Home / Identity Administration / People / Current: Creating Person Relationships

You can create Person relationships within EmpowerID to model the hierarchy of your organizational structure and allow for automatic workflow routing to occur between an employee and that employee's manager when Manager is selected as a Person relationship and that option is enabled in a workflow. Person relationships can encompass the following models:

  • Manager
  • Assistant
  • Secretary
  • Peer
  • Dotted-line manager
  • Team member
  • Follows

This demonstrates how to create a Person Relationship by setting the manager for a person.

Person relationships are objects secured by EmpowerID workflows and operations. To manage Person relationships, you need the following delegations:
  • Initiator Access Level for the AddPersonRelationships workflow to request a new Person relationship be created
  • Initiator Access Level for the RemovePersonRelationships workflow to request a Person relationship be removed
  • Access Level assignment with the Add Relationships operation allowed for each Person object to add a new relationship without requiring approval
  • Access Level assignment with the Remove Relationships operation allowed for each Person object to remove an existing relationship without requiring approval
