To configure a provisioning request definition, you use iManager to bind it to a provisioned resource, specify the runtime characteristics of the associated workflow, and enable it for use. Identity Manager ships with a set of predeployed provisioning request definitions and workflows. You can use these as templates for building your own provisioning system. The installed templates are easy to use and, yet, flexible enough to address the requirements of a wide range of business environments. To set up your system, you define new objects based on the installed templates and customize these objects to suit the needs of your organization.
Once a provisioning request definition has been configured, you can use iManager to view the status of running workflow processes, reassign activities within the workflows, or terminate a workflow in the event that it is stuck.
For more information about using iManager for provisioning configuration and management, see Section 22.0, Configuring Provisioning Request Definitions and Section 23.0, Managing Provisioning Workflows.
