• Enable your users to be automatically signed-in to Oracle Fusion ERP with their Microsoft Entra accounts.
• Manage your accounts in one central location.

Prerequisites

To get started, you need the following items:

• A Microsoft Entra subscription. If you don't have a subscription, you can get a free account.
• Oracle Fusion ERP single sign-on (SSO) enabled subscription.

Scenario description

In this tutorial, you configure and test Microsoft Entra SSO in a test environment.

• Oracle Fusion ERP supports SP and IDP initiated SSO.
• Oracle Fusion ERP supports Automated user provisioning and deprovisioning (recommended).

Add Oracle Fusion ERP from the gallery

To configure the integration of Oracle Fusion ERP into Microsoft Entra ID, you need to add Oracle Fusion ERP from the gallery to your list of managed SaaS apps.

1. Sign in to the Microsoft Entra admin center as at least a Cloud Application Administrator.
2. Browse to Identity > Applications > Enterprise applications > New application.
3. In the Add from the gallery section, type Oracle Fusion ERP in the search box.
4. Select Oracle Fusion ERP from results panel and then add the app. Wait a few seconds while the app is added to your tenant.

Alternatively, you can also use the Enterprise App Configuration Wizard. In this wizard, you can add an application to your tenant, add users/groups to the app, assign roles, and walk through the SSO configuration as well. Learn more about Microsoft 365 wizards.

Configure and test Microsoft Entra SSO for Oracle Fusion ERP

Configure and test Microsoft Entra SSO with Oracle Fusion ERP using a test user called B.Simon. For SSO to work, you need to establish a link relationship between a Microsoft Entra user and the related user in Oracle Fusion ERP.

To configure and test Microsoft Entra SSO with Oracle Fusion ERP, perform the following steps:

1. Configure Microsoft Entra SSO - to enable your users to use this feature.
   1. Create a Microsoft Entra test user - to test Microsoft Entra single sign-on with B.Simon.
   2. Assign the Microsoft Entra test user - to enable B.Simon to use Microsoft Entra single sign-on.
2. Configure Oracle Fusion ERP SSO - to configure the single sign-on settings on application side.
   1. Create Oracle Fusion ERP test user - to have a counterpart of B.Simon in Oracle Fusion ERP that is linked to the Microsoft Entra representation of user.
3. Test SSO - to verify whether the configuration works.

Configure Microsoft Entra SSO

Follow these steps to enable Microsoft Entra SSO.

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

Configure Oracle Fusion ERP SSO

To configure single sign-on on Oracle Fusion ERP side, you need to send the downloaded Federation Metadata XML and appropriate copied URLs from the application configuration to Oracle Fusion ERP support team. They set this setting to have the SAML SSO connection set properly on both sides.

Create Oracle Fusion ERP test user

In this section, you create a user called Britta Simon in Oracle Fusion ERP. Work with Oracle Fusion ERP support team to add the users in the Oracle Fusion ERP platform. Users must be created and activated before you use single sign-on.

Test SSO

In this section, you test your Microsoft Entra single sign-on configuration with following options.

SP initiated:

• Select on Test this application, this will redirect to Oracle Fusion ERP Sign-on URL where you can initiate the sign in flow.

• Go to Oracle Fusion ERP Sign-on URL directly and initiate the sign in flow from there.

IDP initiated:

• Select on Test this application, and you should be automatically signed in to the Oracle Fusion ERP for which you set up the SSO.

You can also use Microsoft My Apps to test the application in any mode. When you select the Oracle Fusion ERP tile in the My Apps, if configured in SP mode you would be redirected to the application sign-on page for initiating the sign in flow and if configured in IDP mode, you should be automatically signed in to the Oracle Fusion ERP for which you set up the SSO. For more information about the My Apps, see Introduction to the My Apps.
