Installing and Configuring Oracle Municipal Code Officer

You must install and configure the Oracle Municipal Code Officer to use the mobile inspections application in the field.

Oracle Permitting and Licensing Code Enforcement provides a mobile inspections application for agency staff to download and install on their mobile devices. The Oracle Municipal Code Officer mobile application is not intended for use by the public. Although the Oracle Municipal Code Officer mobile application is intended mainly for phones, you can download the application to other mobile devices, such as tablets.

Before You Begin

Before you begin installing and configuring the Oracle Municipal Code Officer mobile application, you must have:

• An agency staff profile

  Make sure that you have an agency staff profile to log into the mobile application. Because the application package configuration is secure, you must enter your login credentials before the environment begins to download. Agency administrators set up the agency staff profiles.

• Appropriate security

  Agency administrators must explicitly grant mobile application access to you. Use the Mobile Application Activation link that you have received from your administrator to access the application. The only role that has access to the mobile application is the code enforcement officer.

For more information for agency system administrators setting up profiles and security, see Setting Up Users for Oracle Mobile Applications.
