Division Group

Oracle Revenue Management and Billing enables you to group one or more divisions into a geographic region or segment. This grouping can be based on various factors, such as business cut-off time, source data file availability and volume, etc. You can then process the source data of a geographic region or segment via a single job schedule. This is done with the objective to support data processing from multiple divisions in the same batch job, and thereby achieve maximum utilization of resources and improved business performance. Note that each division in the geographic region or segment is a stand-alone entity and can be processed in any order.

To introduce this new feature, the following changes are made to the system:

• A new maintenance object named C1-DIVGROUP and a new business object named C1-DivisionGroup are introduced in this release.

• A new screen named Division Group is introduced in this release.

The Division Group screen is accessible from the Admin menu. It enables you to define a division group where you can include one or more divisions that are already defined in the system. It also enables you edit, delete, and copy a division group. You can set the status of a division group to Active or Inactive. The system will then allow you to use active division groups while executing batches in the system. Note that the Division Group parameter will be added in the required batches in the future release of ORMB. However, at present, if you want you can create the required division groups and add the Division Group parameter in the required custom batches.
