    - OR -

    In the Manager, select the IT Shop > Service catalog category.

Entering product-specific request properties

Requests can be given additional information though product-specific request properties such as the specific details of a product, its size, or color. A request property gathers all additional features together that can be given when requesting a product.

Define a request parameter for each feature of a request property. Parameters can be marked as mandatory if a value must be entered when they are requested.

To be able to use request properties, you assign them to service items or service categories. When a product is requested, the parameters of this request property are displayed. If a service item does not have a request property assigned to it, the service category's request property is used. If a service category does not have a request property assigned to it, the parent service category's request property applies.

NOTE: The definition of request properties was redesigned with One Identity Manager version 8.2. Now you can define a lot of additional information for request parameters. This makes the implementation of request properties more flexible. The previous solution can still be used. When you add a new request property, you specify whether you want to use the obsolete or the new style definition.

In the Web Designer Web Portal, only the request properties with an obsoleted definition can be used. Request properties with the new style definition are not available here.
