Using the Multiple Organization Support Feature

You can use the Oracle Applications Multiple Organization Support feature to use multiple sets of books for one Cash Management installation. You can then assign a set of books (with its unique calendar, chart of accounts, and functional currency) to each operating unit you define. With the Multiple Organization Support feature you can segregate transactions by operating unit but you can still choose to share certain information.

Multiple Organization Support affects bank reconciliation in Oracle Cash Management. Each responsibility is tied to a set of books and an operating unit. Use the MO: Operating Unit profile option to tie a responsibility to an operating unit organization. In a multiple organization environment, you set up System Parameters (of which set of books is one) for each operating unit. You assign bank statements to your current operating unit, and reconcile payments and receipts in that operating unit.

Multiple Organization Support does not affect cash forecasting in Oracle Cash Management, since cash forecasting is designed to allow you to collect data across organizations if you have a multi-organization environment. You can choose whether to specify an organization, and therefore a set of books, for each forecast source row.

For more information read the Multiple Organizations in Oracle Applications manual before proceeding.
