Overview of JIT “Mover” Recertification Flow Item
The
...
The JIT recertification flow item is tied to a recertification policy that can define which type of data should be certified when the flow item is triggered. To modify the just-in-time (JIT) recertification process, you can configure or change the JIT recertification flow item. This allows you to customize the process by adjusting configurations such as Item Type Action, Recertification Policy, and Approval Fulfillment Workflow. However, it is important to consider the information provided in the Key Concept below before making any changes.

Just-In-Time (JIT) Recertification Flow is an efficient tool designed to assist administrators in managing resource access during role changes within a team. This flow becomes particularly relevant when a team member transitions to a new role, necessitating a review of their access assignments to resources linked to their previous position.
The Challenges with Old Methods
Traditionally, employee role changes required full audits to reevaluate their access permissions. However, this approach could present a risk in that an audit of an employee's access might not be scheduled to occur in a timely manner. Additionally, the number of employee transfers and role changes occurring at any given time could be significant for large organizations. In these cases, running full organizational audits is impractical, resource-intensive, and time-consuming, slowing down operational efficiency.
Automating Recertification with JIT
The JIT Recertification Flow offers a modern solution by automatically initiating a business request for resource recertification. This approach obviates the need for a full-scale audit. The automation is managed by a specific recertification policy, which provides a detailed framework for the process.
Advantages of Using JIT Recertification Flow
Using JIT Recertification Flow provides multiple benefits:
Enhanced Security: Timely review and revocation or update of access permissions minimize security risks.
Operational Efficiency: Automating the process expedites recertification, thus contributing to increased operational efficiency.
Real-world Use Cases
Consider a situation where an employee from the Marketing Department moves to a role in Human Resources. With JIT Recertification Flow in place, as soon as the role change is registered in the system, a business request for recertification is automatically initiated. The system would follow the guidelines set out in the recertification policy to determine which permissions should be reviewed, altered, or revoked.

Key Information
When choosing a recertification policy, it's important to ensure that it applies to all resources, not just a single one. For example, if a policy only targets a particular person, it's ineffective because the event won't generate a recertification for another person in the same flow event. It is crucial to have a policy that applies to all resources for effective recertification. The target of the policy tied to the recertification flow item must include all possible resources. Typically, special recertification policies are created for the JIT recertification flow item, which is usually shipped with the product and should not be included in other normal audits. If you want to change the default policy, please make sure you meet the requirements discussed here. Recertification Policy: Recertification policies determine the type of access information that needs to be reviewed and validated for each user. Read More Target: Recertification targets configure who/what to recertify. Targets are added to the policy. Read More Item Scope Type: Item Type Scope will determine which data/access the policy will recertify. Targets are added to the policy. Read More |
