Before You Begin

You must configure Oracle Identity Cloud Service as an identity provider for E-Business Suite Asserter, Oracle E-Business Suite as a target application, and E-Business Suite Asserter as the single sign-on provider for Oracle E-Business Suite.

  • Download the Oracle JRE/JDK version 8 or later.

  • Download the Java Cryptography Extension file for Java 8.

  • Access to an instance of Oracle Identity Cloud Service, rights to download the E-Business Suite Asserter from the console, and rights to register a confidential application.

  • Get access to an instance of Oracle E-Business Suite Release 11i (11.5.10) or Release 12 (12.1.3, 12.2.4, or greater), with the latest patch applied.

  • Get access to a separate instance of Oracle WebLogic Server 12c (12.1.3 and 12.2) using the Java SE Development Kit 8 or Java EE 8.

  • In the Oracle WebLogic Server 12c, create a managed server named EBSAsserter_server to deploy the E-Business Suite Asserter Java application
