Delegations

Role assignment and responsibilities can be temporarily delegated to others. Thereby, a distinction is made between single delegations and deputizing.

  • Deputize: Delegate all your responsibilities for a defined area to a deputy. The following areas can be selected:

    • Approval authorization for requests

      Once an employee is determined as the approver for requests, their deputy is added as an additional approver.

    • Exception approval requests violate the rules

      Once an employee is determined as the exception approver for requests, their deputy is added as an additional exception approver.

    • Approval authorization in attestation cases

      Once an employee is determined as the attestor, their deputy is added as an additional attestor.

    • Employee manager

      An employee manager's deputy can also approve managerial tasks. For example, a deputy can initiate requests for employees.

    • Manager of all roles of a role class

      The deputy of a hierarchical roles manager can also approve all managerial tasks. For example, a deputy can initiate assignment requests for a business role.

      You can delegate responsibility for the following role classes:

      • Departments

      • Cost centers

      • Locations

      • Selected business roles

      • IT Shop structures (owner)

    Example: During their leave, user 1 delegates their responsibilities as manager of business role with the "Projects 2222" role class and approval authorization for requests to their deputy, user 2.

    • A deputy, unlike single delegation, cannot be subdelegated.

    • An employee who is connected as a main or sub-identity cannot become a delegate nor can deactivated employees.

  • Single delegation: Delegate your responsibility for a specific role or your memberships in a specific business or application role to any given employee.

    Example: User 1 delegates their membership in the "Project 2222-A" business role to user 2.

    • Single delegations can be subdelegated.

Delegations are automatically approved after a compliance check. They can be canceled and deleted. For more information about delegating tasks, see the One Identity Manager Web Portal User Guide.

Delegations are revoked when the valid-until date is exceeded or the delegate is deleted from the customer node.

In the default installation, all active One Identity Manager database employees are customers of the Identity & Access Lifecycle shop. This allows all enabled employees to delegate responsibilities.

Preparing single delegations

Single delegations temporarily assign responsibilities for a specific role or memberships in a specific business or application role to any employee. This employee may subdelegate responsibility or membership as needed.

To run single delegation in One Identity Manager

  • In the Designer, set the QER | ITShop | Delegation configuration parameter.

    If you disable the configuration parameter at a later date, model components and scripts that are not longer required, are disabled. SQL procedures and triggers are still carried out. For more information about the behavior of preprocessor relevant configuration parameters and conditional compiling, see the One Identity Manager Configuration Guide.

The following objects in the default installation can be delegated.

  • Responsibilities for:

    • Departments

    • Cost centers

    • Locations

    • Business roles

    • Employees

    • IT Shop Structures (owner)

  • Membership in:

    • Business roles

    • Application roles

TIP: Specify the role classes associated to business roles for which memberships can be delegated. This option is available when the Business Roles Module is installed.

To permit single delegation of a role class

  1. In the Manager, select the Business roles > Basic configuration data > Role classes category.

  2. Select the role class in the result list.

  3. Select the Change main data task.

  4. Set Delegable.

  5. Save the changes.

Use the Web Portal to delegate roles or responsibilities. For more information, see the One Identity Manager Web Portal User Guide and the One Identity Manager Business Roles Administration Guide.
