Symptoms

When log in as SYSADMIN user after a fresh installation of Oracle Applications R12, there is no link for OAM.

The current documentation (AD utilities, page 1-23) assumes that OAM is immediately accessible after logging into the applications and that the dashboard immediately pops up after the login, which is not correct..

Cause

There is no more direct login page to OAM in R12 as per unpublished Bug 5601528.

There will be no direct access to oamLogin servlet. Everything will go thru Standard Self Service Login-->System Administration-->OAM Links.

The "System Administration" responsibility is not available by default. The "System Administration" responsibility is needed to allow access to OAM.

Solution

1. Login as sysadmin/

2. Choose System Administrator

3. Go to User Define and query up %sysadmin%

4. Add the responsibility System Administration

5. Save and exit applications.

6. Bounce services - adstpall.sh and adstrtal.sh (located in /admin/scripts)

7. Login as sysadmin and choose "System Administration"

You should now be able to see the following OAM links:

Purging/Critical Activities
