Enterprise Role Nesting

[shibinvpkvr]

Hi,

Can we add multi level parent-child relationship for enterprise roles in Saviynt? Is there any limit for this? We have Role1 through Role4 and Role2 is child of Role1, Role3 is child of Role2 and Role4 is child of Role3. When we assign Role1 to a user will that assign all child roles as well? Please note that all roles are Enterprise Roles. 

Thanks

1-1 is working as expected. You can have depth but 1-1 having some known issues

@rushikeshvartak do you know what are these known issues?

Those are related to assignedfromroles and v5.5 you can validate in latest version.

example keeping child role requeatable as well as main role etc

Thanks. We have a requirement to implement multi level roles. This can be 5-6 levels. Wanted to see if the Roles Nesting is effective for this case or its better to assign the roles separately without nesting. If Role nesting is effective then we just need to assign the top level role to the user. Otherwise we need to assign all level roles separately.

You can test but make sure child does not requwstable directly

Ideally when you assign parent role, it should assign child role also. We have implemented one level

Parent Role -> Profile1 and that parent role (Profile1) had multiple child roles (ChildProfile1 , Childprofile2) mapped. All of these are enterprise roles.

In this case when user is assigned Profile1 , by default both the childprofile and its associated entitlement gets assigned to the user.

Thanks
