Assignment requests with standard products are automatically approved through self-service. If assignment requests are going to be approved by an approval supervisor, assign a suitable approval policy to the default assignment resource. This means that assignment requests also go through the defined approval process.
To approve assignment requests through an approver
-
Assign separate approval policies to the default assignment resources service items.
- OR -
-
Assign any approval policy to the Identity Lifecycle shelf.
Sometimes assignment requests should be subject to various approval processes depending on the object requested. For example, a department manager should approve department assignment, but department membership should be approved by the employee’s manager. You can define assignment resources to do this. You can assign these assignment resources to any shelf in your IT Shop.
