Class ImpactItem

java.lang.Object
  com.ibm.itim.apps.workflow.ImpactItem

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable

public class ImpactItem
extends java.lang.Object
implements java.io.Serializable

The ImpactItem class contains an individual object impacted by the completion of a workflow assignment. Each instance contains the object that was affected, the reason it was affected, and a list of child ImpactItems. Currently, this capability is only provided for user recertification packaged approval assignments. In that case the top-level objects in the ImpactItem will be of type Account, where the child items contain objects of type SystemRole, Group, or AccessInfo. Each object instance may contain a restricted set of attributes, which is enough information to understand and display the impact of the assignment completion.

If an ImpactItem instance contains a reason, then the object itself is affected. If the reason is null, then it is simply a container to organize the child ImpactItems.
