Give Setup Users Permissions to See All Scheduled Processes
Setup users need to run and monitor several scheduled processes during implementation. By default, users can only see the scheduled processes that they themselves submit. However, if you create a custom role and assign your the setup users to it, you ensure that all of them can see which processes are running and their status, no matter who submitted them.
Note: In Oracle applications, scheduled processes are commonly
referred to as ESS jobs (Enterprise Scheduler Service jobs).
Here's how to add the custom role and assign users to it:
- As a setup user, navigate to the Security Console.
- Click the Roles tab.
- On the Roles tab, click Create Role.
- In the Create Role: Basic Information step, make the entries suggested in this
table:

- Click the Users step.
- Click Add User and add all of the setup users by searching for each by name and clicking Add User to Role.
- Click Cancel when you're done. The Users step should list all of the users you added.
- Click Next to get to the Summary and Impact Report step.

The users you added to the role can now monitor all of the scheduled processes in the Schedule Processes work area.
