Using peer group analysis, approval for attestation cases can be granted or denied automatically. For example, a peer group might be all identities in the same department. Peer group analysis assumes that these identities require the same products. For example, if the majority of identities belonging to a department have a particular product, assignment to another identity in the department can be approved automatically. This helps to accelerate approval processes.
Peer group analysis can be used during attestation of the following memberships:
- Assignments of system entitlements to user accounts
- Secondary memberships in business roles
All identities that have the same manager or that belong to the same primary or secondary division as the identity linked to the attestation object (= identity to be attested) are grouped together as a peer group.
For more information about peer group analysis, see the One Identity Manager Attestation Administration Guide.

You can perform attestations only for a subset of identities. For example, when attesting all identities would take too long. Samples contain identities that you can use to conduct a sample attestation.
TIP: To use samples in an attestation, assign a sample to the corresponding attestation policy and start the attestation (see Running sample attestations).
