to be attested to find attestors

Installed modules:

Business Roles Module (for approval procedure AO).

If you want to attest company resource assignments to employees or their requests, use the AD, AL, AO, or AP approval procedures. The attestors found are members of the Attestor application role.

Attestation objects are employees (Person table) or request recipients (PersonWantsOrg table). These approval procedures determine the role (department, location, business role, cost center) for each attestation object to which the attestation object is primarily assigned. If the primarily assigned role is not directly assigned an attestor, the approval procedure finds the attestator's parents roles. If still no attestor can be determined, the attestation case is presented to the attestor of the associated role class for approval.

NOTE: When attestors are found using the AO approval procedure and when "bottom-up" inheritance is defined for business roles, note the following:

  • If there is no attestor given for the primary business role, attestors are taken from the child business role.
