10.1.9 User-Defined Organizational Units

Additional organizational dimensions may be added as user-defined key dimensions. For example:

• In a Management Ledger implementation, you may wish your profitability implementation to record the organizational source of allocated expense balances to facilitate inbound-outbound center-to-center allocation reporting.
• When loading account-level data into the OFSAA Data Model, you will normally map your Book-of-Record cost center to the Organizational Unit dimension (the value that reconciles to your General Ledger). You might also define a Relationship Owning Center or a Company, Line of Business, or Legal Entity dimension.
