Resources
Resources are found in in IT resources and non-IT resources. Non-IT resources help an employee's work efficiency, for example, mobile phones, desks, company cars, or keys. You can assign resources directly to an employee or through classification into hierarchical roles. Similarly, you can resources request for an employee through the IT Shop. Resources are divided up from a functional point of view.
- Resources
- Multi-request resources
- Multi-requestable/unsubscribable resources
An employee can own resources (workstation, device) just once. They can be requested exactly once in the IT Shop. The resources are assigned to the employees after approval has been granted. They remain assigned until the request is canceled. You can request them again a later point. Examples are telephones or company cars.
All resources are displayed in a list in Auditing that you select through Resources in the Auditing menu. You can select an employee from here to view more details about their resources.
After you have selected a resource, you can gather more information through various views. You will know many of the views already from My Responsibilities.

System entitlements
In Auditing, you can view the entitlements assigned to an employee for the particular target system type that they manage. Each target system type has its own tile in the Auditing view.
Auditing of system entitlements is the same for all target system types and is therefore described here for all of them together.
System entitlements map the objects that control access to target system resources in the target systems. A user account obtains the required permissions for accessing target system resources through its memberships in system entitlements. The following system entitlements are displayed in the Auditing menu, for example.
- Active Directory groups
