Situation

The identity list is comprised of all identities containing roles, entitlements and policy violations that are part of this certification.

Use the options at the bottom right of the table to export this list to a MicroSoft Excel Worksheet, open the Identity List view, or change the way the entitlement descriptions display. The MicroSoft Excel Worksheet is not connected to Access Governance Suite and actions taken there are not reflected in the product.

Do one of the following:

  • Click on a identity to display the Certification Decisions tab and view detailed identity information.
  • Right-click on a identity and select Delegate to delegate the certification for the entire identity to a different approver.
  • Right-click on any item that is displaying the attention required, or star, icon to handle a revocation challenge or review the decision made by a certifier to whom this item was delegated.
  • Select multiple identities using the selection boxes in the left-most column and select the appropriate action from the Select Bulk Action drop-down list at the bottom of the page. Use the multi-select box at the top of the column to select multiple identities at one time.

The default identity list contains the following information:

Note: The certification pages are configurable for each implementation of Access Governance Suite. Your screen might not display the information in this table.

Selection box

Use the selection boxes to select an identity, or multiple identities, and select the appropriate action from the Select Bulk Action drop-down list at the bottom of the page. A user cannot certify themselves unless self certification is enabled during configuration.

Use the multi-select box at the top of the column to select multiple items at one time.

Note: This column is not displayed if the certification has already been signed-off on, or if you are not the certification owner.

Note: Bulk action is only available if configured for your enterprise.

Note: When you use the selection box to select and approve an identities's access information, all entitlements for that identity are approved for all roles and applications. Policy Violations are not approved.

  • Challenged - a user has challenged the revocation of some access point and that challenge is awaiting your response.

  • Waiting Review - action was taken on a delegated certification request and that action is now awaiting your review.
  • Returned - the certification request for this identity was delegated and returned with no action being taken.
Note: The Waiting Review status is dependent on Access Governance Suite being configured to require reviews of all delegated certification requests.

Select Bulk Action

A list of the actions you can perform on multiple identities at one time.
