User Account Creation Option

The User Account Creation option controls whether user accounts are created automatically when you create a person or party record. Use the Manage Enterprise HCM Information task to set this option.

This table describes the User Account Creation option values.

Value	Description
Both person and party users	User accounts are created automatically for both person and party users. This value is the default value.
Party users only	User accounts are created automatically for party users only. User accounts aren't created automatically when you create person records. Instead, account requests are held in the LDAP requests table, where they're identified as suppressed. They're not processed.
None	User accounts aren't created automatically. All user account requests are held in the LDAP requests table, where they're identified as suppressed. They're not processed.

If user accounts are created automatically, then role provisioning also occurs automatically, as specified by current role mappings when the accounts are created. If user accounts aren't created automatically, then role requests are held in the LDAP requests table, where they're identified as suppressed. They aren't processed.

If you disable the automatic creation of user accounts for some or all users, then you can:

• Create user accounts individually on the Security Console.

• Link existing user accounts to person and party records using the Manage User Account or Manage Users task.

Alternatively, you can use an external provisioning infrastructure to create and manage user accounts. In this case, you're responsible for managing the interface with Oracle Applications Cloud, including any user-account-related updates.
