SAP UI5 for IDM

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

We are on IDM 7.2, SP8

Portal Version 7.3,  SP9

Browser- IE8

We want to plan to implement UI5 with our IDM, so that Manager can raise Business role for their team in IDM.

Please advise the pre requisites & plan for implementing this.

Or

It is better to use GRC for workflow configuration, so that business role provisioning happens in GRC & IDM for provisioning only.

Thanks

Aman

Aman,

There's no direct need for UI5 for your purposes.  This can all be done with the WebDynPro UI.  However if you want to expand on what is offered in the standard UI, then yes, UI5/RESTful will be very helpful.

As far as IDM or GRC, that's a loaded question to which there is no "right" answer.  All I can tell you is that based on my experience as an IDM consultant, the best thing you can do is document the needs of your organization and then map that against features and functionality of the two products. That should be the ONLY indicator of which direction to go.
