Understanding User and Role Profiles

Use the User Profile Revisions (P0092) application to add users and set up user profiles. For every user, you must create a user profile, which defines such information as a list of environments that a user can select when signing in to JD Edwards EnterpriseOne and the language preference of the user. You can also assign roles to users. A role defines the tasks that an end user sees in EnterpriseOne.

You can use P0092 to define specific users or roles. This definition includes:

• The role to which a user belongs.

  Roles are an important aspect of EnterpriseOne. By assigning users to roles, system administrators can set user preferences and security records that are based on the roles rather than the individual user. For example, an accounts payable clerk would be part of the AP role.

• The environments that the user can select when signing in to EnterpriseOne.

• The language preference and country code for the text that appears on EnterpriseOne menus, forms, and country-specific applications.
