Manage User-Defined Roles

This chapter explains how you can create users with the required roles and privileges to complete the application setup. This includes granting specific privileges to initial users and other users as well.

Note: After an update, custom roles that you had created, don't automatically get new privileges as part of the update. You must manually add these new privileges to your custom roles. For more information, see Securing CX Sales and Fusion Service. If you copied or cloned roles then you can use the Security Console to compare each default seeded role with your custom role and update your custom role if required. For details, see Securing Applications guide.

Create User-Defined Roles

To create user-defined roles, you must configure the standard roles shipped with Oracle CX Service.

For example, here you create and configure the DX4C Communications Customer Service Representative (user-defined role) and map it to the Communications Customer Service Representative (standard role) to work with the agent care features.

Before you begin, consider these points:

  • You're required to create roles as part of the initial setup.

  • Ensure that you don't create roles during upgrades or while updating the configuration.

Here's how you create the DX4C Communications Customer Service Representative role.

  1. Go to Navigator > Tools > Security Console.

  2. In the Roles tab, search and select the Communications Customer Service Representative job role.

  3. In Search Result Count, select the drop-down list corresponding to the role name: Communications Customer Service Representative. Click Copy Role.

  4. On the Copy Options dialog box, select Copy top role and inherited roles, and click Copy Role.
