Scope of Business Logic Task Handlers

A business logic task handler can be either task-specific or global in scope. These types of business logic task handlers are described as follows:

• Task-specific business logic task handlers apply to a particular task or set of tasks. The code is specified directly in the User Console task screen (either inline or by reference) during task screen configuration.

  Task-specific business logic task handlers can be written in Java or JavaScript.

• Global business logic task handlers can apply to any task in the Identity Manager environment. They are useful for corporate policies that must be enforced across many or all tasks.

  Global business logic task handlers can only be written in Java. The compiled Java class is deployed in the environment’s custom directory.
