Detailed Description

Impact Assessment

This feature has limited impact but should be reviewed to confirm alignment with business processes in Identity and Access Management implementations. As a Role-Based Permissions administrator, you can now create a role assignment with the access population set to managers. You can also set the granted users' managers and peers as the target population. Implementation teams should verify that existing configurations remain valid and test core business scenarios after the upgrade to confirm correct behavior.

Test Recommendations
• Verify the feature is enabled and accessible from the expected navigation path or configuration area in a test environment. • Test the end-to-end scenario with representative test data covering both happy paths and error conditions. • Validate correct behavior across all relevant user roles and permission configurations (admin, manager, employee). • Test edge cases: empty or missing values, boundary conditions, concurrent users, and large data sets. • Confirm that existing integrations, workflows, and downstream processes are not affected by the change. • Validate report and dashboard output accuracy against source data and prior runs. • Test feature visibility and access controls across different RBP roles to confirm correct enforcement.
