Activate the Enhanced Worksheet for Access Certifications

Oracle Fusion Cloud Access Certifications enables your organization to perform reviews that determine whether roles are assigned properly to users. You can activate an enhanced certifier worksheet for use with this application, and you can enable it to display role briefings.

The certifier worksheet is a pivotal tool. Any number of certifiers may be involved in a certification project, each using a certifier worksheet to record judgments about a set of role assignments included in the project. Users known as owners and role managers supervise the certifiers, reviewing their worksheets in the process.

By default, however, the application provides an original worksheet. The enhanced worksheet offers an updated, cleaner design; improved filtering, search, and sort capability; and better performance when certifications involve large numbers of role assignments.

Role briefings display data that informs certification decisions: AI-generated summaries describe access granted by a role. Information about the assignment of that role to a user includes its data-security definition and the number of its access-control violations. Counts of other users assigned the role provide context for the role assignment.

You have the option of activating only the enhanced worksheet, or activating both features. You can't activate the role briefings if you continue to use the original worksheet. To activate these features, set profile values:

  1. Click Navigator > My Enterprise > Setup and Maintenance.

  2. Expand the Tasks panel tab and click Search.

  3. In the Search Tasks field, enter Manage Administrator Profile Values. Click the Search icon.

  4. In the list returned by the search, click the Manage Administrator Profile Values item.

  5. To activate the enhanced worksheet, locate the Profile Option Code field in the Search area of the Manage Administrator Profile Values page. In it, enter ORA_GTR_ACERT_ENHANCED_WORKSHEET_ENABLED. Click the Search button

  6. A record of that profile value appears. In the row for the Site profile level, select Yes in the Profile Value field. Click the Save button.

  7. To activate role briefings, repeat steps 5 and 6, but search for and select the ORA_GTR_ACERT_GENAI_ENABLED profile value.

  8. Click Save and Close.

Two issues may have an impact:

  • For the enhanced worksheet to be available to users, updates are required for the Access Certification Manager predefined job role and any custom job roles based on it. The updates incorporate security features introduced in release 24C. If you've already updated the roles, you don't have to update them again. If you haven't, however, you can do so in any subsequent release. See Required Security Update.

  • The Advanced Access Requests application may also display role briefings, but only if a distinct profile option is set. This feature runs independently in the two applications, so you can choose to run it in only one or the other, or in both. See Activate Role Briefings for Advanced Access Requests.
