User interface enhancements

The following enhancements have been made to the user interface in this release.

Improved user interface on Role page

The Role page in the Oracle Life Sciences IAMS Identity Self Service console has been improved to more clearly describe options for self-service registration, the approval workflow, and publishing the role to external organizations.

  • The following button labels have been renamed:
    • Select Authz Error Page is now Set Unauthorized Access Page
    • Publish Role to Organization is now Publish Role to External Organization
    • Enable/Disable Approval is now Set Approval Options
  • The Set Unauthorized Access Page dialog box now displays radio buttons instead of a drop-down list and includes a brief description of each option. The current setting is selected when the dialog box opens.
  • The Publish Role to External Organization dialog box now displays assistive text and a list of available external organizations instead of a drop-down list. To publish the role to an organization, you now select its check box and click Submit. Organizations to which the role is already published appear grayed out and cannot be deselected.
  • The Set Approval Options dialog box now displays radio buttons to activate or deactivate the approval workflow. A check box for the Activate Approval option allows you to choose whether to notify the user of the request status. The current settings are selected when the dialog box opens.

Conditions for answers to challenge questions added to interface

The conditions for answers to challenge questions were not displayed, making it difficult for users to define acceptable answers.

The software has been updated so that the challenge question conditions are displayed on the My Information, Forgot Password, and Password Management pages where users define or edit answers.

Current release number shown on Login page

The Oracle Health Sciences Single Sign-on (SSO) login page has been updated to show the current Oracle Life Sciences IAMS release number.

New text for error page

If users bookmark a login URL instead of the URL of the application they are trying to access, they now see a message directing them to use the correct URL.

Improved text in email templates

The wording in the subject and in the message for default email templates has been simplified and updated for consistency.

Text updates for consistency

The Oracle Health Sciences Single Sign-on (SSO) login page, My Information page, Forgot Password page, and the default email templates were updated to use the term User Login to refer to the account user name.
