This article describes how an operator assigns a temporary card in Smart ID Identity Manager. Read more here: Smart ID Workforce use cases
The Assign temporary card use case is default enabled to run on an unassigned temporary card. To enable it for a user instead, see Enable Assign temporary card on the user. One active temporary card per user is allowed by default. For information about how to change this, see Temporary cards - Manage option to allow multiple active temporary cards.
Prerequisites
For the default scenario, when the process is run on the temporary card:
- The card(s) need to be in state "requested"
For the optional scenario, when the process is run on the user:
