Assignment resources

 Identity Management Base Module

Business Roles Module

Use assignment resources to request any number of assignments to hierarchical roles or to delegate responsibilities through the IT Shop. For more information, see Assignment requests.

Software and system roles can also be requested for workdesks. The request's UID_Workdesk is given as additional information here (PersonWantsOrg.UID_WorkdeskOrdered).

Multi-request resources

The IT Shop distinguishes between single or multiple requestable products. Single request products are, for example, software, system roles, or Active Directory groups. These products cannot be requested if they have already been be requested for the same time period.

Furthermore, an employee may need several of one type of company resources, for example, consumables. You can find company resources such as these mapped in One Identity Manager as Multi-request resource or Multi requestable/unsubscribable resources.

Resources

Resources that an employee (workdesk, device) may own just once.

The resources can be requested in the IT Shop just once. The resources are assigned to the employees after approval has been granted. They remain assigned until the request is unsubscribed. You can request them again a later point.

Example: phone, company car.

QERResource

Multi-request resources

Resources that can be requested more than once in the IT Shop. Requests are automatically canceled once approved. The resources are not explicitly assigned to employees.

Example: resource for requesting remote desktop sessions for assets in a PAM system; consumables, such as pens, printing paper.

QERReuse

Multi requestable/unsubscribable resources

Resources that an employee can request more than once in the IT Shop but must return them explicitly once they are no longer needed. The resources are assigned to the employees after approval has been granted. They remain assigned until the request is canceled.

Example: printer, monitor.

Preparing products for requesting

Company resources have to fulfill at least the following prerequisites before you can request them in the Web Portal:

  • The company resource must be labeled with the IT Shop option.

  • A service item must be assigned to the company resource.

  • The company resource must be assigned to a shelf as a product.

  • If the company resource is only assigned to employees using IT Shop requests, the company resource must also be labeled with the Only use in IT Shop option. This means that the company resource cannot be directly assigned to roles outside the IT Shop.

The Entitlements category displays all company resources that can be requested using the IT Shop. This includes software, system entitlements, system roles, account definitions, resources, multi-request resources, and assignment resources if the corresponding modules are installed.

You can prepare the company resources for requesting in the IT Shop if you are an IT Shop administrator and have logged in as role-based. You can assign service items, edit the IT Shop and Only use in IT Shop options and assign the company resources to IT Shop shelves.

  1. In the Manager, select the Permissions category.

  2. Navigate to the results list and select the company resource you want.

  3. Select the Change main data task.

  4. Enable the IT Shop option.

  5. Assign a new service item in the Service item field.

    To add a new service item, click . Copy the name of the company resource as identifier for the service item. Enter the other properties on the service item main data form.
