Displaying extended properties for objects

NOTE: The Manager must be running in expert mode to show object properties.

To show extended object properties

  • Select the object and open the Properties item in the context menu.

    • On General, you can see the object‘s general properties, for example, ID, status, or primary key.

      TIP: The primary key can be copied in different formats. To do this, click the Primary key or the Table relations caption.

    • All the object columns are displayed in a grid on Properties with their values. You can choose between a simple column view and the advanced view with additional data for column definitions.

      Individual properties can be highlighted with an icon.

      To customize the display properties

      • On the Properties tab, select the Property pages icon and set the required display properties.

    • On the Permissions tab, based on the permissions groups, you see what permissions apply to an object. The first entry shows the basic permissions for the table. The permissions for this particular object are displayed beneath that. The other entries show the column permissions.

      TIP: Double-click the table entry, the object entry, or a column entry to display the permissions group from which the permissions were determined.

      Permissions limited by conditions.

    • You can display which change labels the object belongs to on the Change labels tag. Here you can assign a new or an existing change label to the object and its dependent objects. For more information about working with change labels, see the One Identity Manager Operational Guide.

    • On the Export tab you can export the object in One Identity Manager's own transfer format or generate SQL statements.

      To use the export method, users require the Transport_Export program function. To generate the SQL statements, users require the Common_SqlExport program function.

Multiple object edit in the Manager

It is possible to edit more than one object of the same object type at the same time in the Manager. The form tab of the main data form shows the number of selected objects and the object type. Input fields with different values are labeled with the icon. When you edit an input field and save your changes, the change applies to all open objects.

To edit multiple objects at the same time:

  1. Use Shift + selection or Ctrl + selection to select the objects in the result list.

  2. Open the main data form either with Enter, clicking the icon in the result list, or selecting Tasks > Edit main data in the context menu.

Committing data on change conflicts

If two users change the same object at the same time, this can cause conflicts when the object is saved, especially if the same property is changed. In this case, a dialog appears when you save the object. You can use this dialog to view and apply the changes.

All changes to the object that caused a conflict are shown.

To apply your changes:

  • Active the check box in the Apply column for your values that you wish to save.

Working with the Designer

The interfaces of the Manager and Designer have a similar layout. You can find detailed information about the basic features under One Identity Manager tools user interface.

The Designer provides various editors for the One Identity Manager system configuration. The functionality and the mode of operation of the editors depends on the different configuration requirements. When you select an object in the Designer, the available editors are displayed together with the tasks that can be run in the task view.
