Approval task for user creation

[jaisuryan]

Hello Experts,

SAP IDM 7.2 SP9

Requirement: When user creates an Identity in UI, it should go thru approval process, If approved, then user should be written into IDM of entry type MX_PERSON.

What I have implemented: I created a entry type Z_TEMP_USER and corresponding attributes. Then created a approval task and linked to add event for temp entry type. So when user submit requests, user will be written in IDM as temp entry. It triggers the approval task which when approved executes the task to copy the data from temp attributes to MX_PERSON attributes.

Problem: I guess PVO will not be created for add events for entry types. So I'm not sure how to set approvers for the task. Please advise.

If anyone have implemented different approval process for user creation, please advice the strategy.

Kind regards,

Jai

Hello,

I resolved it. I calculated the approvers and set it to custom multivalue attribute of type referral. Then set referral attribute as approver in approval task. If anyone else have any other solution, please share.

Kind regards,

Jai

Hi Jai,

I do have another one: You create a privilege (lets call it Account Privilege for IdM PRIV:IDM:ONLY) and you assign that privilege. Thus you have a PVO that you can base the approval on.

Hi Norman,

Thanks, nice thing. I will assign this priv to temp user and then base approval on it. Cheers.

Kind regards,
