One of the major challenges organizations face in Identity Governance (IG) is the lack of a well-defined approval mechanism for authorizing access to resources and user rights. ADManager Plus' approval based workflow can help you review and approve all IG related operations with a well defined ticketing mechanism and manage approval hierarchies with ease. The following steps will guide you through the process.

1. Navigate to Workflow > Configuration > Business workflow.





2. Enter a suitable Name and Description for the workflow.


​


3. You can customize the different approval levels for your workflow. For example, if you want your workflow to consist of requesters, (2) reviewers and (2) approvers, enable the checkbox against reviewers and approvers. Then select the number of reviewers and approvers as 2 each. You can also add the users you wish to add as reviewers or approvers by clicking the Configure button in the respective section. This page will give you more information about configuring workflow technicians.

Note : You can customize the workflow to associate a particular action or task to a specific reviewer, approver or executor and set notifications to the technicians. Learn more about this here.

4. Click Create Workflow to finish.
