B.2.8 How to Set Up Accounts Payable Security for Oracle E-Business Suite

Financial Analytics supports security over Payables Invoicing Business Unit in Accounts Payable subject areas. This Business Unit is the same as Operating Unit Organizations in E-Business Suite, and the list of Operating Unit Organizations that a user has access to is determined by the grants in E-Business Suite.
Configuring Accounts Payable Security
In order for data security filters to be applied, appropriate initialization blocks need to be enabled depending on the deployed source system. To enable Accounts Payable security for E-Business Suite, enable Oracle E-Business Suite initialization block and make sure the initialization blocks of all other source systems are disabled. The initialization block names relevant to various source systems are given below. If more than one source system is deployed, then you must also enable the initialization blocks of those source systems. For example:
  • Oracle Fusion Applications: Payables Business Unit
  • Oracle E-Business Suite: Operating Unit Organizations EBS
  • Oracle PeopleSoft: Payables Organizations
To enable initialization blocks, follow the steps below:
  1. In Oracle BI EE Administration Tool, edit the BI metadata repository (RPD file).
  2. Choose Manage, then Variables to display the Variables dialog.
  3. Under Session – Initialization Blocks, open the initialization block that you need to enable.
  4. Clear the Disabled check box.
  5. Save the RPD file.
Configuring BI Duty Roles
The following BI Duty Roles are applicable to the Accounts Payable subject area.
  • AP Analyst
  • AP Manager
These duty roles control which subject areas and dashboard content the user get access to. These duty roles also ensure the data security filters are applied to all the queries. For more information about how to define new groups and mappings for Users and BI Roles, see Section B.2.44, "How to Define New Groups and Mappings for Users and BI Roles".
