Introduction

The Core Identity is the most central entity in the CoreOne Suite. Each Core Identity represents a person within the CoreOne Meta Directory. It’s an entity that has a specific type, called Core Identity Type. That type defines what attributes are available to the entity, what workflows are being executed an what identity types are available. Each such Core Identity does represent a person and each person should only have one Core Identity. All the identities that on person can have, are then logically connected to this Core Identity. Furthermore the Core Identity has a wide set of attributes and other relations such as 0…N employments, asset and attribute set assignment.

Core Identity

Parameter

The following parameters can be managed when creating or mutating a Core Identity.

Parameter	Data type	Mandatory field	Example value	Description

Parameter	Data type	Example value	Description
Core Identity type	Core Identity type	individual person	The core identity type defines which attributes must be captured.
Manager	Core Identity	John Doe	Who is responsible for the object. This can be understood in the sense of a superior (in the case of an employee) or a responsible (in the case of a service).
Attributes according to selected core identity types	-
Employment	Employment		If defined on the core identity types

Actions

The following actions can be performed on a Core Identity from the Admin UI.

Action	Description

Action	Description
Create password document	Creates a welcome letter according to the stored template incl. initial password
Initial passwords set	Sets the initial password on all associated identities

Employments

Each Core Identity can have 0..N employments. Each employment is a combination of a valid from, valid to, organizational assignment, function and employment type. This data can then be used to assign roles and resources, define mapping and other things.

Main Employment

Since a Core Identity can have more than 1 employment, the CoreOne Suite determines the main employment of the Core Identity.
For this it takes all currently valid employments, in particular the employments with a valid from value in the past and a valid to value in the future or no value. Than it sorts the employments by the main_employment flag, which for example can be imported, followed by the percentage in descending order.
So the main employment is either the currently valid employment with the flag main_employment, or the currently valid employment with the highest percentage.

Identity

A Core Identity can have 0...N identities where an identity always belongs to only one Core Identity. This relationship ensures that an identity is always uniquely assignable.

Roles

0...N roles can be assigned to a Core Identity. The assignments are either manual or automatic and can be time-limited.

Ressources

0...N roles can be assigned to a Core Identity. The assignments are either manual or automatic and can be time-limited.

Attribute Set Assignments

A Core Identity can be assigned 0...N attribute sets. The assignments are either manual or automatic and can be time-limited.
