How to change users' initial page based on a condition

Question

I'm using SSO on my application, and have two types of users who will be logging on - I want one set (admins) to go straight to one page, and the other set (users) to go to a another page after logging in. These two sets of users are stored in the database, so I can want to use that to check against.
I get the impression this would be easy enough if my users went via the 101-login page, but as I'm using SSO I don't think they do. I can change the default starting page, with the home link setting in the application's security attributes, but you can only set one of those.
I don't mind having it all default to one page, and then redirect away from that if the username meets a particular condition, but can't see how I can do that.
Can anyone suggest how I can work this to achieve what I need?

Answer 1

Tim,
First I would create a HOME_PAGE application item. Then I would create an application computation on new instance that sets that item accordingly. something like this:
with user_table as(
    select 'TIM' user_name, 'ADMIN' user_role from dual
select case
           when exists(select *
                         from user_table
                        where user_name = :APP_USER
                          and user_role = 'ADMIN')
           then
              102
           else
              103
      end
  from user_tableI would make a landing page all people go to. Page 150. On that page i would make a branch before header which references your HOME_PAGE application item.
