Infor-User De-provisioning

An Infor-User De-provisioning request enables you to:

  • Lock a user.
  • Revoke the user's roles
  • Mark a user as expired
  • Change the additional attributes for a user, for example, change a user's existing user group

De-provisioning may be required in cases where an employee leaves the company, or requires only temporary access. In such a case, the user account may need to be locked and the roles assigned to the user removed.

User de-provisioning requests are not analyzed. If the request type supports automatic completion, the user is locked by default, the users roles are revoked and the user is marked as expired.

If the request type does not support automatic completion, the  Administrator has to lock the user manually and revoke the roles manually.

To create a User De-provisioning type of request:

  1. Provide details on the following panels
    • General Information: Use this panel to provide the following general information about the request.
      • Request Name: Provide a unique name to identify the request .
      • Request Priority: From the drop-down list, select a priority for the request .
      • Connections: Provide a connection for which the request is being created. You can set this connection as default from the Preferences page. To select a connection, type in a part of the connection name. All connections matching your search criteria are displayed. Select the desired connection.
        Note: Multiple connections for this request may be selected.

        The connections displayed in the drop-down list are a combination of both mapped and unmapped connections. You can select multiple mapped connections but the following combination of connections is not supported by Infor Risk & Compliance as the users will be different.

        • Mapped and Unmapped Connections
        • Multiple Unmapped connections

        For details on mapped and unmapped connections refer to the topic Create or Modify a ConnectionAlternatively, browse and select the desired connection and click OK. The selected connection appears in the Connections field.

        Note: In case of secured connections, users signed into Infor Risk & Compliance will be able to view and use only those connections that they have access to.
      • Select User ID: Select the user to be de-provisioned. To select a user, type in a part of the user name. All users matching the search criteria are displayed. If multiple connections are selected and the same user exists in those connections, the user will be displayed multiple times. Select the desired user name. Alternatively, browse and select the desired user and click OK. The selected user appears in the Select User ID field .
