Prerequisites for indirect assignments of groups and system entitlements to user accounts

Indirect assignment places identities, groups, and system entitlements into hierarchical roles, such as departments, cost centers, locations, or business roles. When assigning groups and system entitlements indirectly, check the following settings and modify them if necessary.

  1. Identity, group, and system entitlement assignment is permitted for role classes (department, cost center, location, or business roles).

    For more information, see the One Identity Manager Identity Management Base Module Administration Guide.

    ClosedAllow assignments to role classes of departments, cost centers, locations, or roles

  2. Settings for assigning groups and system entitlements to user accounts.

    • The user account is linked to an identity.

    • The options Groups can be inherited, System entitlements 1 can be inherited, System entitlements 1 can be inherited, System entitlements 1 can be inherited are set on the user account.

    • Depending on the target system type configuration, groups and system entitlements can only be assigned to either user accounts that belong to the same target system or to user accounts that belong to different target systems. For more information, see Target system types for custom target systems.

NOTE: There are other configuration settings that play a role when company resources are inherited through departments, cost centers, locations, and business roles. For example, role inheritance might be blocked or inheritance of identities not allowed. For more information about the basic principles for assigning company resources, see the One Identity Manager Identity Management Base Module Administration Guide.
