Configure Oracle Fusion ERP for automatic user provisioning with Microsoft Entra ID

The objective of this article is to demonstrate the steps to be performed in Oracle Fusion ERP and Microsoft Entra ID to configure Microsoft Entra ID to automatically provision and de-provision users and/or groups to Oracle Fusion ERP.

Note

This article describes a connector built on top of the Microsoft Entra user provisioning service. For important details on what this service does, how it works, and frequently asked questions, see Automate user provisioning and deprovisioning to SaaS applications with Microsoft Entra ID.

Prerequisites

The scenario outlined in this article assumes that you already have the following prerequisites:

Assign Users to Oracle Fusion ERP

Microsoft Entra ID uses a concept called assignments to determine which users should receive access to selected apps. In the context of automatic user provisioning, only the users and/or groups that have been assigned to an application in Microsoft Entra ID are synchronized.

Before configuring and enabling automatic user provisioning, you should decide which users and/or groups in Microsoft Entra ID need access to Oracle Fusion ERP. Once decided, you can assign these users and/or groups to Oracle Fusion ERP by following the instructions here:

Important tips for assigning users to Oracle Fusion ERP

  • It's recommended that a single Microsoft Entra user is assigned to Oracle Fusion ERP to test the automatic user provisioning configuration. Additional users and/or groups may be assigned later.

  • When assigning a user to Oracle Fusion ERP, you must select any valid application-specific role (if available) in the assignment dialog. Users with the Default Access role are excluded from provisioning.

Set up Oracle Fusion ERP for provisioning

Before configuring Oracle Fusion ERP for automatic user provisioning with Microsoft Entra ID, you need to enable SCIM provisioning on Oracle Fusion ERP.

  1. Sign in to your Oracle Fusion ERP Admin Console

  2. Select the Navigator on the top-left top corner. Under Tools, select Security Console.

  4. Save the username and password for the admin user account which you use to log into the Oracle Fusion ERP admin console. These values need to be entered in the Admin Username and Password fields in the Provisioning tab of your Oracle Fusion ERP application.

To configure Oracle Fusion ERP for automatic user provisioning with Microsoft Entra ID, you need to add Oracle Fusion ERP from the Microsoft Entra application gallery to your list of managed SaaS applications.

To add Oracle Fusion ERP from the Microsoft Entra application gallery, perform the following steps:

  1. Sign in to the Microsoft Entra admin center as at least a Cloud Application Administrator.

  2. Browse to Entra ID > Enterprise apps > New application.

  3. In the Add from the gallery section, type Oracle Fusion ERP, select Oracle Fusion ERP in the results panel.

Configure automatic user provisioning to Oracle Fusion ERP

This section guides you through the steps to configure the Microsoft Entra provisioning service to create, update, and disable users and/or groups in Oracle Fusion ERP based on user and/or group assignments in Microsoft Entra ID.

Tip

You may also choose to enable SAML-based single sign-on for Oracle Fusion ERP by following the instructions provided in the Oracle Fusion ERP Single sign-on article. Single sign-on can be configured independently of automatic user provisioning, though these two features complement each other.
