Geography Structures for Kuwait

A geography structure is a hierarchical grouping of geography types for a country.

Geography information is used in Oracle Fusion applications for address entry and geography-based business processes, such as territory management and shipping. Before defining enterprise structures, you must verify predefined geographies and load any additionally required local geography. There are no predefined geographies for Kuwait and you must define it.

Use these steps to setup geographies for Kuwait:

Select Manage Geographies in the implementation project checklist.
Select KW and click Search to create the geography setup and content.
Select the type of geography data you want to verify.

Relate Geography Types

You can determine how a country's geographies are hierarchically related by creating the hierarchy of the geography types in the geography structure. When you define a country's structure, the geography type Country is implicitly at the top of the geography structure at level 1. The subsequent geography types that you add after country are numbered in sequence.

Keep in mind that you must add a geography type as a level in the country structure before you define a geography for that type in a country.

Define Geography Types

You can use any of the master reference geography types to create your geography structure. If required, you can create a geography type, before adding it to the country structure. Each geography type is added after the current lowest level.

Note: Keep in mind that you can't delete geography types that have associated geography data. You can only delete the lowest level geography type of the country structure.

Also remember that a geography type that you create within the country structure can be used for other country structures as well.
