How do I assign a parts catalog to a user type?

When you've many parts catalogs in an environment, you can assign each catalog to specific user types. With this, users can use only those catalogs that are applicable to them and the application can download only the required catalogs for offline use.

Prerequisites:

  • The parts catalogs are available in Oracle Field Service (they're uploaded using APIs).
  • The Parts Catalog button is added to the Configuration page with Read-write visibility.

    To assign a parts catalog:

  1. Click Configuration > Parts Catalogs.
  2. Click the action buttons on the catalog for which you want to assign user types and then click Assign to user types.
  3. On the Assign Parts Catalog to User Types page, select the required user types.
  4. Click Assign.
    When you assign or unassign a parts catalog to a user type, you can view it on the Configuration History report.
