Certification Schedules Tab

Use the Certification Schedules tab to view and edit information about pending and periodic.

Note: Certifications that are scheduled to run one time are considered to be pending and are removed from the list of scheduled certifications after the scheduled run time.

Periodic certifications are scheduled to run on a periodic basis, such as hourly, daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, and annually. Periodic access reviews provide a snapshot view of the identities, roles, and account groups in your enterprise. Periodic certifications focus on the frequency that entire entities (identities, roles, account groups) must be certified.

Periodic certifications are not complete until all access reviews included in the certification are complete. An access review is not complete until all actions are complete and the user who is assigned the access review confirms the decisions.

Periodic certifications can be created using a multi-level sign-off structure which enables multiple certifiers to review access reviews before they are considered complete. For example, a certification can be created for the direct reports of a team leader who knows his employees, but is not authorized to make final certification decisions. When the team leader makes his decisions and signs off on the access review, it can be forwarded to the department manager to review the decisions and make changes if necessary.
