User Attribute Selection

Owners can select up to six attributes regarding the users whose role assignments are reviewed in a certification.

• Some attributes have names beginning with the phrase "User-Role." These attributes apply to role assignments for which "security contexts" have been configured, via the Manage Data Access for Users task in Oracle Fusion Functional Setup Manager. These limit the data accessible to a user assigned a role. For example, a user assigned a role with a business-unit security context can use the role to access data associated with a specified business unit, but not other business units.

• The remaining attributes apply to values assigned directly to a user in the New Person work area of Human Capital Management.

The worksheets available to both certifiers and direct managers display the attribute values appropriate for each user-role record. Certifiers and direct managers can use attribute values to filter the user-role records within their worksheets.

Note: A role may define a hierarchy of other roles from which it inherits functional access. In that case, the parent role doesn't inherit "User-Role" attribute values from its child roles.

In worksheets, records display the attribute values that were current when a certification was created. If you modify the selection of attributes, existing certifications continue to supply values for the earlier attributes. Values for the newer attributes appear in certifications that are newly created after those attributes are selected.
