Administrators and administrative users with the necessary permissions can configure users on the User Management page.

You can add a user in one of these ways:

The LDAP options are available only if you have configured Oracle Workbench to store user authentication in LDAP. For more information about using Oracle Commerce Workbench with LDAP, see the Integrating LDAP with Oracle Commerce Workbench.

To add a user to Oracle Commerce Workbench:

  1. From Administrative Tools, click User Management.

  2. Click the Users tab, and then click Add User.

    The Create User dialog displays.

  3. Select a Source. If your site uses Commerce SSO, then Commerce is already selected.

  4. Enter a name in the User ID field.

  5. If your Source is LDAP, click Validate to determine if you have entered a valid LDAP user name.

    If you entered a valid LDAP user name, then Workbench retrieves available user information and populates the name and email fields. This information and the user password is not editable.

  6. If your Source is Workbench, complete the following fields:

  7. If your Source is Commerce, click Validate to determine if you have entered a valid Commerce user name.

    If you entered a valid Commerce user or group name, then Workbench retrieves available information from the Oracle Commerce Platform internal user repository and populates the name, email, and locale fields. Only the locale is editable.

  8. If you want to change the locale from the one retrieved from the Oracle Commerce Platform internal user repository, select a different one for the user from the Locale drop-down.

    If you select System default, then Workbench checks for a locale that Workbench supports in this order:

  9. Select a group in which to add the user from the Select a group drop-down, and click the Include in Group button. Repeat this for each group in which you want to add the user.

    The user inherits the permissions of a group in which it is a member.

    A user who is a member of two or more groups defined in Workbench is assigned the broadest permission associated with any of those groups. For example, if the user belongs to two groups: group A has permission to use Experience Manager and group B does not, then the user has access to Experience Manager due to his or her membership in group A.

  10. If you want to give the user additional permission to use tools or to access content in your application that group membership does not provide, or if the user is not a member of any group, then follow these steps. You cannot use this procedure to remove permissions that a user is granted by membership in a group because permissions are additive. These permissions display in grey to indicate they cannot be removed.

  11. Click Save .

The new profile displays on the Users tab of the User Management page.
