Security for the Oracle Insurance Calculation Engine (OICE) system is configured in the Rules Palette. The Admin Explorer has a link for Application Security, which allows a security manager to enter new user information, edit user information, delete user information and manage security groups.

OICE security can be configured at three levels: company, plan and transaction. Within each level, access can be granted to users for pages, fields, masks and actions.

Levels for OICE Security

At each level, general access can be assigned at the top, which would allow a user to access all buttons on a particular page. Access can also be assigned at a very granular level, where a user may only be able to access one button on a particular page. Users can also be restricted from performing certain tasks at the activity level. For example, a user may only be able to process activities on the activity page, but may not be able to delete activities. Security in OICE allows for precise and detailed levels of restriction for all types of system users.

Each security group should only grant access to one primary company. Multiple primary companies cannot be viewed by one user login in OICE. If a user needs access to multiple primary companies, then separate security groups should be created for each company and the user should be assigned multiple login IDs.
