Adding Azure Active Directory subscriptions to system roles

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

Use this task to add an Azure Active Directory subscription to system roles. When you assign a system role to an employee, the Azure Active Directory subscription is inherited by all user accounts owned by these employees.

NOTE: Azure Active Directory subscriptions in which the Only use in IT Shop option is set can only be assigned to system roles that also have this option set. For more information, see the One Identity Manager System Roles Administration Guide.

TIP: You can combine the account definition for creating the Azure Active Directory user account and the Azure Active Directory subscription that will be used into one system role. In this way, the employee automatically obtains a user account and an Azure Active Directory subscription.

An employee can obtain this system role directly through departments, cost centers, locations, or business roles, or an IT Shop request.

Adding Azure Active Directory subscriptions automatically to the IT Shop

The following steps can be used to automatically add Azure Active Directory subscriptions to the IT Shop. Synchronization ensures that the Azure Active Directory subscriptions are added to the IT Shop. If necessary, you can manually start synchronization with the Synchronization Editor. New Azure Active Directory subscriptions created in One Identity Manager also are added automatically to the IT Shop.

To add Azure Active Directory subscriptions automatically to the IT Shop

In the Designer, set the QER | ITShop | AutoPublish | AADSubSku configuration parameter.
In order not to add Azure Active Directory subscriptions to the IT Shop automatically, in the Designer, set the QER | ITShop | AutoPublish | AADSubSku | ExcludeList configuration parameter.

This configuration parameter contains a listing of all Azure Active Directory subscriptions that should not be allocated to the IT Shop automatically. You can extend this list if required. To do this, enter the name of the subscription in the configuration parameter. Names are listed in a pipe (|) delimited list. Regular expressions are supported.
Compile the database.

The Azure Active Directory subscriptions are added automatically to the IT Shop from now on.

The following steps are run to add an Azure Active Directory subscription to the IT Shop.

A service item is determined for the Azure Active Directory subscription.

The service item is tested for each Azure Active Directory subscription and modified if necessary. The name of the service item corresponds to the name of the Azure Active Directory subscription.
- The service item is modified for Azure Active Directory subscriptions with service items.
- Azure Active Directory subscriptions without service items are allocated new service items.
The service item is assigned to the Azure Active Directory subscriptions default service category.
An application role for product owners is determined and assigned to the service item.

Product owners can approve requests for these Azure Active Directory subscriptions. The default product owner is the Azure Active Directory subscription's owner.

NOTE: The application role for the product owner must be added under the Request & Fulfillment | IT Shop | Product owner application role.
- If the owner of the Azure Active Directory subscription is already a member of an application role for product owners, this application role is assigned to the service item. Therefore, all members of this application role become product owners of the Azure Active Directory subscription.
- If the owner of the Azure Active Directory subscription is not yet a member of an application role for product owners, a new application role is created. The name of the application corresponds to the name of the owner.
  - If the owner is a user account, the user account's employee is added to the application role.
  - If it is a group of owners, the employees of all this group's user accounts are added to the application role.
The Azure Active Directory subscription is labeled with the IT Shop option and assigned to the Azure Active Directory subscriptions IT Shop shelf in the Identity & Access Lifecycle shop.

Then the shop customers use the Web Portal to request the Azure Active Directory subscription.

NOTE: If an Azure Active Directory subscription is irrevocably deleted from the One Identity Manager database, the associated service item is also deleted.

For more information about configuring the One Identity Manager IT Shop Administration Guide, see the IT Shop. For more information about requesting access requests in the Web Portal, see the One Identity Manager Web Portal User Guide.
