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.

Note:

The delegated administrators at your organization are the first ones to activate their accounts in Oracle Life Sciences IAMS and complete the prerequisites to create Oracle Life Sciences SSO accounts. Other Oracle Life Sciences users do not receive details on activating their accounts until a delegated administrator creates them as described in this guide. For more details, see Account creation prerequisites.

The number of messages you get from Oracle Identity Manager depends on your role and the method your organization chose to reset expired or forgotten passwords. For example, you can receive one of the following:

• New Account (one notification message):

  Sent to users who reset their passwords through a web page (no security questions).

  A New Account message contains the Oracle Life Sciences SSO user name, a link to create a password, and a link to sign in through Oracle Life Sciences IAMS to activate the account. Depending on what your organization chose, you may open Oracle Life Sciences IAMS from Oracle Health Sciences My Oracle Bookmarks or the Oracle Health Science Cloud landing page.

• New Account and Account Password (two notification messages):

  Sent to the first Oracle Life Sciences user (usually one to two administrators) and users who reset their passwords after answering security questions.

  The New Account notification message contains the Oracle Life Sciences SSO user name. The Account Password message contains a temporary password to log in for first time with a link to open Oracle Life Sciences IAMS through Oracle Health Science Cloud. After you enter your temporary password, you see prompts to reset it.

For more details, see one of the following topics:

• Activate your account with one notification message
  To activate your Oracle Life Sciences SSO account, create a new password and sign in to Oracle Life Sciences IAMS with the user name shown in the New Account email.
• Activate your account with two notification messages
  To activate your Oracle Life Sciences SSO account, create a new password and sign in to Oracle Life Sciences IAMS with the user name shown in the New Account email. If you also received an Account Password message, you must enter the temporary password and add challenge questions before you create a new password.
