Role transaction Mapping
OBDX application has many roles for different type of users defined under different user segments i. e. Retail, Corporate, and Admin. These roles are defined for internal as well as for external touch points.
Application roles mapped to Internal Touch Points (Internet, Mobile Application, SIRI, Chatbot.etc.) are used by OBDX itself, whereas Application roles mapped to External Touch Points are defined for being used by third party system. Each External role is mapped to a scope (defined in Identity Management System) and the same scopes are mapped to External Touch Points in Touch Point Maintenance screen.
For Internal Touch Points, a user can perform only those transactions which are mapped to the application role assigned to that user. Whereas for External Touch Points, third party system can only perform only those transactions (on behalf of the user), which are mapped to the application role, mapped to the scope assigned to that external touch point (third party system).
Using this option a customer can define an Application role. Application Roles are mapped to Entitlements for various Touch Points, so that System AdministratorAdministrator is a set of individuals that administer the applicant/Affiliate entity. For example, Accountants, Authorized Signatories for organizations, Power of Attorney for individuals. can decide which all transactions should be available for which touch points.
