OIM 11g approval auditing

Is there any way to query the database to show approvals / status for OIM 11g approval workflows? The goal is a report in BI Publisher.
Thank you

You can query SOA table, WFTASK and WFTASKHISTORY

OIM 11g Approval Workflow Notification questions

Hello.
I am working with an OIM 11g approval workflow. The workflow will flow from one group to another, and if one user in each group approves it, it is approved. Because I assigned it to groups, the notifications are going to every user in each group.
Is it possible to send a notification to only a single user within a group, instead of everyone? Does auto claim do this?
Is it possible to send a different notification if the ApprovalTask is rejected versus approved?
Thanks.

If I understand correctly, you want to send the notification only to the user who has approved the request and not to all in the group. You can do it by NOT using the notification tab in the .task but by using EmailNotificationService after the .task in BPEL. There you can read the data from payload on who approved the request and can send the notification only to that user. Same way for rejects. You can configure that.
1. After your .task completion you can have a decision box which can check the value for 'outcome' and then direct it to appropriate path for appropriate notification.
or
2. Based on outcome you can set the template in a variable and then in the notificationservice use that variable.

Sending email notifications in oim 11g approval flow dynamically

Hi,
I have 4 level approval workflow in oim 11g and developed custom composite to get all the approver ids and and assigning these ids into 4 variables.
And used these variables in my custom 4 level sequential workflow. This workflow is working fine. Now I need to update this composite to send email notifications to the approver. So updated code to retrieve email ids and to store them in 4 more vairables. I cannot send all emails at a time thru the code. I need to send email only to the corresponding approver only when the flow reaches to that particular level.
Subject and body will be same but the email address will vary.
Can you please let me know the step by step process to implement notifications to these many levels.
If you think, this is not correct approach (storing all email ids in variables and then sending notifications), please let me know correct approach.
Thanks,
Mary

The way to do it would be to put your human task inside a while loop. This while loop would set a variable to the approver's userid and would continue till all the four approve it. In your human task you need just one approver and that would be the variable which the while loop sets.
If you do it this way, then you can use the OOTB notification tab in the .task and select the 'Assignee' as the email notification receiver and you won't have to worry about getting the email ids as well.
As for the current approach which you have, that is of using the sequential approvers in the human task, I haven't tried it, but just try setting the notification tab in the .task to 'Assignee' and event 'On Assignment'. That should do it as well.

OIM 11g Approval Workflow Notification Configuration

Dear All,
Is there any documentation guide or tutorial or step by step guide about how to configure approval workflow notification in oim 11g?
In my case, a request must be approve by 3 (three) level of approver, "Requester Manager" --> "Application Business Owner" --> "Application Administrator". On each level, a notification need to be sent to the approver contains all information about the requester and the resource that requested.
How can i configure the notification since approval processes are in SOA composite and the development of the workflow is using JDeveloper?
Many Thanks for your help.

Hi
Please go through the link, You can configure notification any time based on you requirement. You have to get emails to whom you want to sent, just set this mail in a variable. Use this variable as to ,..

OIM 11g Approval Process

Hi Expert/All,
May I have assistance regarding the OIM 11g?
Currently, I already create one approval (only 1 level approval) for some resource in OIM 11g, then I'm continue to test the resource with two below way:
1. If I'm try to add "New Resource" directly by xelsysadm via manage user menu (without approval process), the provisioning process was successfully creating new account in the target system.
2. The wierd is if I'm try to test Self-service request by user, after approval by last level approval, then there is no provisioning activity by OIM system, it is like OIM do nothing. The request status is show "Obtaining Template Approval" and history approval is complete by manager user (only 1 level approval)
My question is, does it still required any configuration for completing the provisioning process after the approval process?
Thanks,
Ricky R

Hi Kevin,
Thanks for the information, but it still do nothing, OIM did not continue the provisioning account to target system event I already assign SYSTEM ADMINISTRATOR roles to the user and manager. How I can trace this logs? currently I'm just look at the oim_server1.log at <OIM_DOMAIN>/severs/oim_server1/logs. Is there any other log file can we use to trace the app server logs?
Thanks,
Ricky R

OIM 11g R2 Auditing

I have auditing (sys property XL.UserProfileAuditDataCollection) set to Process Task which should capture all the events according to the docs found at http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E27559_01/admin.1112/e27149/system_props.htm#BACGIDCH.
I bounced the OIM managed server and changed a user's email address. It seems like it doesnt add an entry in upa_usr table for the change. Does OIM 11g R2 store these info in other tables?

Hey Dj,
No, It stores into same Upa_tables. Probably the SQL you are doing mybe wrong or missing something. Try this join below:
from usr b, upa_usr c, upa_fields a
where 1=1
and c.usr_key=b.usr_key
and a.upa_usr_key = c.upa_usr_key
and upper(b.usr_email) like upper('%thiago.leoncio%') and upper(b.usr_login) like upper('%thiago.leoncio%')
order by a.upa_fields_key desc
I hope this helps,
THiago Leoncio.

OIM 11g - Approval workflows for disabled user accounts

Hi,
We have a scenario wherein a user will be created in OIM with a future start date resulting in a Disabled Untill Start Date user status. Once the user is created, we should let anyone submit a New Hire form for the user and the submitted form needs to be approved by the Manager. Once the Manager approves the form, the target accounts should get created with disabled status. These accounts should get enabled on the start date.
As submission of New Hire Form is not a straightforward process, we came up with the following design.
A dummy resource object corresponding to the New Hire Form will be created and can be requested for a newly hired person by anyone who has OIM access. An approval workflow will be configured for the New Hire Form Resource object and provisioning of target accounts will be based on Manager's approval for this resource object.
However the challenge that we see with this design is, it wasn't possible to place a request for New Hire Form dummy resource object for a disabled user. But the requirement is to complete the New Hire Form submission process befor the user becomes active.
How can these workflows be invoked for a disbaled user? Is there any other way to implement this requirement?
Any kind of help/guidance is greatly appreciated.
Thanks and Regards
Deepa

If I create a dummy resource, called "Group Membership" for example, and use this to show the groups that are available in AD, how can I have the request be routed to different approvers? For example, group cn=HR Users,cn=Users,dc=company,dc=com needs to be routed to HR for approval. Group cn=IT,cn=Users,dc=company,dc=com needs to be routed to IT for approval. How can I change the approvers dynamically?
Re: Spawning multiple approval tasks in parallel in OIM11g SOA Composite
You can have dynamic task assignment in BPEL; where you defne a variable in the task assignment and update the variable with the approver group name before triggering the task assignment task. Check BPEL docs for same.
If every group needs a different approver, and there are 5000 groups, can I make 5000 resources and use the built-in routing of approvals? Or, use the dummy resource approach and handle the management of the approvals in some other way.Just make one resource with one field attached to it which takes in the group name and handle approval in SOA by reading a lookup which has AD group to Approval Group mapping.

Can approver modify user's request form in OIM 11g?

Dear All,
In OIM 10g, the approver of a request can modify user's request form, we just need to configure the permission in OIM. But, can we do it in OIM 11g?
If can, how can i configure it?
really need your help guys,, :D
Thank you,
--herry

Hi user12841694,
Thanks for the suggestion. But, the data (field) that can be modified by the approver is very limited. We cannot attach multi-valued attribute there (like Child Form).

Using web services in Approval Work flow in OIM 11g

Hi All,
I am a new bie to OIM 11g. I have created an approval work flow and it is working fine.
Now my requirement is to use a web service in the approval work flow instead of directly embeding the java code in Java Embeding Activity. Can some body share me a document or url for the process of doing it.
Thanks in advance for the help.

Request Approval Process exception in OIM 11g

Hi,
We have upgraded oim 9.1 to oim 11.1.1.5 and we did not have any request approvals in oim 9.1.
Now we are using oim 11g to develop request approval process. We have tried to raise a request for "Provisioning Resource" - Application Access and "Assign Role" - Business Role Request in OIM 11g environment. Both the Requests are failing with the same exception as below,
Error:
IAM-2050014:An error occurred while initiating approvals for request oracle.iam.platform.workflowservice.exception.IAMWorkflowException: Tasklist mapping failed for workflowdefinition: default/DefaultRequestApproval!1.0 due to javax.naming.NamingException: String index out of range: -1. The corresponding error message is {1}.
Any idea on the above error?
Thanks!!

you can follow these videos to see if you can get a basic manager approval working for a self request resource.

Auto approval for self registration request in OIM 11G R2

Hi all,
We have a requirement where we want end users to be able to self-register without needing any sort of approval. We are using OIM 11G R2 with the latest patchset.
The way to do it in 11G R1 is explained in the following document:
[http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E21764_01/doc.1111/e14316/unauth_selfservice.htm#BABFEIBF]
But now that R2 does not have any request templates, we are not sure how to do this. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your time.

How to get details of Pending Approval request in OIM 11g R2?

Hi,
We need to find out following details from Pending Approval Request in OIM 11g R2 -
Request ID,Assignees,Requested Resource Name, Title of Request, Beneficiary, Status of Request.
Out of above attributes we could find out Assignees, Title of Request, Status of Request, Beneficiary, etc. But we are not getting Request ID and Requested Resource Name.
We have used API - 'IworkflowServiceClient'
If we use API - 'RequestService' then we are not getting Assignees and Resource name from Pending approval request.
Can any one suggeste how can we get these details? Do we need to use other API or other alternative to get all of attributes from Pending Approval Request.
Thanks.

Thanks Kevin for your suggestion.
In OIM 11g R2 I tried task.getIdentificationKey() to get Request ID and task.getSystemMessageAttributes().getTextAttribute6() to get requested resource name but I am getting null values out of it. Is there something I am missing?
Which common thing I can use to retrieve data from both OIM and SOAINFRA? As I am not getting Request ID from 'IworkflowServiceClient' API so I could not use it to earch request in OIM using 'RequestService'. Even if I have to use query what will be common thing I can use to fetch data from both tablespaces?
Thanks.
