User-defined Custom Attributes for Roles

CA IdentityMinder supports user-defined custom attributes that allow you to specify additional information about roles. You can use this information to filter roles in your organization. For example, a corporate environment may have more than a thousand roles. That organization can specify additional information, such as business unit or geographical location, for each role. Administrators can then use that information to facilitate role searches.

You can use custom attributes in the Create, Modify, and View tasks for the following roles:

• Admin Roles
• Provisioning Roles
• Access Roles

To configure custom attributes for roles, you complete the following high-level steps:

1. Add support for custom attributes to the profile tab for the tasks that create, modify, or view admin roles, provisioning roles, or access roles.
2. Configure search and list screens for the roles to include the custom attributes.
