3 User Roles

Roles are used to classify users based on job responsibilities and actions to be performed in the Oracle Retail Process Orchestration and Monitoring application (POM). Using roles, a user's access can be restricted to specific areas or functions within the application. In POM, users must be associated with at least one job role in order to access the application.

The following topics are covered in this chapter:

Roles

Functional Access by Role

Roles

POM comes available with a set of pre-defined roles described in the table below. In addition to the roles, the table contains an alias for each role which is used in the next section for easier reading.

Note:

The first two roles have thus far been associated with POM's classic user interface and are being deprecated along with the classic user interface itself. Customers need to migrate to the other four roles before those classic roles are removed.

These roles have been given similar access in the new user interface as the access they had in the classic user interface.

Table 3-1 Roles
