Displaying my identities

You can display all the identities for which you are responsible.

To display identities

  1. In the menu bar, click Responsibilities > My Responsibilities.

  2. In the navigation, click IdentitiesSystem entitlements.

    This opens the Identities page and displays all the identities that report directly to you.

  3. (Optional) To also display identities that report indirectly to you, deselect the Identities you are directly responsible for option.

  4. (Optional) To display details of an identity, click the identity.

Creating your own identities

You can add new identities for which you are responsible. This function is mainly designed for adding external identities. For example, subcontractors who are not entered in the human resources department. Data from new identities is either transferred completely to the database or existing data is updated and/or augmented. This depends on the system configuration and the import setting from closed systems.

Other properties (such as, memberships, entitlements, and so on) can be defined later during editing.

To create an identity

  1. In the menu bar, click Responsibilities > My Responsibilities.

  2. In the navigation, click IdentitiesSystem entitlements.

  3. On the Identities page, click Create identity.

  4. In the Create identity pane, enter the identity's main data in the respective fields.

    The Web Portal checks whether identities with certain identical properties already exist.

  5. (Optional) Depending on the result of the check, you can display identities with identical properties and adjust the main data of the identities if necessary.

  6. Click Create.

    Saving then checks again whether identities with certain identical properties already exist.

  7. (Optional) If the check finds an identity with identical properties, perform one of the following actions:

    • To create the identity, in the Create Identity with Same Properties dialog, click Yes.

    • To edit the identity and its properties before creating it, in the Create Identity with Same Properties dialog, click No and edit the main data of the identity you want to create.

Comparing my identities

You can compare identities that directly or indirectly report to you, with each other. For example, you can identify missing entitlements for individual identities so that they can be requested again in a targeted manner.

  1. In the menu bar, click Responsibilities > My Responsibilities.

  2. In the navigation, click Identities.

  3. On the Identities page, perform the following:

    • To compare identities that report directly to you, click (Actions) > Compare identities who report directly to you.

    • To compare identities that report directly and indirectly to you, click (Actions) > Compare identities who report directly to you.

  4. In the Specify Parameters pane, perform the following actions:

    1. In the Identities to compare field, click Select.

    2. In the Edit Property pane, select the check boxes next to the identities you want to compare.

    3. Click Apply.

  5. (Optional) To specify how to mark the similarities, in the Specify Parameters pane, perform the following actions:

    1. In the Lower bound [%] yellow field, specify the percentage of similarity required before properties are highlighted in yellow. For example, if you enter a value of 70 here, all the properties that have a similarity of 70% or more will be marked in orange.

    2. In the Lower bound [%] orange, specify the percentage of similarity required before properties are highlighted in orange. For example, if you enter the value 50 here, then all properties that have a similarity of 50% or more will be marked in orange.

  6. (Optional) To specify which object types to include in the comparison, perform the following actions:

    1. In the Select object types field, click Select.

    2. In the Edit Property pane, select the check boxes next to the object types you want to take into account.

    3. Click Apply.

  7. Click Show report.
