Assigning E-Business Suite entitlements to user accounts in One Identity Manager

In One Identity Manager, E-Business Suite entitlements can be assigned directly or indirectly to employees. In the case of indirect assignment, employees, and entitlements are organized in hierarchical roles. The number of entitlements assigned to an employee is calculated from the position in the hierarchy and the direction of inheritance. If the employee has an E-Business Suite user account, the entitlements are assigned to this user account. Prerequisites for indirect assignment of employees to user accounts:

  • The assignment of employees and E-Business Suite entitlements is permitted for departments, cost centers, locations, or business roles.

  • The Entitlements can be inherited option is selected for the user accounts.

  • The user accounts are linked with an employee through the UID_Person (Person) column.

  • User accounts and E-Business Suite entitlements belong to the same E-Business Suite system.

Entitlements can also be assigned to employees through IT Shop requests. To enable the assignment of entitlements using IT Shop requests, employees are added as customers in a shop. All entitlements assigned to this shop as products can be requested by the customers. After approval is granted, requested entitlements are assigned to the employees.

You can use system roles to group entitlements together and assign them to employees as a package. You can create system roles that contain only E-Business Suite entitlements. System entitlements from different target systems can also be grouped together in a system role.

To react quickly to special requests, you can also assign the E-Business Suite entitlements directly to user accounts.
