When implementing our RBAC (Role Based Access Control) security model in Oracle, I found it quite irritating when the self service pages would not update to include the newly applied Roles and granted security functions.  Here is the solution I found to refresh the web based pages so they they reflect the user’s newly applied security.

Problem

• “XXX is not a valid responsibility for the current user” error
• Not seeing updates from newly assigned or revoked Roles or Responsibilities
• Changes in self service pages driven by new or changed configurations

Solution

• Assign yourself the “Functional Administrator” Responsibility.
  • This is a self service responsibility; it must be assigned BEFORE you have the problem which you are trying to solve.
• Click the Core Services Tab
• Click the Caching Framework Menu (top)
• Click the Global Configuration Menu (left)

• Click the Clear All Cache Button

• Click the Yes Button
