In addition to setting up common functions across all of Oracle Self-Service Web Applications, there are additional setup steps for each product. See:

Setting Up Web Requisitions

Step 1. From the Universal Desktop home page, change your SYSADMIN password.

Log in as SYSADMIN, using the password SYSADMIN. (Case is irrelevant.) Click General Preferences and change the SYSADMIN password.

Note: This is the SYSADMIN password for Oracle Self-Service Web Applications and should not be confused with the SYSADMIN password for Oracle Applications.

Step 2. Register users as employees, customers and/or suppliers.

Be sure to register your user as either a employee, customer, or supplier: See: Users Window.

Employee This user must be a valid employee in your Human Resources (HR) tables. See: Enter Person.

Customer This user must exist as a customer contact in your Receivables (RA) tables. Entering Customers.

Supplier This user must exist as a supplier contact within PO tables. See: Defining Supplier Lists.

Step 3. Create new menus.

You must create menus to assign to responsibilities. Menus can contain functions and other menus. See: Defining a New Menu Structure.

Step 4. Create new functions.

Functions define the individual application or utility access available to a user. You create functions by entering parameters and values, linking them to a function name. See: Form Functions Window.

Step 5. Create new responsibilities.

You need to create responsibilities to assign to users. A responsibility determines how much of an application's functionality a user can use. Each responsibility is then assigned functions. Once you create responsibilities, you must assign any securing and excluding attributes. See: Data Security and Responsibilities Window.

Step 6. Assign responsibilities to users.

Once you have created responsibilities, you must assign them to individual users. You must also assign securing attribute values to users. See: Users Window.

Step 7. Enter setup parameters.

Set up your page layout options, starting page URL, and your webmaster's email address. See: Setting Up Page Layout, Starting Page, and Webmaster Address.
