For more information about preparing service plans for requesting through the IT Shop, see the One Identity Manager IT Shop Administration Guide.

Assigning extended properties to disabled Azure Active Directory service plans

Extended properties are meta objects, such as operating codes, cost codes, or cost accounting areas that cannot be mapped directly in One Identity Manager.

For more information about using extended properties, see the One Identity Manager Identity Management Base Module Administration Guide.

To specify extended properties for a disabled Azure Active Directory service plan

In the Manager, select the Azure Active Directory > Disabled service plans category.
Select the disabled service plan from the result list.
Select Assign extended properties.
In the Add assignments pane, assign extended properties.
TIP: In the Remove assignments pane, you can remove assigned extended properties.

To remove an assignment

Azure Active Directory app registrations and Azure Active Directory service principals

When an application is registered in an Azure Active Directory tenant, it creates an associated Azure Active Directory service principal. There are so-called app roles defined for app registrations. Azure Active Directory users, Azure Active Directory groups, or Azure Active Directory service principals can use app roles to provide permissions or functions for the application.

For more information about integrating applications in Azure Active Directory, see the Azure Active Directory documentation from Microsoft.

Information about Azure Active Directory app registrations, Azure Active Directory service principals, and app roles within an Azure Active Directory tenant is loaded into One Identity Manager during synchronization.

If an Azure Active Directory application is used in an Azure Active Directory tenant that is registered in another Azure Active Directory tenant, only the Azure Active Directory service principal and not the Azure Active Directory app registration is loaded into One Identity Manager.

You cannot create new Azure Active Directory app registrations, Azure Active Directory service principals, and app roles in One Identity Manager but you can specify owners of app registrations and service principals and create or delete app roles in One Identity Manager.
