Configure Eligibility for Management Roles

Eligibility rules allow you to restrict who can and cannot see and shop for IT resources that you have enabled for the IT Shop. Users added as eligible assignees for specific resources can shop for those objects in the IT Shop.

Add eligibility

  1. On the navbar, expand Role Management and select Management Roles.

  2. Select the All Roles tab and then search for the Management Role to which you want to add eligibility. 

  3. Click the Management Role link for the role.

     

  4. On the ViewOne page that appears, select the Advanced tab and then select the Eligibility sub-tab.


    You should see four eligibility rules:

    • Resources Members Eligible to Request (As Actor) – Allows you to specify the resources that members of the Management Role are eligible to request from the IT Shop, as well as the eligibility type for each of those resources.

    • Resources Members May Not Request (As Actor) – Allows you to specify the resources that members of the Management Role are excluded from requesting. Resources added here will not be visible to any members of the Management Role, even if they are eligible to request those resources by virtue of another assignment.

    • Who is Eligible to Request (As Resource) – Allows you to specify who is eligible to request membership access to the Management Role, as well as the eligibility type for each of those potential members.

    • Who is Excluded from Requesting (As Resource) – Allows you to specify who is not eligible to shop for membership access to the Management Role.

  5. Expand the accordion corresponding to the type of eligibility rule you want to assign to the Management Role and follow the steps outlined for that eligibility rule.

Add this rule when you want to give members of the Management Role the ability to shop for access to the resources you add here.

  1. Click the Add button in the grid header.

     

  2. Fill in the fields of the Assignment Information pane:

    • Assignment Type – Select Direct or Location.

    • Enter a <Resource Type> Name to Search – Search for and select the specific resource to which members of the Business Role and Location are eligible to request.
