What LCM provides

Lifecycle Manager ships pre-built workflows for access requests, manage-accounts, and identity lifecycle events. They handle approval, provisioning and notification out of the box.

LCM Provisioning workflow

The core LCM Provisioning workflow compiles a provisioning plan, gathers approvals, checks policies, and hands the plan to the provisioning engine and connectors.

Lifecycle events

Joiner, mover and leaver events are triggered by identity attribute changes and launch configured workflows to grant or revoke access automatically.

Customising LCM

You extend LCM by editing the shipped workflows or, better, by adding subprocesses and rules so upgrades stay clean.
