Optimising Your Oracle Cloud Fusion Application Subscriptions (Fusion SaaS)

The main challenge with Oracle Fusion Apps is tracking users and applying the correct roles and privileges to the most appropriate user and user groups, as outlined below;

• Issues caused by users with authorised access to privileges that they do not require and/or which trigger unsubscribed SKUs.
• Challenges around the bundling of privileges in roles/groups, as not all users require the full privileges when companies implement the solution.
• Lack of role segregation allowing for reporting specific SKU use.
• Generic users, double counting users with multiple accounts and users assigned to subscriptions by job function that they do not need.
• Service Usage Metrics Reports which should be used with care, not in isolation and with some knowledge and expertise around interpretation.

All these issues cause over usage of cloud subscriptions and unnecessary extra spending that ultimately would not occur if appropriate asset management was in place.
