1 Overview of Access Control
The Oracle Fusion Cloud Enterprise Performance Management and Oracle Enterprise Data Management Cloud environments are secured with multiple layers of protection. Access is restricted to authorized users using role-based access (predefined roles). Predefined role assignments are managed using the Oracle Cloud Console. For example, to permit user John Doe to view reports belonging to a Planning test environment, he should be assigned to the Viewer role of the environment. For more information, see Understanding Predefined Roles in Getting Started Guide for Administrators .
To enable more granular control over the use of Cloud EPM business processes or Oracle Enterprise Data Management Cloud, users can further be assigned application-specific roles through Access Control. For example, a user or group can be assigned to the Approval Administrator role in a Planning application, enabling them to perform approval-related activities.
It’s important to note that assigning roles at the application-level will only enhance the user’s access rights. These application-specific roles cannot revoke or restrict the privileges granted by predefined roles.
Access Control enables you to complete these activities in an environment:
-
Manage Groups. See Managing Groups
-
Manage Users. See Assigning a User to Many Groups
-
Manage Application Roles. See Managing Role Assignments at the Application Level
-
Role Assignment Report. See:
- User Login Report. See Viewing the User Login Report
- User Group Report. See Viewing the User Group Report
