MULTI - ORGWhat is multi org architecture? A. The multi-org architecture is meant to allow multiple companies or subsidiaries to store their records within a single database. The multiple organization architecture allows this by partitioning data through views in the APPS schema. Multi-org also allows you to maintain multiple sets of books. Implementation of multi-org generally includes defining more than one Business Group. How do I know if I am using multi org? A. Run the SQL statement: Select multi_org_flag from fnd_product_groups; The result 'Y' means your database is setup for multi-org. What relationships can be defined in a multi org environment? A. Relationships are defined among inventory organizations, operating units, legal entities, business groups, and sets of books to create a multilevel company structure: Business Groups separate major segments of a business. Each can have its own set of books. Each Group will also have a structure of other organizations classifications assigned to it. Legal Entities post to a Set of Books Operating Units are part of a Legal Entity Inventory Organizations are part of an Operating Unit Inventory Organizations define and maintain items used by other manufacturing modules (Order Entry, Purchasing, MRP, etc.). They also collect and pass data to the Financials modules. I want to setup additional organizations. Do I have to setup multi-org? A. No, you do not have to setup multi-org to have multiple organizations. Multi-org is only required if you intend to have multiple sets of books. Is there any documentation on how to setup an organization? A. Refer to "Oracle Manufacturing Implementation Manual" part#A50765. Refer to "Multiple Organizations in Oracle Applications" part#A58478 for Release 11 and part#50771 for Release 10. Also refer to note 76440.1 or OSS802 for Organization setup steps. When my organization hierarchy changes, can I move an organization from one set of books or legal entity to another? A. No, you should not try to move an organization from one set of books or legal entity to another because your data may not be valid for the new set of books or legal entity. Instead, you should disable the old organization and create a new organization for the appropriate set of books or legal entity. The new organization will contain your new data and the disabled organization will act as an "old" or " history" entity that stores past transactions. How can I setup a child org to be its own costing organization? A. Steps: Change the attribute control for "default category set" to organization level Change the attribute control for "costing enabled" to organization level Change the attribute control for "inventory asset value" to organization control MO: Operating Unit = {the users Operating Unit name} Used primarily in a multiorg environment. other Organization Classifications.
