Product owners

Employees who are approvers in approval processes for requesting service items can be assigned to these service items. To do this, assign a service item or a service category to an application for Product owners. Assign employees to this application role who are authorized to approve requests in the IT Shop and to edit service item or service category main data.

A default application role for product owners is available in One Identity Manager. You may create other application roles as required. For detailed information about application roles, see the One Identity Manager Authorization and Authentication Guide.

Setting up IT Shop structures

Depending on the company structure, you can optionally define shopping centers for your IT Shop solution where several shops can be bought together under one roof. Always add the shopping center to the top level of the IT Shop. Shopping centers may not be hierarchical.

Each shop contains a number of shelves that the customer can request products from. You can add a shop to the top level of the IT Shop or under a shopping center. Shops may not be hierarchical.

There are various products available for request on shelves. Shelves are set up under each shop.

IMPORTANT:If a shop contains a large number of customers, the calculations in the IT Shop can cause a heavy load on the DBQueue Processor and therefore on the database server, as well.

Structure the IT Shop so that no more than 30,000 customers can make requests in each shop. If necessary, set up your own shopping center with several shops and customer nodes.
