Security for Individual Supplier Information

Use the Personally Identifiable Information (PII) framework to protect tax identifiers for suppliers classified as individuals.

PII refers to the framework in Oracle Fusion Applications for protecting sensitive data for an individual. Additional security privileges are required for users to view and maintain such data.

The predefined job roles Supplier Administrator and Supplier Manager include data security polices to maintain tax identifiers for suppliers classified as individuals. Only users with these roles can view and maintain the following tax identifiers for individual suppliers:

  • Taxpayer ID

  • National Insurance Number

Individual suppliers are defined as suppliers with a Tax Organization Type of Individual or Foreign Individual.

Other users without these roles can still search and access individual suppliers. They are restricted from viewing or updating the tax identifiers for these suppliers.

Similar PII data security is also enforced in the Supplier Registration and Supplier Profile Change Management flows. Only users with the Supplier Administrator and Supplier Manager roles can view or maintain the tax identifier information for an individual supplier's registration approval request or profile change request.

Note: The tax registration number is protected as a PII attribute in the supplier registration and profile change management flows. Only users with the Supplier Individual Identifiers PII data policy can view or maintain tax registration number for supplier registration requests or profile change requests.
