Changing the certification status of identities

NOTE: This function is only available if the Attestation Module is installed.

Identity's certification status is set by default through certification and recertification procedures. For more information, see the One Identity Manager Attestation Administration Guide.

You can manually change an identity's certification status if it is necessary to do so outside the regular recertification schedule.

Prerequisite

  • The QER | Attestation | UserApproval configuration parameter is set.

To change an identity's certification status manually

  1. To change the certification status of an active identity, in the Manager, select the Identities > Identities. category.

    - OR -

    To change the certification status of a permanently deactivated identity, in the Manager, select the Identities > Inactive identities category.

  2. Select the identity in the result list.

  3. Select the Change certification status task.

  4. Select the certification status you want from the Certification status menu.

  5. Click OK to accept the changes.

    The new certification status for the identity is displayed on the form.

    NOTE: The Permanently deactivated option is updated depending on the certification status. If an identity's certification status is set to Denied manually or as a result of attestation, the identity is immediately deactivated permanently. If the identity's certification status is changed to Certified, the identity is activated again.

Displaying and deleting identities' Webauthn security keys

Determining the language for identities

In order for email notifications within the request process in the IT Shop or during attestation to be sent in the recipients language, the identity's language has to be determined.

  • States and countries and their languages already exist in the One Identity Manager default installation. Verify and edit this information in the Designer. For more information, see the One Identity Manager Configuration Guide.

  • Add the country and state of the primary location to the primary department, the primary cost center, the primary business role, or directly to the identity. To map special cases, you can also add the language directly to the location, department, cost center, or identity.

An identity’s language is determined in the following order:

  1. Language that is directly assigned to the identity.

  2. Language of the identity's state.

  3. Language of the identity's country.

  4. Language directly assigned to the identity's location.

  5. Language of the primary location's state.

  6. Language of the primary location's country.

  7. Language directly assigned to the identity's primary department.

  8. Language of the primary department's state.

  9. Language of the primary department's country.

  10. Language of the primary department's country.

  11. Language of the primary cost center's state.

  12. Language of the primary cost center's country.

  13. Language directly assigned to an identity's primary business role

  14. Language of the primary business role's state.

  15. Language of the primary business role's country.

  16. Fallback, in case the language could not be determined with this sequence:

    1. Language from the Common | MailNotification | DefaultCulture configuration parameter.

    2. Language en-US.
