To modify a search screen
  1. In the User Console, select Roles and Tasks, Admin Tasks, Modify Admin Task.

    Identity Manager
    displays the tabs to configure for the task you selected.
  3. Select the Search tab.
  4. (Optional) Select the Modified objects must remain in administrator's scope check box.
    When this check box is selected,
    Identity Manager
    displays an error if changes to the task cause the administrator to lose scope over the primary object. For example, an administrator may use Modify User to change a user's Employee Type attribute to Manager. This change may put the user outside the administrator's scope.
    This option does not appear for tasks that manage roles.
