ERM - composite role is requiring profile name

[Rich_Turnquist]

I am configuring ERM (AC 5.3 SP8) and have imported all single and composite roles. I have naming standards set up for all Single roles, composite roles, derived roles, and profile names. However, when I try to create or change a composite role, it thinks a profile needs to be there (I blank it out on the create). Composite roles don't require profile names.

If I delete the naming standard for profile, it doesn't require a profile for composite. But then when I create a single role, it isn't there either. I really want to maintain a naming standard for profiles for single and derived roles. How can I do this without needing it for my composite roles?

Thanks!

Peggy,

I have not tried this myself as the client where I am at now have not implemented ERM. This sounds like a bug to me. You may want to check wtih SAP.

It is a bug with SAP.

You can have naming standards for profiles as long as you have ENFORCED=disabled. So, basically, as long as you don't enforce your (profile) naming standards you can delete the profile name when you are creating a composite role. It sort of defeats the purpose of enforcing naming standards but at least it's a work around. SAP has this in development right now and it is being looked at.
