You can resolve compliance rule violations that you manage. Rule violations are caused by entitlements, so you have the option to remove entitlements when you want to resolve one.
Entitlement assignments play and important role when editing rule violations. For example, entitlements assigned through a dynamic role cannot be removed.
The following consequences may result from removing entitlements:
Table 24: Removing assigned entitlements

Direct assignment |
Direct assignment is deleted when the entitlement is removed. |

Inherited assignment |
In the case of inherited entitlements, there is an option provided to withdraw role membership from the identity. |
|
Dynamic assignment |
Entitlements that were assigned automatically through a dynamic role cannot be removed. |
|
Assignment by request |
If entitlements were assigned through a request, the request is broken off if the entitlements are removed. |

Primary assignment |
If entitlements were assigned through a primary membership, the identity of the primary membership can be optionally revoked if the entitlements are removed. |
