E-Business Suite systems

An E-Business Suite system represent the target system of the synchronization of an Oracle E-Business Suite in One Identity Manager. E-Business Suite systems used to configure provisioning processes, for automatic assignment of employees to user accounts, and to pass down permissions to user accounts within an Oracle E-Business Suite.

NOTE: The Synchronization Editor sets up the E-Business Suite systems in the One Identity Manager database.

To set up a system:

  1. In the Manager, select the Oracle E-Business Suite > Systems category.

  2. Select the system in the results list.

  3. Select the Change main data task.

  4. Edit the main data of the system.

  5. Save the changes.

General main data of E-Business Suite systems

On the General tab, you enter the following main data:

Table 32: General main data of E-Business Suite systems

Property

Description

Display name

Name of the system to be displayed on the user interface

Account definition (initial)

Initial account definition for creating user accounts. This account definition is used if automatic assignment of employees to user accounts is used for this system and if user accounts are to be created that are already managed (Linked configured). The account definition's default manage level is applied.

User accounts are only linked to the employee (Linked) if no account definition is given. This is the case on initial synchronization, for example.

Target system managers

Application role, in which target system managers are specified for the system. Target system managers only edit the objects from systems to which they are assigned. A different target system manager can be assigned to each system.

Select the One Identity Manager application role whose members are responsible for administration of this system. Use the button to add a new application role.

Synchronized by

Type of synchronization through which data is synchronized between the system and One Identity Manager. You can no longer change the synchronization type once objects for this system are present in One Identity Manager.

When you create a system with the Synchronization Editor it uses One Identity Manager.

Defining categories for the inheritance of E-Business Suite entitlements

In One Identity Manager, user accounts can selectively inherit entitlements. To do this, entitlements, and user accounts are divided into categories. The categories can be freely selected and are specified using a mapping rule. Each category is given a specific position within the template. The mapping rule contains different tables. Use the user account table to specify categories for target system dependent user accounts. In the other tables, enter your categories for the permissions. Each table contains the category positions position 1 to position 63.

To define a category

  1. In the Manager, select the system in the Oracle E-Business Suite > Systems category.

  2. Select the Change main data task.

  3. Switch to the Mapping rule category tab.

  4. Extend the relevant roots of a table.

  5. To enable the category, double-click .

  6. Enter a category name of your choice for user accounts and entitlements in the login language that you use.

  7. Save the changes.

Editing the synchronization project for an E-Business Suite system

Synchronization projects in which a system is already used as a base object can also be opened in the Manager. You can, for example, check the configuration or view the synchronization log in this mode. The Synchronization Editor is not started with its full functionality. You cannot run certain functions, such as, running synchronization or simulation, starting the target system browser and others.

NOTE: The Manager is locked for editing throughout. To edit objects in the Manager, close the Synchronization Editor.

To open an existing synchronization project in the Synchronization Editor

  1. In the Manager, select the Oracle E-Business Suite > Systems category.

  2. Select the system in the results list.

  3. Select the Change main data task.

  4. Select the Edit synchronization project task.
