View management

IBM Security Identity Manager provides default views of the tasks available for each default group.

A view is a set of tasks that a particular type of user can do in the user interface. If you give a user or group a view, we do not give permissions to the user or group to do the functions within that task. We must also define access control items to give the user or group the necessary permissions for the task.

• Create a view
  As an administrator, we can create a view of tasks that IBM Security Identity Manager provides. For example, we might restrict the set of tasks that group members have.
• Change a view
  As an administrator, we can change a view of tasks that IBM Security Identity Manager provides. For example, we might restrict or expand the set of tasks that group members have.
• Deleting a view
  As an administrator, we can delete a view of tasks that IBM Security Identity Manager provides. For example, we might delete a view after creating an alternative view of tasks that group members can use.
• Define a custom task
  As an administrator, we can create a custom task for the business or organization. We must define these custom tasks before we can assign them to a view.
• Change a custom task
  As an administrator, we can change the task parameters that you specified for a customized task.
• Deleting a custom task
  As an administrator, we can delete fromISIM custom tasks that we created. For example, we might delete a custom task you no longer need it or after we create an alternative custom task that group members can use.
