How to restrict delegated administrators to modify their own OIM accounts

Question

Hello - I have a requirement where we need to create delegated administrators for each department. The Delegated Admins are allowed to create and manage user accounts in OIM and OID resource. They can modify user accounts that are part of the organization that they have admin permission on however they should not be able to modify their own accounts. For example, if Org1-Admin is a part of Org1 and have admin priviledges on the Org1 he can create and modify user accounts in Org1 and provision user accounts to OID resource. He can update user profile data and process form data etc. But he should not be able to change his own user profile data and should not be able to get provisioned to OID resource. I am able to set up OIM for the delegated administration part but I am not sure how to restrict the delegated admin for modifying his own profile and restrict OID resource from him. The reason to have this requirement is these delegated admin accounts will act as non-user accounts i.e. they are not tied to any person they are more or less service accounts where if Person1 is assigned as a delegated admin of organization 1 in week 1 he should be able to do the tasks as discussed before using org1-admin account. The next week we may have person 2 doing this job and he should use the same account to login and to do these tasks, these delegated admins will have their own end user accounts that will be tied to their personal ID's and they can modify that account if they are delegated admin :) but not the delegated admin account.
Thanks,

If your self-service application binds to the directory using some special account, like 'superuser_directory' (just an example), then you could allow superuser_directory to modify entries but deny aministrators the ability to modify entries. This means that they connect with their own login to the directory when they modify entries. If you want them to stop modifying their own entries in the application, that's a matter of making the application be aware of that..
