Overview
Perform the following setup
- Navigate to Setup and Maintenance > Task > Search> “Manage Administrator Profile
Values” task
For Oracle fusion instance access click here
Enable profile option ‘FND_READ_ONLY_MODE’ at user level
How it Works
When the user with read only access logs into the environment,system will display a red band above the global menu in all the pages user navigates. The band displays a message that the user has read only access to the application and cannot make any updates.
When user navigates to the setup pages and as soon as the pages loads there is a message stating that user has ready only access (“You have read-only access to all applications. You cannot perform updates. (FND-3319)”) and cannot make any updates.If user edits the data and saves the data same error message is displayed again.
For customers looking for read only access to the Payables application, so far we had supported read only access to only the transaction pages (invoice/payment pages) using read only duty roles. There was no such provision to access the setup pages in read only mode. Now users can access the setups pages in read only mode by enabling the profile option.
When this profile option is enabled at a user level it will grant read only access to the setup pages in the application.
How to create a Read Only Access for Project Accountant role
How to create a Read Only Access for Project Accountant role to just view the Project Costs in Fusion PPM ?
Solution
To view project costs in a read-only mode, here’s what needs to be done:
Create a custom role and grant the following functional privileges:
- Manage Project Cost Activities
- Manage Project Expenditure Item
- View Project Expenditure Item Borrowed and Lent Distribution Lines
- View Project Expenditure Item Cost Distribution Lines
- View Project Labor Cost
Grant the following data security policy to this custom role:
- Data Resource: Business Unit
- Data Set: Select by instance set
- Condition Name: Access the business units for which the user is explicitly authorized
- Actions: Manage Project Expenditure Item
- Assign this role to the user who you want to have read-only access to view project costs.
- Grant data access to this user to the relevant business units for which you want the data to
be viewed using the Manage Data Access for Users setup task. The above user can now navigate to the Manage Project Costs page and view project costs but can’t take any actions/perform adjustments on them.
