---|---|
Enable | • The user can access the system. • The user can process records according to the authorization model. • The user must be active in the Security Repository to fully accessOracle Utilities Operational Device Management. |
Disable | • The user cannot access the system regardless of the security setup. • The user record is retained for audit purposes only. • The user does not have to exist in the Security Repository. • The key use cases for this option are as follows: • Support for personnel (permanent or temporary) leaving: Manually deactivate users once they leave the organization yet keep the information for auditing purposes. • Logical deletion: If the user needs to be deleted for any reason, selecting this option removes the user record, preventing access to the system. • Temporary disablement: If business rules need to isolate the user record, selecting this option for the appropriate users can effectively deactivate their access to Oracle Utilities Operational Device Management. Note: Deactivation of the user record will take effect when the user logs in to the system or after the security cache refreshes. |
