account management - large enterprises

Is there any general best practice to manage user permissions for windows security groups for departmental "movers"? How do you manage this in your companies (especially in large enterprises). For example user Y works in accounts, is a memeber of "company-accounts-team" group which is granted access to various directories on departmental file servers, they also have a couple of departmental mailboxes. When they move to payroll from accounts there accounts permissions are no longer acceptable, what do you do process wise to identify this and change permissions accordingly?

Is there like a management form they have to fill out to inform you though when a user moves role? How do you know otherwise that permissions are no longer valid?
Permissions are changed with group membership changes (The user will get the permissions from the new group and will no longer get permissions from the old group if they are removed).
Departmental managers or similar would need to approve the request to move groups in writing. Depends on your organisation but obviously you will need some sort of confirmation that a user can move groups.
