User management
User roles are assigned to named user accounts for authentication and authorization
purposes. Oracle Fusion Applications primarily have two types of named users:
•
Users who configure and implement Oracle Fusion Applications: This type of
user is referred to as the
Implementation User
.
•
Users who administer Oracle Fusion Applications: This type of user is referred
to as the
Application User
.
Irrespective of the user type, each user is provisioned in OIM as well as created in the
Oracle Fusion Applications' table structures.
Implementation user
The primary implementation user is
FAADMIN
. This is a super user account created
during the installation process. This user has the following roles:
•
Application implementation role
•
IT security manager role
The IT security manager role includes the OIM roles that are required for user cre-
ation. These include the administrator and identity user administration roles.This su-
per user has all the access rights required to configure offerings and perform setup
tasks. The security guidelines dictate that at least one implementation user should be
created who will define the enterprise structure. In non-production environments, this
user can be limited to a single account.
Oracle Fusion Applications provide a task list for the creation of implementation users.
This task list is the
Create Implementation User
task list. The actions in this task list
direct the super user to specific OIM pages where the user is created.
Since implementation users are responsible for creating the enterprise structure, no
such structure exists when these users are created. Hence, implementation users,
when created, are not assigned to the HR structure, and no entries are created in
the
PER_USER
table. Implementation users will not have access to any functionality
in Oracle Fusion Applications until one of the following predefined roles is assigned to
them:
