Question #: 83

Question #: 83
Topic #: 1
Below are the requirements for configuring user provisioning in an organization's Finance department.
* Contractors in the organization MUST NOT be auto-provisioned with the default Office 365 license, as contractors in departments other than Finance have different license requirements.
* Every Finance department user - whether employee or contractor - must be assigned one Office 365 E3 license.
* No Finance employee or contractor should be provisioned more than one type of Office 365 license.
Is this a valid approach for the Identity Security Administrator to provide the necessary access?
Proposed Solution / Statement:
Create an ISC Role with membership criteria that includes all Finance department contractors. Assign an Access Profile associated with the default Office 365 license. Add these users to the Office 365 E3 license entitlement so they receive an account with the default Office 365 license and the required E3 license.
Does this proposed solution meet the requirement / solve the scenario?

Suggested Answer: B Vote an answer
This approach directly violates the stated requirements. The scenario explicitly requires Finance users to receive an Office 365 E3 license and further states that no Finance employee or contractor should receive more than one type of Office 365 license. The proposed configuration assigns Finance contractors both the default Office 365 license through an access profile and the Office 365 E3 license separately.
Identity Security Cloud access profiles are bundles of entitlements that can be automatically provisioned through role assignment. If an access profile containing the default license is included in the role, that access will be granted when the contractor satisfies the role criteria. Adding E3 separately would therefore produce the duplicate-license condition the design is expressly intended to prevent.
The solution is additionally incomplete because it targets only Finance contractors while the requirement applies to every Finance department user , including employees. A better design is one Finance role whose assignment criteria encompass all Finance users and whose access contains only the required E3 license.
