Establishing Regulatory Transaction Types

To establish regulatory transaction types, use the Regional Transactions component (REG_TRX_REGION).

These topics provide an overview of regulatory transactions and discuss how to add regulatory regions to a transaction.

Usage

Regional Transactions - Regions in Transaction Page

REG_TRX_REGION

Define the regulatory regions that make up a regulatory transaction type.

Two sets of regulatory transactions are already defined in the system as shown in the following table:

Regulatory Transaction

Countries or Regions Included

Reason

STANDARD

All countries that are supported in the system.

Most applications apply regulatory and legislative edits at the country level.

HANDS (Health and Safety)

All countries that are included in the system, plus the Canadian provinces.

Most applications apply regulatory and legislative edits at the country level, but Canada has specific provincial laws governing their Health and Safety reporting.

Use the two pages in the Regional Transactions component (REG_TRX_REGION) to assign new regulatory regions to these transaction types (if you have added countries or regulatory regions to the system) and to establish new regulatory transactions.

Use the Regional Transactions - Regions in Transaction page (REG_TRX_REGION) to define the regulatory regions that make up a regulatory transaction type.
