The SAP Cloud Identity Access Governance Role Design Service is a cloud solution for creating, optimizing, and maintaining business roles for on-premise and cloud target systems. This service enables integrated processes for designing and managing business roles while reducing complexity in managing access for business applications. It also ensures that users have optimized access assignments.
The Role Designer section in the Launchpad for the SAP Cloud Identity Access Governance contains tiles to create business roles, a Role Designer Overview, and tiles to Create Candidate Business Roles and Select Candidate Business Roles. There is also a Role Design Inbox and an app for Role Design Administration as well as a Candidate Business Role (CBR) Simulator.
In the first step roles, groups and authorizations, user access and usage activity from the target applications are extracted.
A business role is system independent and serves as a virtual container for technical roles. This means the business role does not exist on the individual target systems but only on IAG.
The content of candidate business roles (CBR) is proposed by IAG-based on user role assignments on the target systems. The CBR has to undergo a review process before it can be released.
