Create Aftermarket Extensibility Administrative User

Use this topic to create an aftermarket extensibility administrative user.

You can now extend the product offering entity by specifying a list of fields to be extended using the Launch user interface. The administrative user for this function can upload the spreadsheet containing the list of fields to be extended. The fields should be simple attributes of type text, number and check box.

For example, if a communications service provider wants to extend the product offering entity, say, SupremoProductOfferingInfo with the additional field partnerBrand and similar other fields, the user with the custom job role Catalog Extension Management Duty Role has the privileges for this extension.

Here's how you can create the user for this role:

  1. In the security console, click Roles.
  2. Click Create role.
  3. Create a CRM job role by entering a unique role name and role code.
  4. Go to the Role Hierarchy tab and search for Catalog Extension.
  5. Select the Catalog Extension Management duty role.
  6. Verify the function security policies listed in the tab.
  7. Ensure that these are configured in the above list:
    • Manage Extensible Object
    • Manage Catalog Extension
    • View Catalog Extension
    • View Extension Tile
    Note: The Administer Sandbox privilege must be added manually from Add Function Security Policy even if it's inherited from the Catalog Extension Management duty role.
  8. Click Add Function Security Policy, search for the Administer Sandbox privilege and click Add Privilege to Role.
  9. Go to the Users tab, and click Add User.
  10. Select the user you want to configure the role for.
  11. Click Add user to Role.
  12. Save the job role.
