Creating a Bootstrap Administrator User for Oracle Billing Insight


You must create a default bootstrap administrator user for Oracle Billing Insight. The bootstrap user is the only user with initial access to the Command Center and Assisted Service applications.

When you run the Command Center application for the first time, the bootstrap user is prompted to enroll (enter the bootstrap user ID and password) and then create a personal system administrator account. You must then create all of the other system administrator users you need for the Command Center using the bootstrap user ID. For details, see Administration Guide for Oracle Billing Insight.

When you run the Assisted Service application for the first time, the bootstrap user is prompted to enroll (enter the bootstrap user ID and password), and then create the first system administrator. For details about enrolling the bootstrap user in Assisted Service application, see Assisted Service Application Guide for Oracle Billing Insight.

Once you have created all of the system administrators you require in the Command Center, and created the initial administrator in the Assisted Service application, deactivate the bootstrap user ID in these applications to comply with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS). For details on deactivating the bootstrap user, see Implementation Guide for Oracle Billing Insight.

NOTE:  Preserve the bootstrap administrator ID and password. You can never change them. A database administrator can deactivate and reactivate the default bootstrap user access account. For details, see Implementation Guide for Oracle Billing Insight.
