Create a Digital Customer Service Icon in Oracle B2B Service

Sometimes, when users perform certain actions in the Digital Customer Service application, they're redirected to the Oracle Fusion Service Dashboard. To make this path easier for your users, Oracle recommends that you include a Digital Customer Service icon within the user's dashboard.

Note: If you use a third-party identity management solution with Oracle Fusion Service, you must address the redirect issues within your deployment.
