Organization Categories in the Identity Management
The organizational directory of RWTH Aachen University maps all of the university's organizations. It serves as an important foundation for supporting digitalized processes. Each organization can have a role administration set up to manage authorizations for the university's IT services. Different types of organizations are distinguished by categories.
The assignment and maintenance of each category is carried out by Dept. 5.1. The category assigned to your organization can currently be viewed by the holders of the "Verwaltung Organisationseinheit" (administration organizational unit) role in the organizational directory.
The introduction of categories particularly facilitates the registration of additional groups of people in the university's Identity Management system who are not accessed via the central systems such as the Campus Management System (students, external lecturers) or the university's HR management system (employees).
