Yes. In SailPoint IdentityIQ, the Identity Warehouse is used to review identity-centric information stored in the IdentityCube. For identities that are managers, IdentityIQ can display the list of identities that report to that manager. This information is derived from the manager relationship established during identity aggregation, correlation, and identity refresh processing.
The direct-report relationship is not an application account attribute by itself once modeled in IdentityIQ; it becomes part of the identity model. IdentityIQ uses manager correlation to associate each identity with its manager, and when those relationships are resolved, the manager identity can show its subordinate identities as direct reports. This is important for governance because managers are frequently used as certifiers, approvers, and reviewers in access review and request workflows.
The display of direct reports depends on the identity data being populated correctly and the viewer having permission to access the identity details. However, as a functional capability of the Identity Warehouse, direct reports for manager identities are part of the identity information that can be displayed.
