Hello,
We are evaluating Syncope to be our provisioning engine, I could not find a way to achieve following MUST HAVE requirement in our project:

Associate MULTIPLE target resource entitlements (ex. ldap groups) to a ROLE: such that user assigned to the role will be provisioned corresponding resource entitlements.

Hi,
with Syncope you can assign external resource(s) to a role; this will

1. provision any user assigned to that role to the related external resource(s) - if such resource(s) have user mapping defined 2. provision such role to the related external resource(s) - if such resource(s) have role mapping defined and support group provisioning (currently only Active Directory, LDAP and possibly scripted SQL) 3. (only for LDAP & Active Directory) maintain Syncope membership (e.g. Syncope user is assigned to Syncope role) to external membership (e.g. LDAP user is in LDAP group)

Coming to your question: could you please provide an example of Syncope role mapped to several LDAP groups? A role can be assigned to multiple external resource(s) and you can of course define multiple LDAP resources using the same LDAP connector instance, but I am not sure of what you are trying to achieve.

Observation: Single Resource entitlement can be synchronized (reconciled) as ROLE in syncope and assigned to the user.

Corresponding feature in proprietory software -->
Oralce Identity Manager: Access Policy
IBM Tivoli Identity Manager: Provisioning Policy

Could you please clarify the use case you would like to replicate with Syncope?

Regards.
