    • Human Resources Scoped App: Lifecycle Events for Enterprise [com.sn_hr_lifecycle_ent] plugin
      Note:
      The lifecycle event for new hire onboarding is included as demo data with this plugin.

    Role required: admin

    Procedure

    1. Set up the Okta spoke v1.1.1.
      For instructions on how to set up the spoke, see Set up Okta spoke v1.1.1.
    2. Fetch the Okta groups into your instance.
      For instructions on how to fetch the groups, see Fetch Okta groups.
      Important:
      If an Okta group is deleted from within the Okta system, that change will not be reflected in your instance. You must manually delete the record by navigating to Okta Spoke > Okta groups, as well as remove it from any business role mappings.
    3. Configure the required business roles.
      Note:
      The Business Roles [com.snc.businessroles] plugin is automatically activated with the Human Resources Scoped App: Lifecycle Events for Enterprise [com.sn_hr_lifecycle_ent] plugin.
      For instructions on how to configure the business roles and map them to the relevant groups, see Configure a business role.
