How can I disable Location-based Access when I am not signed in to the application?

You want to disable location-based access but you're locked out of the application and can't sign in to the Security Console. You must request access to the Administration Activity page using the URL provided to the administrators.

Make sure you have the following privileges:

  • ASE_ADMINISTER_SSO_PRIV

  • ASE_ADMINSTER_SECURITY_PRIV

After you request access to the Administration Activity page, you get an email at your registered email ID containing a URL with the following format:

https://<FA POD>/hcmUI/faces/AdminActivity

Click the URL and you're directed to a secure Administrator Activity page. Select the Disable Location Based Access option and click Submit. You receive a confirmation that location-based access is disabled. Immediately, you're redirected to the Oracle Applications Cloud page where you can sign in using your registered user name and password, and gain access to tasks and data as earlier.
