CA Identity Manager User Console Design Guide › Customizing the User Console

Customizing the User Console

When you create an environment, CA Identity Manager creates a default User Console that you use to manage the environment. The User Console includes tasks and admin roles.

• Tasks are actions performed by CA Identity Manager users. There are two types of tasks:
  • Admin tasks, which you use to manage users, organizations, groups, roles, and tasks.
  • External tasks, which perform functions in business applications, such as passing the user attributes to a reporting application
• Admin roles associate users and privileges to CA Identity Manager or other applications. Roles are made up of tasks. A user who has a role can perform its tasks. Users may have multiple roles. For example, a user may have the roles accountant and employee.

  Admin roles are made up of admin tasks.
