Assigning Privileges to Allow Installing and Authenticating Workstation Clients

The ability to download software, install and authenticate point of sales (POS) clients and service hosts using CAL, is controlled by employee Role option 10065 - Download Software, Install and Authenticate Clients and Service Hosts Using CAL.

When enabled, the User Security Credentials configured in the Property Parameters module become inactive, allowing employees to use their EMC login credentials as the Installer Username and Installer Password when setting up POS clients.

The Oracle MICROS Simphony Configuration Guide contains more information on enabling employee role privileges.

External Content Security

Oracle MICROS Simphony allows users with administrator privileges to extend or customize the behavior of their workstations by way of uploading externally generated content such as extensibility applications and SIM scripts.

Due to the nature of this content, Oracle Food and Beverage recommends ensuring those files are safe and scanned with anti-malware/anti-virus tools (if applicable) prior to their being uploaded.
