Creating an Approved Change Request to Clear a Violation

Assign a Non-Compliant Role to an Employee

Make sure the SoD Rule that it will violate is Non-Blocking. This way the employee record can be saved even if it is a non-compliant role.

To assign a non-compliant role to an employee:

  1. Open Lists > Employees > Employees
  2. Click Edit for the affected employee.
  3. Assign the non-compliant role.
  4. Click Save.

This creates a SoD Violation Log.
