# Entitlements

The entitlements or roles assignable to identities defined within a access management system are depending on the internal structure of a organisation.

Organisations tend to structure itself according to the services and products they provide. This gives us lots of possible models and therefore the engine behind [personify](http://personify.be/) is based on **generating** the identity management solutions based on a model.

{% hint style="info" %}
Important concepts when talking about entitlements is the **assignable to** and **assignable by** dimension of the entitlement. This is also dominated by the organisation structure.
{% endhint %}

To manage the internal identity management system, one can specify make the difference between **internal and custom** entitlements

**Internal entitlements** are defined with the purpose to control access to the entitles and workflows of the identity management solution itself : 3 possible entitlements and their definition are given below

**Custom entitlements** are created to give privileges to people in other *targetsystems*. These entitlements will be more subject to provisioning, given their nature. \
Examples of this are : Sharepoint, Git-access, Corporate network access, employee badge, ... .
