Converging transactions from multiple instances to one instance in Multiorg structure
Date: Tue, 13 Jul 1999 20:24:19 -0700
From: "Welter, Ed" Ed.Welter@nike.com
Subject: Multi-Org: Converging history
Has anyone tackled trying to bring all transactions (historical and open)
from multiple organizations in separate instances into a single instance
multi-org structure? Since the open interfaces do not handle historical
transactions has anyone built templates via some tool, built convergence
scripts, etc? I would assume these would have to be written directly to the
tables...Is there another way? We feel that it is a very high risk effort
to orchestrate it in the proper order without leaving something out or
changing the data somehow. Leaving the historical transactions behind is an
option for us. Nor is separating them into something else a feasability at
this point.
Any thoughts?

Addition of an Org of a different country

Subject: Multi-Org Experts!!!
Hi Forum,
I have a client who is already live on Oracle Apps
10.7. The multi-org feature is enabled. Now the client
wishes to include another org. This org is based in
another country (Ecuador). The questions that I have
are:
1. Do we have to run the multi-org program again from
the adadmin utility. The new org will have its own set
of books, calendar and currency. The SOB will be
consolidated into the US SOB.
2. The Ecuador folks want to see their forms in
Spanish. Can we turn the NLS on for a single org. How
should we do it?
3. The Ecuador currency fluctuates like anything. Last
year alone it has depreciated by 50%. How do we handle
such a situation.
I would appreciate your help in this matter. Thank you
in advance.

Siddharth:
1. Creation of a new operating unit requires the replication of seed data
for that particualar organisation in cases of an existing multi-org
installation. You can run ADADMIN manually if the process doesn't trigger
itself automatically.
2. I am not too sure of the second question - whether forms can be viewed in
a different language for any particular operating unit. I can check this out
though. Give me a few on this one.
3. MRC is not enabled in Release 10.7. So you will not be able to view
transactional detail in multiple currencies relatime. However, you can
consolidate detail transactions periodically into USD and ensure management
reporting.
I recommend that you explore the possibility of an upgrade to Release 11!!
Hope this helped. However, if you do have any other particular questions, do
get in touch.

You will need to run the "Replicate Seed Data" program after you set up your
second Org.
It sounds like you need MRC (Multiple Reporting Currencies). One set of
books for Ecuador and the other for your reporting currency. If the
reporting currency is USD then FASB 52 will mandate USD as the functional
currency. The only way to have 2 functional currencies is with MRC.

hyperinflationary issues.

Hi,
We are using Oracle Release 11.0.1 on Sun OS. We have not installed multi
org patch. Oracle purchasing is installed in share mode. When I am trying
to query the default oracle business group ie "Setup Business Group" from
the Organisation screen, query returns no data. Even when I am trying to
create a new organisation, it is not allowing me to do so. Funny part is in
the "HR:Business group" profile option "Setup Business Group" is defaulting
at the site level.
Data for "Setup Business Group" exits in the HR_ALL_ORGANIZATION_UNITS.
Can anybody tell me whether I have to setup some profile option so that I
am able to create organisation??....

Hi,
Release 10.7 onwards is Multi-Org enabled. I think there is no need to run a
Multi-Org patch.
Each responsibility is attached to an Operating Unit. Check the Operating
Unit of your concerned responsibility. The Profile Option to check so is
MO: Operating Unit
Perhaps your OU is attached to some other Business Group. So you can not see
the site level Business Group when you query.
The Profile Option to check is
HR:Business Group
Just check that the Operating Unit of your responsibility is attached to the
Business Group you want to query.

following are the steps you must follow for a multi-org setup:
1). Finalise with the client the organization structure( Set of books,
legal entity, inventory org etc.)
2). In the organization setup define an organization.
3). In the profile MO:operating unit this organization will come as a
pick.
4). Do the basic setups for other modules.
5). Run the seed data replication in the sysadmin module.
6). Define all other organizations and attach them in the respective
responsibilties.

hi ari,
Try these steps to create in following the orders
SOB, Hr profile,Location, Organization, Business group, Legal entity, assign
business groupto site and responsibility level and Operating units.
You will succeed.
1. Set up one SOB.
2. You have to set the profile option: HR: User Type to User for your new
responsibility before you do the Organization set up.
3. Create One Location especially for the Organization which you intended to
create the Business Group.
4. Create an Organization with the above location and save the changes.
5. Create a new Business group, Other than the Setup Business Group and
Enter a Short name for the business group. (You can Enter Directly)
Thatshould be the first option in the Organization classification region
6. Now Create a legal entity, In the organization classification region.We
set the organization to Legal Entity and In the legal entity
accountingflexfield enter your set of book name and save the information.
7. Set the values in the profile option region to your responsibilityand
site level with the new business group name. The name will be appearingin
the LOV by now.(if not re-login and see).
8. After the above steps create a new location other than the one you
assigned to the business group ( Do not use the same location it may give
aproblem)
9. Create a new organization and attach the new location.
10. Now , create the Operation units in the organization classification
zone.
11 Then create Inventory Organisation - SOB, LE, OU will default
Check the steps .. thats the catch.. Morover the steps has to be built based
on ur org. hierarchy modelled.
Things should work

Vendors & Customers are global in multi-org implementation. Vendor sites
& Customer addresses are specific to each operating unit. So when you
define a vendor or customer, those vendors and customers are visible
across all operating units. Only header information is global not
specific site or address. So it's a normal feature and it will not harm
you. Any way in each OU, You'll have to pick a Vendor site or Customer
address to do transactions. Even though the Vendor or Customer
information is visible globally, you will have to define Vendor sites
and Customer addresses at operating unit level. Even if the sites and
addresses are same for two operating units, you will have to define them
twice for that two operating units.
I hope your problem is addressed.

Many of us explained that Customer & Supplier Header are share in Multi org.
Only site and adresses are OU dependant.
But in one specific responsability, link to a OU ans to a LE and to a SOB,
when you record transaction, of course you can select the "wrong" customer,
but at the step further, you will se that nothing is defined for your legal
entity and the system will refuse to go further. The security is there,but
only at second step.

You seem to be confusing Inventory Organisations and Operating Units.
You assign an operating unit to a user by setting the MO: Operating Unit
profile option (this should be done at site and responsability level).
There is no possibility of changing organisations without changing
responsability. To go "multiorg" usually refers to operating units.
You can avoid users getting confused on the inventory orgs by choosing
an adequate name for your orgs.

Bhanu,
We used separate order types in OE and transaction types in AR.
By linking these two, we got the AR AutoAccounting to reference a different
org.
We also had a few "exceptions" as always. We added a script which ran after
the orders were sent to the RA Interface table, which looked at order types,
and a few other items and changed the accounting in the interface tables.
This way it was not "custom" but a separate script.
