Create EBS user from backend & Assign Responsibility

Oracle EBS users can be created from the front end through Oracle forms or using backend PLSQL Blocks as well. We will see how to create user in oracle apps from the backend in this post

Application User can be created from sqlplus using PLSQL Block

Set serveroutput on
BEGIN
fnd_user_pkg.CreateUser(x_user_name => 'UserName'
,x_owner => 'CUST'
,x_unencrypted_password => 'userpass'
,x_description => 'Your complete name'
);
commit;
END;
/

Let’s see an example.

Set serveroutput on
BEGIN
fnd_user_pkg.CreateUser(x_user_name => TEST'
,x_owner => 'CUST'
,x_unencrypted_password => 'TESTWELCOME1'
,x_description => 'TEST'
);
commit;
END;
/

This will create an application user TEST with the password TESTWELCOME1 in the FND_USER table.

Upon the creation of a new EBS user, the user is required to change the password associated with the account on the first login. We can avoid this by executing the below query

set serveroutput on
declare
l_user_name varchar2(2000);
begin
l_user_name := 'TEST';
fnd_user_pkg.updateuser(x_user_name =>
l_user_name, X_OWNER => 'CUST', x_password_date =>sysdate);
end;
/

You can add more details using the below block

Set serveroutput on
BEGIN
fnd_user_pkg.createuser
( x_user_name => 'UserName',
x_owner => 'CUST',
x_unencrypted_password => 'test pass',
x_start_date => '20-JUN-2020',
x_end_date => '20-JUN-2030',
x_password_date => '20-JUN-2020',
x_password_lifespan_days => 130
x_employee_id => 476476,
x_email_address => '[email protected]'
);
COMMIT;
EXCEPTION
WHEN OTHERS THEN
ROLLBACK;
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(SQLERRM);
END;
/

There will be no responsibilities assigned to the user once it is added. Using the API below, we can assign responsibilities to the user.

Set serveroutput on
BEGIN
fnd_user_pkg.AddResp(username => 'UserName'
,resp_app => 'FND'
,resp_key => 'APPLICATION_DEVELOPER'
,security_group => 'STANDARD'
,description => 'Application Developer'
,start_date => SYSDATE
,end_date => NULL
);
fnd_user_pkg.AddResp(username => 'UserName'
,resp_app => 'SYSADMIN'
,resp_key => 'SYSTEM_ADMINISTRATOR'
,security_group => 'STANDARD'
,description => 'System admin'
,start_date => SYSDATE
,end_date => NULL
);
COMMIT;
END;
/

This will add application developer and system administrator responsibilities to the user. Hope you like this article on how to create user in oracle apps from backend
