Description

Tested on 11.0
Our role has one role attribute, which has to be unique. The role also assigns a system.
During assigning the role to a user, the validation works great - non-unique value can't be saved, unique value can be saved.
After the role is correctly assigned, the form in Audit -> Request for roles displays the message that the value is not unique, even if it is unique. (This is displayed when "Show changes only" is active.)

This was confusing especially when we had a problem in the provisioning, because then the role request displays a failure. This failure is not connected to the unique attribute, but it looks like it is, see below:

I understand the confusion, but the request tells the truth. The value already exists in an identity-role. Here I suggest turning off validation when the request/concept is resolved/terminated.

I found out that I can't edit the already assigned role, which has a unique attribute.
Use case:
The role is assigned to the user with some unique value. I want to edit:
  • validity of the role (see the screenshot below)
  • value of some other attribute of the same role (not on the screenshot)
    But the form doesn't let me save it.

This was surprisingly hard to solve.
Concept validation was done correctly against idenity-roles. The mechanism for skipping unique validation for itself was not working correctly in a situation where the concept was validated. In this case, the id of the value was not the id of the identity-role as the mechanism in formService needs.
Simply changing the id was not possible because the concept value must have a unique id.

I solved this problem by using a combination of: skipping validation, transforming the concept value ID to the identity-role value ID, and checking the state of the concept.

Test remains.
