Chief approval team

Sometimes, approval decisions cannot be made for attestation cases because an attestor is not available or does not have access to One Identity Manager tools. To complete these attestations, you can define a chief approval team whose members are authorized to intervene in the approval process at any time.

There is a default application role in One Identity Manager for the chief approval team. Assign this application role to all employees who are authorized to approve, deny, cancel attestations in special cases, or to authorize other attestors. For detailed information about application roles, see the One Identity Manager Authorization and Authentication Guide.
