Create an Admin Task

If the predefined admin tasks in CA ControlMinder Enterprise Management are not suitable for your organization requirements, you can create an admin task.

Important! CA ControlMinder Enterprise Management does not display the Create Admin Task option by default. To enable the option you must modify the System Manager Admin role and add the Create Admin Role task to the Users and Groups menu from the Tasks tab. Log out and log in to CA ControlMinder Enterprise Management for the change to take effect.

You can use the Create Admin Task option to create a Create Privileged Account Request task only. CA ControlMinder Enterprise Management does not support any other types of Admin tasks.

Note: After you upgrade CA ControlMinder you must recreate the Admin task in CA ControlMinder Enterprise Management. Contact CA Support for assistance.
