Profiles Options:

1. Consistent Profile Option Values:

All responsibilities in one operating unit must share the same profile
option values and the same sequence numbering option. The Validation Report
indicates an error if this is not the case, and notes when profile options
should be set at the responsibility level.

2. HR:Business Group

This section applies to you only if you have multiple business groups, or
if you do not choose to use the default business group provided by Oracle
Applications.

If you have multiple business groups, you must associate each

responsibility with one and only one business group. You associate a
responsibility with a business group via the HR:Business Group system
profile option. If you are upgrading to Multi-Org, you must also associate
each existing responsibility with a business group.

After you have associated business groups with responsibilities, you can
enter business group setup information such as additional organization
information and business group classifications.

If you have multiple business groups, verify the HR:Business Group

profile option before you define organizations in each business group.

3. MO:Operating Unit

You must set the MO:Operating Unit profile option for each responsibility.
Set this profile option to the appropriate operating unit id (ORG_ID) for
each responsibility. The operating unit context for each responsibility is
set via this profile option.

This profile option must be set for Oracle Training Administration (OTA)
responsibilities when OTA is used in a Multi-Org environment. This is to
ensure that the OTA customer and supplier functions work correctly in a
Multi-Org environment.

You must also define the default operating unit by setting the
MO:Operating Unit profile at the site level. If this is a fresh
installation, the default operating unit can be any operating unit you
have defined. If this is an existing installation, you should assign as
the default operating unit the operating unit to which all existing data
should belong.

4. The following profile options affect the operation of the Create Intercompany AR Invoices process:

a) INV: Intercompany Currency Conversion

Determines the conversion type for foreign currency invoices.

b) Tax: Allow Override of Tax Code

Determines whether tax code information should be passed to AR for freight.

c) Tax: Invoice Freight as Revenue

Indicates whether freight lines should be invoiced as revenue lines.

d) Tax: Inventory Item for Freight

Use this inventory item when freight lines are invoiced as revenue lines.

e) OE: Item Validation Organization

Inventory organization in which the freight item specified in the profile
Tax: Inventory Item for Freight is defined.

5. OE:Item Validation Organization

The OE:Item Validation Organization profile option determines the

inventory organization that Order Entry uses to validate items. Some
inventory item attributes for Receivables and Order Entry, including
Tax Code and Sales Account, are specific to an operating unit or an
accounting flexfield structure. Therefore, you should use the OE:Item
Validation Organization profile option to define an item validation
organization for each operating unit.

NOTE: Profile OE:Item Validation Organization is no longer used from 11.5.x forward.
Instead a system parameter in order management
is used to set the OM (order management)item validation org.
Responsibility: Order Management Super User
Navigate to: Setup > System Parameters > Values
Select the applicable operating unit (for instance: Vision Operations)
Select the category as Generic Parameters
Review the line for parameter = Item Validation Organization

Also, it is important that profile QP: Item Validation Organization

is set to the same value as defined for the OM system parameter for
item validation.

6. Update Profile Options Specific to Operating Units

Use the Update System Profile Options window to set profile options that are
specific to each operating unit. You must set these profile option values for
all relevant responsibilities that connect to each operating unit.

Some profile options, including AR:Receipt Batch Source and AR:Transaction

Batch Source, reference data that is secured by operating unit. You must set
these profile options at the responsibility level.

For profile options that need to differ at the operating unit level, including
OE:Item Validation Organization, OE:Set of Books, and GL Set of Books, you must
set the values at the responsibility level. Oracle General Ledger windows use
the GL Set of Books profile option to determine your current set of books. If
you have different sets of books for your operating units, you should set the
GL Set of Books profile option for each responsibility that includes Oracle
General Ledger windows.

For profile options that need to differ at the set of books level, including
Sequential Numbering, set the values at the responsibility level.

Profile options specify default values that affect system processes, system
controls, and data entry. In a multiple organization environment you may want
to confine the effect to a specific operating unit. Therefore, you may want
to change your profile options to be visible and updatable at the
responsibility level.

@Applications' manuals for Release 10 or 11.
