Yes. In SailPoint IdentityIQ, birthright roles represent access that is automatically granted based on identity context, such as job function, department, location, lifecycle state, or organizational assignment. A mover lifecycle event occurs when an identity undergoes a material change, such as transfer to a new department, change in manager, change in location, or change in business role eligibility. Because these changes can alter what baseline access the identity should have, birthright role assignment may be processed as part of the mover event.
The mover event can launch a configured business process that evaluates the identity’s updated attributes and initiates access changes, including assignment of new birthright roles or removal of access no longer appropriate. This differs from requestable roles, where a user or manager explicitly asks for access through Lifecycle Manager. Birthright access is driven by identity state and business rules.
Therefore, the statement is accurate. Mover lifecycle processing can be used to keep baseline role-based access aligned with the user’s changed business position.
