Options for Reviewing Predefined Roles

There are many ways to access information about predefined roles. You can use the Security Console or the Sales and Service Access Management Work Area. There are user reports. And, you can consult the security reference manuals.

Note: For best practices around assigning predefined roles, see Guidance for Assigning Predefined Roles.

Security Console

Let's briefly review the Oracle Applications Cloud Security Console. On the Security Console, you can:

Review the role hierarchy of any job, abstract, or duty role.
Extract the role hierarchy to a spreadsheet.
Identify the function security privileges and data security policies granted to a role.
Compare roles to identify differences.

Tip: Predefined roles have the code prefix ORA_.

For more information about the Security Console, see Overview of Security Console.

User and Role Reports

You can run the User and Role Access Audit Report to produce an XML-format report of the function security privileges and data security policies for a specified role, all roles, a specified user, or all users.

Security Reference Manuals

These guides describe the security reference implementation for Oracle Sales and Fusion Service users:

These guides contain a section for each predefined job and abstract role. For each role, you can review:

Duty roles
Role hierarchy
Function security privileges
Data security policies

You can access the security reference manuals on Oracle Help Center.

Sales and Service Access Management Work Area

You can review the visibility provided by a job role to object data in the Sales and Service Access Management work area. You can display a read-only view of all the data security policies provided by a selected role for a selected object.
