The following pages and wizards are used to create, set options and enter data for contexts in Oracle IRM:
Use to create and delete contexts, and to refresh the list of contexts.

Contexts Page - General Controls - Left Panel
Element | Description |
---|---|
New Context (icon) | Select to open the New Context wizard. |
Delete (icon) | Select to delete the context currently highlighted on the left panel. A dialog will ask you to confirm the deletion. You will not be allowed to delete the context if it still has users with assigned rights. |
Refresh (icon) | Select to refresh the list of contexts on the left panel. You should do this to ensure that the list is showing any changes made by other users. |
Gain management rights for all orphaned contexts (icon) | Visible only to domain managers and domain administrators.

Orphaned contexts are those whose context manager has been removed from the user directory. Any orphaned contexts will be shown in the list of contexts, and you will be able to select them for modification. |

Element | Description |
---|---|
Available | This box shows contexts that can be assigned as trusted contexts for the current context. Highlight the contexts in this box that you want to move to the Selected box. |
Move, Move All, Remove, Remove All | Use these controls to move context names between the Available and Selected boxes. The Move control and the Remove control will affect only those contexts that have a check mark against them. |
Selected | All contexts whose names are listed in this box will become trusted contexts when the OK button is clicked. The presence or absence of check marks does not have any effect on this. |
Details | This display area shows the details of any context individually selected in the Available or Selected boxes. |
Use to create a new context, based on an existing context template. Domain administrators can create context templates. Domain administrators and domain managers can create contexts.
Open by clicking the New Context icon on the left panel of the Contexts page.
Use to name and describe a new context.
Opens by default as the first page of the New Context wizard. Can also be opened by selecting the General/Settings node in the wizard header.
Element | Description |
---|---|
Name | Enter a name for the new context. This name will be seen by users of Oracle IRM Desktop when they seal documents to this context, so the name should reflect the purpose of the context. |
Context Type | Choose one of the available context templates from this drop-down list. Only active context templates are shown. You must base the new context on one of the available context templates. (Context templates can be created by domain administrators using the Context Templates page.) |
Description | Enter a description of the context. |
Make Context Visible To Inspectors | This is normally checked. Contexts should be made visible to inspectors. Domain administrators that are also inspectors (as is recommended) will then be able to see all contexts that have been created, and be able to judge the effects of changing a context template.
You should only consider making the context not visible to inspectors if the context relates to highly sensitive matters. If you make a context not visible to inspectors, there is a danger that alterations to the context template on which it is based will have unintended consequences. |
Server Language | Shows which language has been set as the default for this context.
The default language is set on the Oracle IRM pages of the Oracle Fusion Middleware Control Console. Translations of the name and description for the new context can be added to the Translations page of this wizard. |
Use to assign one or more users to the context, making them context managers of this context. Context managers assign roles to users and are usually business owners.
You do not have to add yourself as a context manager: the user creating the context is made a context manager automatically.
Opens as the second page of the New Context wizard. Can also be opened by selecting the Managers node in the wizard header.
Element | Description |

Selected Users | Users whose names are listed in this box will become context managers for this context when the wizard is completed.
The presence or absence of check marks does not have any effect on this. The user who created the context will become a context manager even if his name is not listed in this box. |
Details | This display area shows the details of any user individually selected in the Available Users or Selected Users boxes. |
