Profile Management at the Attribute Level

You can create admin roles for different administrators who need to read or write different profile attributes. For example, a company may have several employees who perform operations on user profiles, each accessing different attributes. The following figure shows three roles and their associated tasks. Each role has different access to profile attributes.

In this example:

• A Help Desk administrator views user names and addresses and resets user passwords.
• A Human Resources administrator modifies user IDs, user names, addresses, titles, and number of vacation days.
• An IT manager modifies the title of users and views their name and number of vacation days.

Another administrator could handle the creation and maintenance of groups. So that administrator needs a role with group tasks. Whatever roles you have when you log in to Identity Management, a series of tasks appear based on the admin role assigned to your Identity Management account.
