This chapter covers the following topics:
To implement Oracle Scripting, you must set up the following elements:
The users to set up and use Oracle Scripting facilities
The interfaces that you require to run Oracle Scripting scripts
The administrative consoles that you require to manage and control your scripts
Two types of Oracle Scripting user are required for your implementation:
Administrative
All implementations require one or more administrative users which may have varying attributes.
End user
Most end user setup is performed outside of Oracle Scripting, and depends on the Oracle Scripting interface that the end users will use to run the scripts.
For detailed information, see Understanding Users Required for Implementation.
You must have an understanding of which Oracle Scripting components, functions, and interfaces are required at your enterprise. Scripting components include Script Author, the Scripting Engine (which includes a Web interface and an agent interface), and two HTML user interfaces for administration: the Scripting Administration console and the Survey Administration console.
The table below outlines the tasks and sequence required to implement Oracle Scripting to meet your requirements.
| Task | Task Description | Required for | Consult documented tasks... |

| 1 | Create and administer Oracle Scripting administrators. | All | Creating an Administrator for Oracle Scripting |
| 2 | Create and administer Oracle Scripting end users. | All | Creating an Agent |
| 3 | Implement the Scripting Engine agent interface. | Agent UI | Implementing the Scripting Engine Agent Interface |

Details of the tasks outlined in the preceding table - the tasks that are required to implement Oracle Scripting - appear in the chapter Implementation Tasks.
Extra administrative tasks and further information about administering Oracle Scripting are described in the chapter Implementation Administration Tasks.
