Assign Job Roles
You use role-based access control to protect data and to limit access to application resources. For example, your role might enable you to view your shopping cart, but not other's shopping cart.
A job role defines a user's business function. As a tenant administrator, you must ensure that users are assigned appropriate job roles to access the application.
Here are the predefined job roles for accessing Buying Experience. These job roles are mapped as groups in Oracle Identity Cloud Service.

In 22C and onward versions of the Buying Experience application that use the CX Industry Framework IDCS instead of the Fusion Applications IDCS, Buying job roles aren’t mapped as IDCS groups. They’re instead mapped as application roles in the Buying Experience application. Ensure that you recreate users and subscribers in the CX Industries Framework IDCS, and assign roles accordingly.
