This use case describes how to request an entitlement. This can be done by an entitlement requester or by an employee themselves, if they are enabled to use Smart ID Self-Service.

Some steps below are optional, depending on the configured entitlement approval type: without approval, 1-step approval, or 2-step approval.

Prerequisites

  • Without approval: No prerequisites
  • 1-step or 2-step approval: An Entitlement approver has to be assigned to the employee. That can be done using Change/Modify Approver.

1Entitlement requester

Logs in to Identity Manager, goes to the SEARCH tab, selects Employee and clicks Search.

In the result list, clicks on a specific record, and then on Request Multiple Entitlement on the right-hand side.

This option is available if you have run Change/Modify Approver before and the employee is enabled for Smart ID Self-Service:

Employee logs into Smart ID Self-Service, and selects Request entitlement.


Identity Manager

If the following message is displayed, you first have to set an approver for the employee using Change/Modify Approver:

Entitlement Approver not assigned. Please assign an entitlement approver to the employee.

Searches for the entitlement by clicking Search Entitlements.

If the approver needs to be changed, for example if the primary approver is not available during the time of the request (due to vacation etc), click Search Approver to select another one.
