Admin Sponsorship Module
About the Sponsorship Module
The RapidIdentity Portal Sponsorship Module is a system an organization can use to manage special user account life cycles.
A special user account is any account that must be managed outside of an authoritative system (e.g. HRMS). Common Sponsor accounts can include contractors, other temporary positions, and volunteers.
Sponsors have privileges to perform these five actions.
Create accounts
Transfer accounts to another Sponsor
Expire accounts
Certify accounts (extend the expiration)
Delete accounts
If a User is a Sponsor's manager, the User can perform Sponsor account actions for any sponsored account pertaining to the Sponsor's manager.
Administrators can designate a group of users as Sponsorship Module Administrators also; anyone in this group will have an “Other Sponsorships” tab. Groups provide a mechanism to manage all sponsored accounts.
The advantage of this feature is to help other Sponsors manage accounts; the benefit is a workflow burden reduction in other organization departments, such as Customer Service.
