Manage HCM User Accounts

Human resource specialists (HR specialists) can manage user accounts for users whose records they can access. This topic describes how to update a Human Capital Management (HCM) user account.

To access the user account page for a person:

  1. On the My Client Groups tab, find and select the Manage User Account quick action. You must click Show More if it isn't visible by default.

  2. Search for and select the person whose account you're updating.

IT Security Managers can manage user accounts and user roles using the security console. For more information, see the topic Oracle Fusion Applications Security Console .

Manage User Roles

To add a role:

  1. Click Add Role.

    The Add Role dialog box opens.

  2. In the Role Name field, search for the role that you want to add. The list of available roles is decided by role provisioning rules that have been configured using the Role Mappings UI.

  3. In the search results, select the role and click OK.

  4. Click Save.

To remove a role:

  1. Select the role and click Remove.

  2. In the Warning dialog box, click Yes to continue.

  3. Click Save.

To update a user's roles automatically, select Actions > Update Role Assignments. This action applies to roles for which the Autoprovision option is selected in all current role mappings. The user immediately:

  • Acquires any role for which they qualify but don't currently have

  • Loses any role for which they no longer qualify

You're recommended to autoprovision roles for individual users if you know that additional or updated role mappings exist that affect those users.

Synchronize Personal Data with Identity Store

By default, changes to personal data, such as person name and phone, are copied to your Identity Store periodically. To copy any changes immediately:

  1. Select Actions > Synchronize with Identity Store.

  2. Click Synchronize.

Reset Passwords

To reset a user's password:

  1. Select Actions > Reset Password.

  2. In the Warning dialog box, click Yes to continue.

    This action sends a notification containing a reset-password link to the user's work email.

    Note: A notification template for the password-reset event must exist and be enabled for the user's user category. Otherwise, no notification is sent.

Edit User Names

To edit a user name:

  1. Select Actions > Edit User Name.

  2. In the Update User Name dialog box, enter the user name and click OK. The maximum length of the user name is 80 characters.

  3. Click Save.

This action sends the updated user name to your Identity Store. Once the request is processed, the user can sign in using the updated name. As the user receives no automatic notification of the change, you're recommended to send the details to the user.
