When an employee is marked as terminated in Workday, the Identity Panel Suite automatically begins the deprovisioning process. This ensures that access to company systems is revoked promptly and securely, reducing both security risks and administrative workload.
How the Process Works
The Identity Panel Suite integrates with your HR system, such as Workday, to detect changes in employee status. When an employee’s status is updated to "terminated," the system automatically performs the following actions:
-
Disables the user’s account in systems like Active Directory or Azure AD
-
Revokes access to applications and shared resources
-
Removes group memberships and clears any role-based access
This process is part of the broader identity lifecycle management approach known as Joiner-Mover-Leaver (JML), which helps organizations manage user access from onboarding through offboarding.
Key Benefits
-
Security: Ensures that former employees cannot access sensitive systems
-
Speed: Deprovisioning starts immediately after HR updates Workday—no manual IT requests required
-
Compliance: Maintains detailed records of access removal and account status changes for audits
-
Efficiency: Automates a critical process, reducing manual tasks for IT teams
Why This Matters
Automated deprovisioning protects your organization by ensuring that user access is removed quickly and consistently. It supports compliance efforts and helps maintain a secure IT environment without adding extra steps for HR or IT teams.
If you need help reviewing how this process is configured in your environment, contact your identity governance administrator or submit a request to the support team.
