4 Jurisdictions

A jurisdiction is a territory such as a country, state, or region, where certain laws apply and judicial authority is exercised.

You can use jurisdictions to limit access to data in the report. In the OFS CTR CS, you can manage data or reports associated with jurisdictions to which they have access.

For example,
  • Geographical: The division of data is based on geographical boundaries, such as countries, states, and so on.
  • Organizational: The division of data is based on different legal entities that compose the client’s business.
  • Other: Combination of geographical and organizational definitions. It is client-driven and can be customized.

In most scenarios, a jurisdiction also implies a threshold that enables the use of data attributes to define separate threshold sets based on jurisdictions. The list of jurisdictions in the system resides in the FCC_JURISDICTION_B and FCC_JURISDICTION_TL tables.

Use this section to view or modify existing jurisdictions and add new jurisdictions. The jurisdictions list displays the code, name, priority, and description related to the existing jurisdictions.
