GRC AC Request Role Creation

Hello all,
I noticed that by default GRC AC doesn´t have a Request Type for Role Creation. Normally how this is done? I mean, if someone realizes that a new role is necessary, how can this person report the need for a new role creation? What are my option here?
Regards,

Hi SAP Legend,
You can not request a new role to be created via an Access Request workflow. You still need a business governance strategy where someone has to raise a request outside of the GRC system for the new roles through the right channels deemed fit in your company to get the new role made. Maybe you have a support ticketing system in place or some SAP security department you can raise the formal requests to.
The BRM Role creation/maintenance workflow runs separately from the Access Request workflow. Further more, the definition and creation process of roles via GRC should only involve and be used by Business Process Owners/Role Owners and the Authorisation security team only, i.e. not general end users.
A role build methodology will have to be set up and then the underlying approval workflows (based in MSMP technology also, like the AR workflow).
Once the role has been built (either via back end PFCG) or via GRC using the BRM methodology and approval flows, the role will be available to the end user to request via AR.
Hope that helps.

Request Number is not generated for BRM "new" role creation

Hello Gurus,
I have configured BRM in SAP GRC AC 10, along with the workflow .
I have selected the following methodology
Define Role --> Maintain Auth >Analyze & Access Risk>Request Approval>Generate Roles>Maintain Test Cases
Role name : Y_TEST_BRM_FUNCTIONALITY
So i do the following steps and assign
1) Role approver as Mr. ABC & Alternate approver as Mr. QRS
2) Assign the Required transactions and do the RAR i.e i am done till step 3 of methodology
When i click "Initiate Approval request"
The approval triggers , and goes to the 1st stage as configured in MSMP
1) Power User Approval .
Here the Power User : EFG , open his workflow and see the request as
Role approval required for role Y_TEST_BRM_FUNCTIONALITY
The approver approves the request and then the request all together vanishes.
Unfortunately i am not able to search the request for that role from NWBC -->Search request by
Process Id : Role Approver Workflow
It gives blank !!
Hence neither i am able to find the request no able to do any debugging of it using
GRFNMW_DBGMONITOR_WD
Please note that the Request Id is created for any request in CUP.
Is it that i have to create a number range for BRM request ??
If so will you please let me know the object

Hello All,
I was wrong in posting the cause of problem.
Please note no "Request number" is generated for Role creation Request.
The problem was i was unable to search the Role Request approval status from "Search Request" via Process Id
It got resolved via SAP note 1643539 : UAM: Search Request not returning result for some Process Id.
My Issues is Resolved.
Thank You.

How to raise role creation/modification request in AC 10

We are implementing AC10. I have issue more related to the process followed than technical. Please suggest from your experience.
We found that we can raise the request for new user account, role assignment to user, etc in Acess Request(formerly CUP), but we cannot raise the request for role creation, role modification. This is directly done in Role management. My question is, how the security admin will recieve the requests for creating or maintaining the roles. Is it necessary to use ticketing tool for users to raise the request for role creation and modification.
Thanks everyone for your valuable solutions.

Dear Ashish,
Whatever you have mentioned is correct to have the common platform for every request, either for user creation or role creation.
But what we decided earlier, that the end users can raise the request in CUP directly, rather than involving security admin. But after realizing that there is no request type for role creation, I think we have to use our ticketing tool as a common platform.
Request will come to security admin from the ticketing tool and than he will create the request in CUP, thereafter it will follow the approval workflow. Only problem I see in this, it goes to the manager twice, once in ticketing tool and than through CUP workflow. i think we need to take out the manager stage from the workflow.

Request roles IdM to GRC - Error remaining name

Hi experts!
We are with a problem on Idm/GRC, when we try to change his function in
the company to another function on User Interface, for example:
-System Analyst I to System Analyst "II".
Idm sends the role to approval in the GRC, then when we try to change
the occupation of this employee, ex to "System Analyst II" (changing the
occupation) IdM Send the new request to GRC with the role and approve,
we approve, but in the backend ECC, GRC just "adds" the new role.
We need to remove the previous role look error at the attachments!
Thanks

Hi Matt,
The WS is running ok on the GRC side, look below, "006"= approved and "009" = rejected.
Thanks

BRM-No Role Creation

Hi gurus,
I have just upgraded my GRC 10.0 to SP18 and when I access to create a new role in the NWBC, the button is in grey, I mean, I can not start the creation of it. However, I can modify the roles without problems.
Any idea of what can be happening?
Thanks,

Approval of role creation

Hi All
I need to create a WET for role creation, this is simple But I need to incorporate approval of the creation of the new MX_ROLE entry. I can only find documentation/guides on how to implement approval of role and privilege assignment. Does anyone know if it is possible to setup approval on creation on a new entry?
Kind regards,
Heidi

I have tried to implement the MX_INACTIVE solution. Now it is not possible to see the role on the "Adminstrate"-tab, and there is an approval task on the "To do"-tab. When I click this task, details on the role are displayed properly, but when I try to process the request by clicking the "Show request"-button (button name translated from Danish, it might be translated differently...) I get an error: "Access denied".
I have set correct approver on the approval task, and I was able to process approval requests, before I set the role to inactive.
On the approval task, I have checked the "Use inactive entries" checkbox.
Does anyone have an idea what could be wrong?
Kind regards,
Heidi Kronvold

Role Creation in CUP 5.3

Hello,
I'm trying to understand the concept of what is called "role creation" in Compliant User Provisioning.
My understanding is that the "create role" option in CUP (configuration>Roles>Create Role) means simply adding the "attributes" such as a business process, functional area, system, or company, to the SAP roles that you imported into CUP.
It seems that, with CUP, once you have imported SAP roles and "adjusted" them (adding attributes), you are no longer operating PFCG and SU01 in the SAP backend system. From this point on, everything is done in CUP (provisioning) and ERM (creating additional roles).
Please tell me if I'm wrong.
HM

HM,
The create role option in CUP is mainly for legacy/non-cup supported systems. This way you can follow the standard workflow process for LDAP/Windows/legacy system. In this user provisioning and role assignment will not be done through CUP and will be manual. This is very important for some companies as they want user to go through same process if they want to get access to any system and not only ERP system.
The below statement is wrong.
It seems that, with CUP, once you have imported SAP roles and "adjusted" them (adding attributes), you are no longer operating PFCG and SU01 in the SAP backend system. From this point on, everything is done in CUP (provisioning) and ERM (creating additional roles).
If you don't have ERM then you will have to use PFCG. Once you have CUP, you don't have to use SU01.

Idm-Vaau Rbac role creations and mapping

Hi All,
I'm working on the integration between Idm and Vaau's Rbacx (role based access control) tool for role creation and provisioning...I've imported the spml.xml and SPMLGetObjectsform.xml into Idm for the SPML calls between Rbacx and Idm.
The challenge I'm facing is mapping the attributes of Rbacx roles to enable the attributes to be populated in Idm...I'm able to export roles into Idm, but they are not populating with any attributes eg. resource type, resource attribute etc. I'm uncertain as to where I have to map these properties and do any customization for this to work. I would appreciate if anyone who has worked on this or know how to do this, to pls give me some pointers/share your experience. I don't have any documentation to refer to and am doing everything on trial and error basis.
Any help is greatly appreciated!
Thank you.

Hi newbie,
Were you able to solve this issue? I am facing the same problem while assigning resource attributes for a created role using a custom workflow.
This is where I set the resource attributes in my workflow:
<Action id='1'>
<expression>
     <block trace='true'>
     <set><ref>role</ref><s>assignedResources[AD].attributes[AD Groups].valueType</s><ref>ADGroupsValueType</ref></set>
     <set><ref>role</ref><s>assignedResources[AD].attributes[AD Groups].requirement</s><ref>ADGroupsRequirement</ref></set>
     <append><ref>role</ref><s>assignedResources[AD].attributes[AD Groups].value</s><ref>ADGroupsValue</ref></append>
     </block>
</expression>
</Action>
where <ref>ADGroupsValue</ref> contains the attribute value.
thanks,
Lokesh

Role Creation using CAT Scripts

Hi,
Step by step procedure needed.
I need role creation using scripts(SECATT),org values that needs to maintain
is full authorization.
pls help me.
ram

Hi Ram,
There is a SECATT tutorial here: http://www.*********************/tutorials/secatt_user_create.html
If you learn that & the principles associated with SECATT then you can apply that to creating and populating roles.
In my opinion SCAT is much easier to use, though less flexible,

Customizing Role creation form??

Hi,
We have requirement to customize the Role creation form. We have to store extra information in the role object. I know that we can store extra information by using properties attrinute of the Role. But the question is how to expose this to administrators through UI?
I don't find any form mapping for role creation in the "Forms and Process Mappings" section. Anybody knows how to achieve this requirement? What is the default form used for role creation?
Thanks in advance.

There's a userForm configuration object called "Role Form" that is used when you create a new Role.
You can add a new field to this form like so;
<Field name='properties.Department'>
<Display class='Text'>
<Property name='title' value='Department'/>
<Property name='disabled'>
<Boolean>true</Boolean>
</Property>
</Display>
</Field>
Then the Department attribute will be saved against the Role attribute.
Is this what you're looking for?
Cheers,
Paul

Mass roles creation

Hi all,
I am supposed to create 2000 roles in our system.
Is there any way to create roles in mass.
If there please provide me the details to do the mass roles creation.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Suganya

> I am supposed to create 2000 roles in our system.
> Is there any way to create roles in mass.
How do you mean 'in mass'? Do you want 2000 identical copies of one role, are you talking about derived roles or do you need to create 2000 completely different roles?
Please give us some more information. (And prepare for the fact that some tasks do not have shortcuts...)
