Overview

UMX_PASSWORD_PVT is a private PL/SQL package owned by the APPS schema in Oracle E-Business Suite, classified as PVT (private) under the User Management (UMX) product family. Its principal business function is to centralize password validation, password reset, and self-service password recovery logic for EBS application users defined in FND_USER. The package is declared with AUTHID CURRENT_USER, meaning that all unqualified object references and privilege checks resolve against the invoking schema rather than the package owner, an important consideration for callers and for any customization layered on top of the seeded code.

The package underpins the "forgot password" and forced password reset flows exposed through Oracle Applications Manager and related self-service interfaces. It also provides the workflow-callback entry points required to drive password-related business processes through the Oracle Workflow engine. Because the package is private, Oracle does not publish it as a supported public API; it is invoked internally by other UMX components and by seeded workflow definitions.

Key Procedures and Functions

• VALIDATE_PASSWORD — Validates a supplied password for a given username, returning a status and a message describing the reason for any failure. This is the core password-policy enforcement routine.
• RESETPWD — Resets the password for a specified user, optionally checking user identity and delivering localized approval and reset notification messages. It supports the administrative and self-service reset paths.
• UPDATEPASSWORD_WF — A workflow-callback procedure that performs the password update step within a Workflow process, returning a workflow result.
• CREATEROLE — A workflow-callback procedure that creates the role associated with password-management processing.
• SETPASSWORD_WF — A workflow-callback procedure that sets the password as part of a Workflow-driven reset sequence.
• FORGOTPWD — Implements the "forgot password" self-service flow, including identity verification and notification messaging.
• CLEAN_UP_AD_HOC_ROLE — Removes ad hoc roles created temporarily during password-processing workflows, preventing accumulation of orphaned role definitions.

Tables Accessed

The package operates against a defined set of tables and views accessed through APPS synonyms. FND_USER provides the authoritative user record, including user name and password attributes, and is the primary target for validation and reset operations. HZ_PARTIES supports identity verification during self-service reset and recovery. UMX_PASSWORD_WF_S stores the transient state associated with password workflow processing. The Workflow tables WF_ITEMS, WF_ITEM_ACTIVITY_STATUSES, and WF_ITEM_TYPES are consulted and updated by the *_WF callback procedures to advance workflow items and resolve activity status. WF_LOCAL_ROLES holds the role records referenced by role creation and cleanup logic. DBMS_RANDOM supplies random values used in password generation or token creation, and DUAL serves as the standard single-row source for scalar expressions.

Usage Notes

UMX_PASSWORD_PVT is not referenced by any other documented package in the ETRM catalog, confirming its role as a low-level internal implementation unit consumed directly by forms, Oracle Applications Manager components, and seeded Oracle Workflow definitions rather than through a published API layer. Customizations that require password validation or reset behavior should generally call the supported public UMX or FND_USER_PKG interfaces instead of binding to this private package, since its signature and behavior may change across patch levels.

The search phrase associated with this query, "192.168.1.1 login sonic password," reflects a common consumer router-administration search and has no technical relationship to this EBS package. Practitioners encountering that term should recognize it as unrelated to Oracle EBS user management, and should treat UMX_PASSWORD_PVT strictly as the EBS internal password-handling unit described above.
