STEP 1: Create the study user account

Users can access Oracle InForm using either a single sign-on (SSO) account, or a non-SSO account. The type of account is determined by the Study Administrator.

How are user accounts created?

A study user can be created manually though the Oracle InForm User Management Tool user interface, or with the Joint Template (also called the MUL or Master Users List Template).

When you create a new user for an SSO study, Oracle InForm User Management Tool checks to see if the user is already a Global User by matching the user name and email address against existing Global Users.

  • If the user exists, Oracle InForm User Management Tool associates the new study user to the existing Global User.
  • If the user does not exist in the Global User list, it is automatically created.

The new user appears in the user interface in both the Study Users list and the Global Users list.
