2FA admin account creation so that the CAMIS administrator can activate/modify a CAME’s eMER account.

This assumes that a record in CAMIS has already been created. If you can log into CAMIS on the target environment (development, acceptance or production) without seeing an error in the login page then you have a CAMIS profile.

If not, the required record can be created by:

  1. Logging into CAMIS

  2. Selecting User Admin from the menu

  3. Adding the person via the “TC” Directory.

Note: adding the “Administrator” privilege to the new CAME profile is insufficient for creating new CAME profiles or generating/re-generating activation codes for existing CAME profiles.

The ability to create new CAME profiles or generating/re-generating activating CAME profiles should usually only be provided to internal TC users (development and business client (example, Samia Dawi, users authorized by the business client. In these cases, A 2FA admin account with “role code 2” has to be created.

 

The following sections explain:

  1. Adding a 2FA admin account to an existing CAMIS Profile.

  2. Checking what 2FA Admin profiles exist already.

  3. Troubleshooting your existing CAMIS profile.

To add 2FA Admin to an existing profile.

Use the connection corresponding to development, acceptance or production as follows:

For development: connect using TWOFA@TTSXD18

For acceptance connect using TWOFA@TTSXA18

For production: Connect using TWOFA@TTSXP18

  1. Get next value from sequence: SELECT AC040_STAKEHOLDER_ID_SEQ.nextval FROM dual;
    **This will be used as the STAKEHOLDER_ID

  2. Create a record in the TWOFA.AC040_STAKEHOLDER table
    **Note: GLOBAL_USERID_LBL is just a random string of 12 alphanumeric characters. You can use sites like StrongPasswordGenerator to generate the string

    INSERT INTO TWOFA.AC040_STAKEHOLDER (STAKEHOLDER_ID, STAKEHOLDER_TYPE_CD, NAME_FIRST_NM, NAME_LAST_NM, STAKEHOLDER_CREATED_ID, GLOBAL_USERID_LBL, USER_LAST_UPDATE_ID) VALUES (:stakeholder_id, 1, 'First Name', 'Last Name', 1, :12_chars_alphanumeric, 1);

  3. Create a record in TWOFA.AC043_INTERNAL_STAKEHOLDER

    INSERT INTO TWOFA.AC043_INTERNAL_STAKEHOLDER VALUES (:stakeholder_id, 1, :12_chars_alphanumeric, 1, :tc_user_id, SYSDATE, NULL, SYSDATE, 1);

  4. Connect the CAMIS environment, using CAMIS_DATA_ADMIN, to the corresponding to where the twofa updates are being made.

    Copy the string from TWOFA.AC040_STAKEHOLDER.GLOBAL_USERID_LBL into the CAMIS database CAMIS.AA008_APPLICATION_USER.TWOFA_USERID_LBL for the newly created TWOFA account

    UPDATE CAMIS.AA008_APPLICATION_USER SET TWOFA_USERID_LBL = :12_chars_alphanumeric WHERE TC_USER_ID = :tc_user_id;

  5. APPLICATION_CD to use in the script provided in this step

    Dev: 4
    Acc and Prod: 1

    Create a record in TWOFA.AC002_XREF_APPLICATION_USER with the following standard values

Problems with 2FA Admin Account:

Re-enabling an existing CAMIS Account that was deleted

If your account was added for access to CAMIS, and the error below is displayed, your CAMIS account may have been. The following error in CAMIS after logging in via Entrust. The same error is also displayed if you have not been given access to CAMIS.

To restore access:

  1. Go to table AA008_APPLICATION_USER

Retrieve the affected user record by TC_USER_ID. → TC_USER_ID is the same as the account’s network login id.

Make sure that DATE_DELETED_DTE is NULL.

Take note of your PERSON_ID (you will need this for the remaining steps).

  1. Go to table AA005_USER_ROLE

retrieve the record by using the PERSON_ID obtained in step 1.

Make sure that DATE_DELETED_DTE is NULL for records that have set to deleted (or recently set to deleted).

  1. Go to table YA096_PERSON

retrieve the record by using the PERSON_ID obtained in step 1.

Make sure that DATE_DELETED_DTE is NULL for records that have set to deleted.

 

2. Unable to activate new CAME accounts or generate new activation codes

If you cannot activate a CAME account or generate a new activation code:
a) verify that you have a 2FA admin account as explained in this article.

b) the following script can be used to check your 2FA admin account.

c) verify that the folder “TC_Directory” is present. If the TC_Directory folder is missing, users with Admin access will not be able to generate new activation codes or add internal CAME users in CAMIS via the
ADMIN → User Admin menu.
