Business The business role and location membership policy is to certify recertification process validates whether the membership of a business role and location is still required for a valid business purpose. Certain actions must be made if the membership is no longer required. In other words, the business role and location membership recertification policy is to certify whether membership should exist or not.

For the recertification, an a recertification policy is created, a recertification audit is created, the recertification policy is added to the audit, then the audit is compiled, which generates business requests that are sent for approval.

The engine bundles the recertification items into business requests based on the object itself. Therefore in this case the business role and location is the bundle for the business requests and its members are items.

The possible decisions for the business requests are generally configured as set to certify or revoke the memberbusiness role and location membership. However, these possible decisions are configurable. This configuration is described under decision configuration at the end of this page.

In this post, we will create a business role and location membership type recertification policy and add a target to it.
