Defining Approvers(Managers) in ERM

[Former Member]

Dear All,

I am designing a workflow for adding tcode/authorization object. The workflow is as follows:-

Requestor>Security>Manager-->Provisioning

In CUP:

Requestor --> Security Admin.( now security admin will the hold the request in CUP)

In ERM:

Security Admin ( Requestor) ---> Manager (ERM request in CUP)

After the manager approves ERM request and the Security Admin generates the role he (Security Admin) will remove the HOLD request in CUP and approve the same and close it.

My question- how can we define an approver like a manager or an HOD in ERM like we do it in CUP. I know its illogical to have a manager/HOD for roles but i dont have much choice as the HOD/manager has to feature in the workflow. How can classify roles in ERM as to who will the HOD for the same based on available attributes in ERM?

Also how do we separately define the Role Owner and the Approver in ERM?

In ERM when you define a role, in approvers tab you can set the role owner as well.
