See: Identity Service Center user interface customization.

Request Access wizard

The Identity Service Center has a Request Access wizard where users can process new accesses such as role membership, accounts, and access entitlements.

It also supports batch requests by allowing the users to build up a list of items that are requested at the same time. For example, a member moves into a new role from one department to another, and the manager wants to give access to certain systems or applications. The user can follow the basic steps to use the wizard effectively:

1. Select a person for whom to request access.

2. Select one or more accesses to request for that person.
3. Provide the required information, such as justification, account details, account category, or passwords.
4. Submit the request.
5. View a submission confirmation and status page.

View Requests

We can use the Identity Service Center to view the status of the requests that you made.

View Accesses

We can use the Identity Service Center to view the accesses to folders, applications, roles, and other resources that are already granted to a user. Access requests that are pending in the approval process are also listed and information about whether the accesses are inactive or non-compliant. With the View Access flow, we can view the access list with the refined categories.

Manage Activities

You can view and manage the activities that are assigned to you. With the Manage Activities flow, we can view the activities in the summary view and detailed view. We can use the Identity Service Center to approve or reject individual approval activities. We can use the Identity Service Center to approve or reject multiple approval activities at the same time. We can approve or reject several individual approval activities or all the approval activities on the page.

Launch the IBM Security Identity Governance home page from the Identity Service Center home page

The Security Identity Governance capabilities are achieved through the IBM Security Identity Governance adapter. The capability can be linked into the Identity Service Center through a custom task. We can create a custom task to link to the Security Identity Governance home page from the Identity Service Center.
