Database Access Without Online Access
You may need to set up access restrictions for employees who never use Oracle HRMS windows and do not change database information, but do access the database. These individuals are reporting users. A reporting user can use Oracle reporting tools to access database information for reports. A reporting user can report on, or query, the information in the HRMS database, but cannot insert, update, or delete that information.
You can make any of your security profiles available not only for regular Oracle HRMS users, but also for reporting users. The security profile restricts a reporting user's access to employee records in exactly the same way as it limits regular users' access.
