Database Support Request Management

13-6 Oracle Fusion Middleware Upgrade Guide for Oracle Identity Management user interface is an ADF-based page, then the user interface customization needs to done using ADF Faces technology. Transitional-UI-based pages can be customized using the same Oracle Identity Manager 9.1 Struts-based technology. For more information on user interface customizations, see Customizing Oracle Identity Manager Interfacesrefer to the Oracle Fusion Middleware Developers Guide for Oracle Identity Manager.

13.1.9 Object Forms

As part of the upgrade process, all the object forms are converted to request datasets. The dataflow mappings are also migrated to request datasets. After upgrading to Oracle Identity Manager 11g you must reattach a prepopulate adapter to a form field. For more information, see Rewriting Prepopulate Adapters .

13.1.10 Prepopulate Adapters

Prepopulate adapters attached to Oracle Identity Manager 9.1 Object Forms should be converted or re-implemented as prepopulate plug-ins in Oracle Identity Manager 11g. For Process Forms, the prepopulate adapters work similarly to how Prepopulate adapters worked in Oracle Identity Manager 9.1. After upgrade you must complete the steps described in Rewriting Prepopulate Adapters .

13.1.11 Task Assignment Adapters

Task Assignment adapters associated with approval tasks are not upgraded. The task assignment logic of approval tasks that correspond to approval processes should be re-written as SOA composites. For more information, see Using Generated SOA Composite as Approval Process .

13.1.12 Event Handlers

In Oracle Identity Manager 9.1, event handlers provided the capability to add various customizations on a certain data object life cycle events like Insert, Update, or Delete using Data Object Manager in the Design Console. In Oracle Identity Manager 11g, User Management, Role Management and Request have been redesigned to use the Orchestration Framework where you can define various event handlers for life cycle management events like Create, Update, or Delete. The orchestration framework also provides the capability for event handlers to be executed in either a synchronous or asynchronous fashion. Table 13–3 shows the mapping for Role entity. Similar mapping will also be applicable for User and Request entities. Notes: ■ Visible menu items cannot be customized by changing menu permissions. ■ User Defined Fields request form are not upgraded to Oracle Identity Manager 11g.
