     |__ o. Sometimes, application team may request creating the same user in production database with same password, privilege and roles as in test database.

     |
     |__ SQL> select dbms_metadata.get_ddl('USER', 'DB_USERNAME') || '/' usercreate from dba_users;


                 CREATE USER "DB_USERNAME" IDENTIFIED BY VALUES 'S:DCFA5B4BB559561681E491489143868D1C39AE429736996EEF1DCF425BF4;523BB2628D7C049A'
                 DEFAULT TABLESPACE "USERS"
                 TEMPORARY TABLESPACE "TEMP"
                 PROFILE "EMERALIT_APPS"
                 /

     |
     |__ SQL> select grantee, granted_role, default_role from dba_role_privs where grantee='DB_USERNAME';
	
	
                 GRANTEE                        GRANTED_ROLE                   DEF
                 ------------------------------ ------------------------------ ---
                 DB_USERNAME                    CONNECT                        YES
                 DB_USERNAME                    TPEC_READONLY_ROLE             YES
                 DB_USERNAME                    W3C_READONLY_ROLE              YES
