Understanding User Roles and Allowed Actions

Important: The instructions in this chapter also apply to setting up user roles and allowed actions in the Web OMW. For more information about Web OMW, see the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Tools Object Management Workbench for the Web Guide

Object Management Workbench (OMW) is the primary component of the change management system for EnterpriseOne development. OMW automates many change management activities. OMW's automation relies on an administrator who carefully configures OMW roles and allowed actions, which makes configuring these areas one of the most important EnterpriseOne configuration tasks.

These sections show the allowed user actions that Oracle recommends for each user role and the responsibility of the person in that user role, organized by the project status at which these actions should be authorized.

For status changes that initiate a transfer, the user role must be authorized to perform both the status change and transfer actions.

Note: You might want to allow the Manager and Supervisor roles to perform the same actions as the Developer role, in case the Developer cannot perform assigned duties or needs to have work verified.
