View Suggested Roles

When CA Identity Manager integrates with CA RCM, you can view a list of provisioning roles that CA RCM suggests for a particular user. The provisioning roles that CA RCM suggests meet the following criteria:

• You have privileges to assign the provisioning roles to the selected user.
• The provisioning roles match the search criteria (if any) that you enter in the Search field.
• The provisioning roles match at least one of the selected suggestions methods.

To view suggested roles

1. Execute a task in the User Console that includes the Provisioning Roles tab.

   By default, the Provisioning Roles tab appears in the Create User and Modify User tasks.

   CA Identity Manager displays any provisioning roles that the current user already has.

2. Click Suggested Provisioning Roles.

   A search screen, which allows you to specify criteria for the type of provisioning roles to suggest, opens.

   CA Identity Manager displays a list of provisioning roles that meet the default search criteria, which is defined in the global default settings.

   Each provisioning role has a score, which indicates how well the suggested role meets the specified criteria.

3. (Optional) Augment your search using one of the following methods:
   • To filter suggested provisioning roles based on an attribute of the role, such as name, enter criteria in the Search field.

     You can specify full or partial wildcard searches by using an asterisk (*) to represent all or part of a value.

   • To specify new matching criteria for suggested roles, expand the Advanced Suggestion Configuration section. Select the criteria to use in the search and click Suggest.

     CA Identity Manager returns a list of provisioning roles that meet the criteria you specified.

   Note: The Advanced Suggestion Configuration section may not available in all implementations. Administrators can choose to hide or show this section when they configure global default settings.

4. Select the roles that you want to assign to the user and click Submit.

   CA Identity Manager assigns the specified roles to the user.
