Associating Organizations to Lists of Values

You associate organizations to LOV types and to LOV values. Before associating organizations to LOVs, be sure to review Guidelines for Setting Up Organization Enabled Lists of Values.

To associate organizations to LOV types and LOV values

1. Navigate to the Administration - Data > LOV Explorer view.

   The List of Values Explorer view displays LOV Types in a tree structure. You can expand each LOV Type to see the LOV values associated with the LOV Type.

2. In the List of Values - Type applet, run a query for the LOV Type that requires organization-specific LOV values.

   The records found are displayed in the List of Values - Type applet and in the LOV explorer.

   NOTE:  You can also navigate to the LOV Type in the LOV explorer.

3. Select the LOV Type and then click the Select button in the Organization field.
4. In the Organizations dialog box, select the organizations you want, click Add, and then click OK.

   The organizations you add here will be available to associate to LOV values of this LOV Type.

5. In the LOV explorer, expand the LOV Type and the Values folder underneath it.

   The list of values for the selected LOV Type are displayed.

6. In the List of Values applet, create sets of LOV values for each organization.
   1. In the List of Values applet, click New.
   2. Type a value for the Display Name and Code and select an organization to associate with the LOV value.

      NOTE:  Code is typically the same as Display Name.

   3. Repeat for each LOV value that you want to associate to an organization.

      Each LOV value can only be associated with one organization. Therefore, if a given value needs to be associated to more than one organization, you must create a duplicate value for each organization.

      If an LOV Value is not associated to an organization, it is available to all organizations, except those organizations that are associated with the LOV Type in Step 4.

7. Choose Menu > Clear Cache.

   After clearing the cache, the LOV changes take effect.
