Responsibilities Not Appearing After Logon

Posted by on July 20, 2011 No comments

Problem: After logging on to Oracle Applications E-Business Suite, a custom responsibility is not appearing. This responsibility has disappeared for all users.

Solution: Checked My Oracle Support document “During Login Responsibilities Assigned to Users do not Appear in the Navigator Page [ID 565130.1]”. However, this did not resolve the issue.

Under the System Administrator responsibility, navigated to Security > Responsibility > Define, then queried for the responsibility that was not appearing (F11, Ctrl+F11). Under the Available From section on the form, the “Oracle Mobile Applications” option was selected. Selected “Oracle Applications” option, and then saved. After logging out and logging back in, the user was able to access the responsibility.

(SEC-30) Role User table (ROLEXLATOPR) should be populated when new User Profiles (entries in PSOPRDEFN) 
are created using User Profile component through PIA. The following User Profiles need to be fixed by 
simply opening and saving them through PIA:

Solution:

1. Launch the PeopleSoft instance (PIA) and log on as a user with access to the PeopleTools responsibility.
2. Navigate to PeopleTools > Security > User Profiles > User Profiles.
3. Click Search, and choose ENTMGR_PRO (Procurement Catalog Manager).
4. Make a change to the record (e.g. change Language Code from English to Finnish), and save the record.
5. Revert the change (e.g. change Language Code from Finnish to English), and save the record again.
6. Then run the SYSAUDIT report.
