Notes

  • A CSR inherits the same rights and privileges as the user he or she is impersonating.

Main Path to Search for User

The following path describes this use case:

  1. The CSR selects a user and clicks the Impersonate link.
  2. Oracle Self-Service E-Billing opens an impersonation session in a new browser for the selected user, while maintaining the existing CSR navigation for the CSR user.
  3. The CSR navigates through the application as an end user.
  4. The CSR exits the impersonated user session in a way that is clearly marked for its purpose. Recommended method is to 'Logout' from Impersonation session.
  5. Oracle Self-Service E-Billing ends impersonation session for the selected user and returns the CSR to the search screen.
