This topic explains how to create the HCMUser implementation user and assign roles to the user.

Create the HCMUser Implementation User

Sign in as the Oracle HCM Cloud service administrator and follow these steps:

  1. In the Setup and Maintenance work area, go to the following:

    • Functional Area: Initial Users

    • Task: Create Implementation Users

  2. On the User Accounts page of the Security Console, click Add User Account.

  3. Complete the fields on the Add User Account page as shown in the following table.

    Field

    Value

    Associated Person Type

    None

    User Category

    DEFAULT

    Last Name

    HCMUser

    Email

    A valid email for the user

    User Name

    HCMUser

    Password

    Any value that complies with the password policy

    To view the password policy, click the Help icon by the Password field.

    Note: Make a note of the password. The user who first signs in as HCMUser must change the password.
  4. Leave the Active option selected.

Assign Roles to HCMUser

To assign job roles to the HCMUser implementation user, follow these steps:

  1. In the Roles section of the Add User Account page, click Add Role.

  2. In the Add Role Membership dialog box, search for the Application Administrator job role.

  3. In the search results, select the role and click Add Role Membership.

  4. Click OK to close the Confirmation dialog box.

  5. Repeat from step 2 to add each of the following job roles to the HCMUser user:

    • Application Implementation Consultant

    • Application Diagnostics Regular User

    • Application Diagnostics Viewer

    Four job roles now appear in the Roles section of the Add User Account page.

  6. Click Save and Close.

Note: Application Implementation Consultant is a powerful role that has unrestricted access to a large amount of data. After the implementation is complete, you're recommended to revoke this role from all users using the Revoke Data Role from Implementation Users task. For ongoing maintenance of Oracle HCM Cloud setup data, use a less powerful role. For example, use an HCM data role based on the Human Capital Management Application Administrator role.
