How do I re-enable a disabled user ID?

The Status of a user ID is stored in the Users table and indicates whether a user ID is *ENABLED or *DISABLED. Log in to Order Management System using another user ID and advance to Working with User Records (WUSR) to re-enable a user.

Note: After you re-enable a user ID, the user ID remains disabled until the Lockout Duration specified in the User Lockout options in WebLogic has passed. See Protecting User Accounts in the Configuring Security for a WebLogic Domain section of the Oracle WebLogic Server documentation for more information: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E24329_01/web.1211/e24422/domain.htm#SECMG402

Certain screens are not displaying correctly; when I advance to them, only the screen title displays and the rest of the screen is blank. How do I fix this?

How do I restart Order Management System?

See Restarting Order Management System.

Why is the screen sometimes blank when I return to it after an interval, and how do I correct it?

Certain screens “time out” after a period of inactivity. If you return to Order Management System and, after you click an option, the body of the screen goes blank, but the icons are still displayed in the upper right area, you can:

• click the My Jobs icon ()

• select Exit at the Job Management Screen

You should be able to return to standard operations.

This timeout issue occurs only with certain screens, including:

• the screens in Streamlined Order Inquiry (DORI)

• the Display Order Broker Details Screen

• the Brokered Backorder Summary Screen

Note: Since only certain screens are subject to the time out, it sometimes occurs that you return to your Order Management System session after a period of inactivity and are able to work for awhile until you advance to one of the affected screens, and then you see a timeout message. In this situation, you need to close your browser window and start a new session.
