Security Issues

After you set up address book and master records for customers and suppliers, you must set up user profiles to limit the customers' and suppliers' access to the system. Customers and suppliers must have profiles before they can sign in to any self-service applications.

In the user profile, you specify this information for a customer or supplier:

  • User ID.

  • Password.

  • Preferences, such as language and localization information.

You must also specify the menu that you want the supplier or customer to be able to access. Suppliers and customers can access only the programs that are on the menu that you specify in the user profiles. Specify one of these menus, depending on the type of user:

  • Daily Self-Service Processing (G1715) for customers who need access to self-service programs in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Service Management system from Oracle.

  • Supplier Self-Service (G43S11), for suppliers who need access to self-service programs in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Procurement system.

When a customer or supplier enters information using self-service programs, the system stores product selections and other information in a memory cache file. The customer or supplier can move between programs, and the cache file retains the current contents of the order or quote.
