In addition to the User Application user interface used by Identity Manager customers, you can now use an iOS app or Android device that allows Identity Manager users to remotely approve or deny requests through the Roles Based Provisioning Module for Identity Manager.
Once you install and configure the Approvals app, you can see the same approval tasks in the app that you would normally see in the User Application interface. All changes are synchronized between the Approvals app and the User Application.
You can also work in offline mode when disconnected from the Identity Manager Roles Based Provisioning Module server, and the Approvals app will automatically synchronize any changes once connectivity is restored.
This appendix provides information about installing and using the new Approvals app. For information about how Identity Manager administrators can configure their environment to allow users to use the app, see Configuring the Identity Manager Approvals App
in the NetIQ Identity Manager User Application: Administration Guide.
