Environment:

SailPoint Version : 7.0, 7.1

Problem Statement:

Unable to request a new account for existing identity from Manage Accounts in SailPoint IIQ.

Problem : Account Request Option is not available

 

Solution :

Firstly we need to check the Lifecycle Manager Configurations, navigate to Lifecycle Manager and in Configure tab Search for Manage Accounts options :

Applications that support account only requests : Select all applications check box or specified application according to your requirement.

Solution part 1- Select all applications

 

Allow Manage Accounts Additional Account Requests : Enable
Allow Manage Existing Accounts : Enable
Allow Account Only Requests : Enable

–> If you are using higher version of SailPoint 6.4 then you will face problem in finding these 3 options to enable them.

Solution 1 :

For that you need to edit init-lcm.xml and import it again in iiq console. (This will effect pre-existing workflows and LCM Configuration. So, to avoid that follow Solution 2).

Follow these steps and pictures shown below for editing init-lcm.xml (Solution 1)

 Step 1: init-lcm.xml is present in ~identityIQ/WEB-INF/config/init-lcm.xml location. Make a copy of it and place it in a safe folder.

 

Now open init.xml and search for Manage Accounts under QuickLink tag.

In init.xml search Manage Account

 

Carefully observe 3 entries under Manage Accounts tag.
