As shown in the above sample screenshot, there are Organization, Organization Type for users and Organization for roles.

 

These fields come from a certificate template in Identity Governance.

Environment

Identity Portal R12.6.8 (Sigma 1.6.2)Note: Sigma 1.6.1 has more basic display for certification campaigns, therefore, it does not require removal of those fields.

Resolution

Notes: 

- When you remove Organization and/or other fields, other existing fields will take place and appear on the certification campaign in Sigma Portal. 

- The change only takes effect on new certification campaigns.
