Overview of User Provisioning Process


Approva is a custom application that interfaces with the VISION Transaction System to manage the user
provisioning process. This tool will be used in all field offices and UNICEF HQ.

Approva automates the following:

 Provisioning of new user accounts


 De-provisions existing accounts
 Re-provisions those accounts
 Modifies user role assignments

In addition, Approva:

 Provides an auditable workflow


 Provides a robust analysis and reporting of SoD (Segregation of Duties)
 Provides reporting on provisioning activity
 Allows users to reset their VISION Transaction System password

Process Flow Charts and Process Description


For a visual and high level description of the User Provisioning processes, see Appendix 2.

Accessing the Interface


Go to the Access Management Portal. http://intranet.unicef.org/irm/esafv2.nsf
The Approva tool has two interfaces. Some processes will refer to these two interface locations. Each
screen has different functionality and purposes. E-mail notifications refer to Role Management.

1) VISION Access (Transaction System) http://usaaapva001/ApprovaProvisioning/RequestHome.aspx

Roles Workflow
Requestor
The Requestor is an authorized staff member who initiates the creation of a VISION Transaction System
user account, modification of role assignments, de-provisioning or re-provisioning of a user account.
Historically, the PRoMs Apps Admin created the account. The new process required that the Section
Chiefs will be creating the requests in Approva.
Approver
The Approver is an authorized staff member designated to approve the request for a new VISION
Transaction System user account, de-provisioning of a user, or other changes of user role and functions
in line with office policy and segregation of duties.
Historically the Approver has been in NYHQ. The new process requires the UNICEF Representatives
“Reps” will now be the Approver. They can delegate approval duties for example to the Deputy
Representative or Chief of Operations.
Note: Delegation of this responsibility must be approved by the Controller.
Local Site Admin
IT Officer
This person is an authorized staff designated to assign user roles and functions in Approva to existing
users such as Requestors and Approver, and Analysts. See the LSA Guide found on the ilearn site.

Analyst
Reporting
Security Administrator
Deep level support

E-mail Notifications
All e-mail notifications sent by Approva will list the sender as “[email protected].”

Appendix 1 | Overview of User Provisioning Processes


Staff Member Creation
Figure 52 provides an overview of the process of provisioning a new staff member.
1. The Requestor logs into Approva and selects Create Request – SAP User Creation.
2. Since the new staff member must already be in the HR database, when the staff member is selected,
the roles are populated from the HR database based on their Position.
3. The Requestor submits the request and it goes to Approva’s SoD (Separation of Duties) analysis
process.
4. Since SoD analysis was already performed on roles in a position when the position was created. So
the request will always pass SoD analysis.
5. The request is sent via e-mail to the Approver. The Approver clicks on the link in the e-mail to view
the request. If the Approver denies the request, they should provide comments on the reason for
rejection. An e-mail is sent to the Requestor.
6. If the Approver approves the request, it is sent to the Human Resources system to check that the
staff member’s data is present. If it is not, the VISION account is not created and an e-mail
notification is sent to the Requestor.
7. If the HR record for the new staff member is present, the request goes to Approva which creates the
new account and assigns the job roles to the new staff member.
8. E-mail notifications are sent to the Requestor and the new staff member.
38

Figure 52 Provisioning a Staff Member


39

New Consultant Creation

Figure 53 provides an overview of the process of provisioning a new consultant.


1. The Requestor logs into Approva and selects Create Request – SAP User Creation.
2. Roles are added by the Requestor to the consultant’s functions. Common, functional
and enabler roles need to be added since the consultant has no position data to assign
roles.
3. The Requestor submits the request and it goes to Approva’s SoD (Separation of Duties)
analysis process.

De-Provisioning a Staff Member or Consultant

Figure 55 provides an overview of the process of De-Provisioning user.


De-Provisioning removes all users’ job roles leaving an empty account. The user is in the SAP
database but with no roles assigned. The process is the same for both Staff and Consultants.

2. The Requestor submits the request.
3. An e-mail is sent to the Approver. The Approver clicks on the link in the e-mail to view
the request and the comments.
4. If the Approver denies the request, they should provide comments on the reason for
rejection. An e-mail is sent to the Requestor.
5. If the Approver approves the request it is sent to VISION which locks the account and
removes all job roles from the account leaving a “shell” account.

Re-Provisioning Staff Member


Figure 56 provides an overview of the process of provisioning a staff member.
This is similar to creating a new staff member but because the shell account still exists from
when they were De-Provisioned, Approva must handle the request differently.
1. The Requestor logs into Approva and selects Create Request – SAP User ReProvision.
2. The Requestor selects the staff member from the drop-down menu. The date fields are
populated from the existing data.
Note: The Valid from Date field shows the original hire date. Do not change this field.
3. Roles are assigned based on the position data.
4. The Requestor submits the request and it goes to Approva’s SoD (Separation of Duties)
analysis process.
5. Since SoD analysis was already performed on roles in a position when the position was
created. So the request will pass SoD analysis.
6. The request is sent via e-mail to the Approver. The Approver clicks on the link in the e-
mail to view the request. If the Approver denies the request, they should provide
comments on the reason for rejection. An e-mail is sent to the Requestor.
7. If the Approver allows the request it is sent to the Human Resources system to check
that the staff member’s data is present. If it is not, the VISION account is not created
and an e-mail notification is sent to the Requestor.
8. If the HR record for the staff member is present, the request goes to Approva which
reactivates the account and assigns the job roles to the re-provisioned staff member.
9. E-mail notifications are sent to the Requestor and the staff member.

Provision.
2. The Requestor selects the consultant from the drop-down menu. The date fields are
populated from the existing data.
Note: The Valid from Date field shows the original hire date. Do not change this field.

and enabler roles need to be added since the consultant has no position data to assign
roles.

analysis process.
5. SoD analysis flags violation of SoD rules and sends a notification e-mail to the Requestor.
6. The Requestor clicks on the link in the e-mail to open the Approva system to the record.
7. The Requestor reviews the violations and adds comments to indicate how these
violations will be handled. Roles may also be deleted to resolve the violations. The
request is then submitted again to SoD analysis.

Requestor. This loop will continue until the Requestor adds no further comments to the
request.
