[midPoint] Notification or approval for attribute change

[Pavol Mederly]

Hello Brad,

you could have a look at policy rules 
<https://wiki.evolveum.com/display/midPoint/Policy+Rules>. In 
particular, using policy conditions you can recognize situations when 
object is modified (i.e. not added nor deleted) and specific property is 
changed. And using policy actions you can do whatever you need, e.g. 
send notification ("notification" action), initiate approval ("approval" 
action), do any change ("scriptExecution" action), etc.

Setting of current timestamp value to a database table (attached to the 
user as a resource) should be doable also using mappings, provided that 
appropriate condition (user is not new) is written.

Best regards,
