While Identity Manager Home provides a single point of entry to the Identity Manager Roles Based Provisioning Module functionality, the Identity Manager Provisioning Dashboard is a personalized view of each user’s permissions, tasks, and requests. Identity Manager Home links to the appropriate location on each user’s Dashboard.
The Provisioning Dashboard focuses on the following basic areas of functionality:
I want something. If a user needs an item or needs to request an item for other users within the organization, the user can use the Make a Request functionality to request that item. The item can be a piece of equipment like a laptop or something intangible like access to a particular server or application. The user can search for an item by entering all or part of a search term in the Permissions field. If a user wants to request a permission for others users, the user can search for the targeted recipients for the permission in the Recipients field. For information about making requests, see Requesting Permissions.
I need to do something. If a user wants to know what tasks they need to manage, My Approvals shows all of a user’s pending tasks in the Identity Manager system. For information about managing and addressing pending tasks, see Managing Your Tasks.
What do I have? If a user wants to see everything they can currently access, My Access shows a user all of the roles and resources to which they have access and organizes those items into a list. For information about viewing your current permissions, see Viewing Your Permissions.
How did I get it? If a user wants to see a list of past requests as a requester and as a recipient, History shows a user everything they have requested recently, as well as the status of all their pending requests. For information about viewing a user’s request history, see Viewing Your History.
