Role Approval Workflow

Hello, 

Can Enterprise Roles have independent workflows attached to them or do all roles have to use a single "Role Add Workflow" in the global configurations? I am a scenario in which a role request should go to a custom group or user vs. a manager. Can this be configured? Thank you in advance!

Thank you for your response. I am confused by the first 2 bullet points as they are both yes and no. How do you assign a custom workflow to a role? Thanks!

Hi @ewalton 

Role workflows are defined in global configuration-> Roles->Roles Add Workflow and Roles Remove Workflow

The workflow selected in the global configuration is applicable to all types of role requests. This will be applicable to enterprise role too.

For more details related to role requests configuration you can refer below links.

Configuring Roles (saviyntcloud.com)

Configuring Role Requests (saviyntcloud.com)

Regarding your question regarding the custom assignment, you can configure that in the workflow and attach that workflow to role access /role remove workflow in global configuration.

But can we have separate workflow for role, in each application?

Hi @Saviynt_learner 

But can we have separate workflow for role, in each application? --> NO

if no then how to filter role request from others in normal workflow - Please refer below. Clarify your use case if it doesn't answer your question.

If you want to filter out who can request Roles in Access Request, you can use Request Roles query in Global configuration->Role Request->Request Roles query.

If you want to differentiate between the workflow of access requests and role requests, it is differentiated as below.

1. Security System- Add Access Workflow --> For Add Access requests.

2. Global configuration--> Roles-->Roles Add workflow --> For Add Access requests.
