Approval process

The approval process is a natural part of the access request process. Once a user submits access request, the request is subject to approval by appropriate approvers. In midPoint, the approval process is dynamic and policy-driven. As each role may have its own approval settings and policies, the request may be subdivided to approval by numerous approvers in several approval levels. MidPoint dynamically determines the policy, summarizes approver decisions and applies them to the request. Approved roles are automatically assigned and applied. Approval process is a generic mechanism in midPoint, triggered by policy rules. Apart from the access request process, the approval process can be applied to other scenarios as well, such as approval of role modification.
