Use Source System Management (SSM) to manage source systems that provide data for the TCA Registry, and determine how that data is displayed and used. The key features of SSM are:
Source Systems: Define the source systems you use to import data into the TCA Registry. The definition not only enables tracking between a TCA record and its data sources, but also provides operational links whereby updates can be sent and received in both directions between the TCA record and the source systems.
See: Source Systems Overview.
Single Source of Truth (SST): Data from multiple content sources, including source systems and end users, can coexist in the TCA Registry. Set up the SST record, in which attribute values within a record can come from different data sources. Oracle applications display and use the SST record for party profile entities. For the SST record, you also define privileges for users to overwrite data from source systems, and for source systems to overwrite user-entered data.
Security for Other Entities: Define user privileges to create user-entered records and update data from source systems. These rules apply only to specific entities other than those used in SST.
