Account basics

Tasks that Oracle completes for you
As a delegated administrator, you do most of the work in Oracle Life Sciences Identity and Access Management Service. However, there is a list of tasks that Oracle completes for you. This makes it easier for you to manage user administration tasks and helps you save time when enabling your team to begin their work in the application.

Single sign-on accounts
You use a single sign-on (SSO) account to securely authenticate with Oracle sites or applications with one set of credentials (user name and password).

Oracle Life Sciences Identity and Access Management Service
Once a delegated administrator creates your Oracle Life Sciences SSO account, you can use Oracle Life Sciences Identity and Access Management Service (Oracle Life Sciences IAMS) to activate your account, access secure Oracle Life Sciences applications, and manage your account.

Oracle Life Sciences SSO account notification
Once your administrator creates your Oracle Life Sciences single sign-on (SSO) in Oracle Life Sciences IAMS, you receive up to two email messages with account activation instructions.

Bookmarks
All users must open Oracle Life Sciences IAMS periodically to manage their Oracle Life Sciences SSO accounts. (Delegated administrators at your organization use Oracle Life Sciences IAMS more frequently.) You can save time if you create a bookmark to Oracle Life Sciences IAMS.
