Table 129: Configuration Parameters for Using Request Templates
Configuration parameter Meaning
QER\ITShop\ShoppingCartPattern This configuration parameter specifies whether request templates can be used in the IT Shop.

If you wish to request products in the Web Portal, select the products you want from a service catalog and place them in the cart. The products remain in the cart until you send the request. You can save all the products in your cart or just individual ones in a request template so that you can reuse the products in the cart for future requests. You can add or delete products to request templates at anytime.

To use a request template

  • Set the configuration parameter "QER\ITShop\ShoppingCartPattern" in the Designer.

Request templates can be created in the Web Portal and the Manager. In the following you will find out how to set up request templates with the Manager. For more information, see the One Identity Manager Web Portal User Guide.
