Shared Services Roles

All Oracle Hyperion Shared Services roles are power roles. Typically, these roles are granted to power users who are involved in administering Shared Services and other Oracle Enterprise Performance Management System products.

Table A-1 Shared Services Roles (Global Roles)

Role Description
Administrator

Shared Services Administrator role comprises these roles:

  • Create Integrations

  • Directory Manager

  • LCM Administrator

  • Manage Taskflows

  • Run Taskflows

  • Project Manager

  • Run Integrations

Provides control over all products that integrate with Shared Services. This is the most powerful EPM System role and should, therefore, be assigned sparingly. Administrators can perform all administrative tasks in Oracle Hyperion Shared Services Console and can provision themselves.

This role grants broad access to all applications registered with Shared Services. The Administrator role is, by default, assigned to the admin Native Directory user, who is the only user available after you deploy Shared Services.

Create Integrations Creates Shared Services data integrations (the process of moving data between applications) using a wizard
Directory Manager

Creates and manages users and groups within Native Directory

Granting Directory Manager and Provisioning Manager roles to one user allows the user to gain superior roles. Oracle recommends that you do not assign the Directory Manger role to users who have been assigned the Provisioning Manager role.

This role comprises these roles:

  • Directory Manager

  • LCM Designer

  • Manage Taskflows

  • Run Taskflows

  • Project Manager

  • Provisioning Manager
