Where You Perform Subscriptions Setup Tasks

You mainly access two work areas to set up, configure, and manage Oracle Subscription Management: the Setup and Maintenance and Subscription Configuration work area.

Setup and Maintenance Work Area

For most setup tasks, you use the Setup and Maintenance work area to access the setup pages associated with the component or feature. The Setup and Maintenance work area is also known as the Functional Setup Manager.

Here's the procedure to access the Setup and Maintenance work area:

1. Sign in as a user with access to the setup areas, such as the initial user, another setup user, or the administrator.

   Caution: The administrator doesn't have the same setup permissions as a setup user. See the Implementing Sales guide topics on setup users for more information on creating setup users.

2. Navigate to Setup and Maintenance. The Setup page appears with an offering selected.

3. In the Setup and Maintenance work area, select the Sales offering. The Setup: Sales page appears with a list of functional areas.

4. In the list of functional areas, click the functional area that has the tasks you need to access.

5. In the list of tasks, find the task you want and select it.

   Tip: If the task you want isn't in the list, click Show > All Tasks in the tasks filter.

6. Make your changes in the setup page for the task.

For more information about Functional Setup Manager, see the Oracle Applications Cloud Using Functional Setup Manager guide and the related topics.

Subscription Configuration Work Area

Once you have done the setups in the Setup and Maintenance work area, go to the Subscription Configuration work area to configure these rules:

• Subscription Rules

• Event Models

• Entitlement Availability and Coverage

• Dynamic Matrix Configuration

• Asset Lifecycle Management

• Subscription Preview

You must have the Subscription Specialist role to access Subscription Management.
