Legal Entity Details in place of Operating Unit Detail in PO_STANDARD_XSLFO

Hi all,
I want to replace the Operting Unit name and Address, which is coming on first page of PO output for Communication, by Legal Entity name and Address.
In the XSLFO template above the Operating unit Details they had given the Legal Entity Name and Address(It is Commented).... What i did, i commented the Operating Unit Details and uncommented the Legal Entity details.....
but after doing this i am not getting legal Entity details in PO Output.. Its giving Blank on that place.....
anyone has any idea.. why it is not printing LE details......
Regards
Ravi

Hi Tim,
I am not adding any extra field from myside.....
LE fields are present in template..... but they are commented there...
Operating Unit Fields are also present there.... But they are uncommented.....
It looks by seeeing the code of Template that we can use LE deatails in place of Operating unit details...
I just did reverse... Uncommented the LE deatails and Commented the Operating unit details...

Pay Operating Units from different Legal Entities?

Pay Operating Units from different Legal Entities?
Hi there,
This is the current scenario:
Legal Entity A has Operating Unit A
Legal Entity B has Operating Unit B.
In R12 Payables, can payments be setup so that in the payments manager of Operating Unit A (LE A), payments can be made for Operating Unit B (LE B)?
i.e. Can an operating unit from one legal entity make payments from an operating unit from another legal entity?
The bank account is setup in LE A, but when we create a payment process request with invoices from different OUs of different LEs, then only invoices from the LE in which the bank is setup are selected for payment.

1.OU's are not mapped to LE directly (at least for Payables). The OU LE relationship is derived via the ledgers. So if Ledger A is attached to OU A and Ledger A is attached to LE1 and LE2. I guess what I am saying should be possible.
2.If I understand correctly the new functionality that you are refering to is for the Payment Process Request (PPR, payment batches in 11i). This feature is more wrt MOAC changes that were done and not Cross OU payments.
What it allows you is to select invoices from different LE,different OU's, different Currencies and different pay groups. It does not allow you to have Invoice in OU1 and payment for that invoice in OU2.
Thanks

What is a Legal Entity and Operating Unit??

Hi,
Could someone let me know what exactly is a Legal Entity and Operating Unit. The definition or explanation in the documentation is not satisfactory or clear. What are the differences between the above.
And where in the per_all_assignments_f table is the Legal entity stored. I know that the Legal entity is stored in the Statutory information in the assignments screen. Also can someone let me how based on the company code in the organization the legal entity is linked. Where in the tables is this link maintained?
Could someone let me know the above.
Thanks
Shekar.

Dear Shekar
what exactly is a Legal Entity and Operating Unit?
ANS: According the Book or user guide definitions says:
GRE/Legal Entity: Use this classification to represent the following organizations:
Ultimate Legal Entity: this represents the enterprise, and typically, the enterprise is the highest (global) level of a business organization.
Legal Entity: this represents the designated legal employer for all employment-related activities. The legal authorities in a country recognize this organization as a separate employer. In an organization hierarchy, a legal entity may report to an operating company or to the ultimate legal entity.
Consolidated Legal Entity: this organization acts on behalf of multiple operating companies that are not legally registered, or simply on behalf of the enterprise in a country.
See Shekar the Legal Entity is taken under Classification is we know that the organization is going to show the Taxation to the Government. where as if u take typical UAE countruies here every store is an LLC and they submit the taxing for every store or shop.
Where as Operating Unit is generally used for the different lines of business which are under that Business GRoup
Say for an Example:
ABC is the Company name and that has its root in UAE, Qatar and Oman
then it is like ABC Business Group > UAE Legal Entity > REtail/Property/Furniture etc are the Operating Units.
Hope this information is helpful and clear to you or else let me know if you have any concerns.
Coming to the Company Code we use the code for the Inventory Organizations so that the clients will not get confused with the existing code and the system code so generally we use the same codes for it.

Need help about Financials Operating Unit Level Setup data object transforming

Hi All,
We met some issues while using iSetup to create new OU from existing one via 'Financials Operating Unit Level Setup’ template and need your help.
We can perform Extracting successfully, but when we’re tring to proceed Transform, it seems iSetup can’t meet our expectation.
Firstly, after succesful creation of the Transform for 'Financials Operating Unit Level Setup’.
We clicked the transform icon and it led us to the Details page.
However, we can’t search out any result on that page, is it a bug?
If we didn’t performed ‘Transform All’, then there’s no row shows on Transform Details page so we can't make any transform, as below:
But after performing a ‘Transform All’ task, revisite the Details page and unfreeze, Operating Units and Inventory Organizations became transformable, as shown in below screenshots.
Secondly, we found the transformable data objects are so limited, even the whole Payable Options and Finacial Options doesn’t support, as well as the Operating Unit short code.
Is there any documents indicating which data objects are transform supported? Or if there’s any sql query for it?
Will be very appreciated if anyone can help.

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that machines failed to ping the server name, and successfully to ping its IP address.
First check to see if DNS related port 53 is opened on the DC, or disable any anti-various software temporally, then ping the DC’s
FQDN and confirm that if the name would be resolved.
>The host 7acf7675-12f6-4280-84ff-ca225bc99373._msdcs.REGENCYVILLAGE.LOCAL could not be resolved to an IP address.
You domain name is REGENCYVILLAGE.LOCAL. It seems that the DNS server failed to resolve your DC’s name. check the zone named REGENCYVILLAGE.LOCAL to see if an A record is corresponding to your DC.
>75.75.75.75 (<name unavailable>) [Invalid], 75.75.76.76 (<name unavailable>) [Invalid]
It seems that invalid IP address of DNS server on the TCP/IP properties of DC.
I want to confirm with you that if you have installed the DNS with installing AD DS. Just the DC’s name can’t be resolved? Or any other device also has the same question?

FUTURE VERSIONS Legal Entity / Cross Operating Unit Direction

Hello,
I am aware that the Multi-Org Team is in the process of redesigning MO to allow a lot more Cross-Operating Unit (built into Legal Entity?) functionality over the next 18 months to allow users to work in a responsibility but across Operating Units. e.g. allow cross-Operating Unit Receipts in AR.
Is there a Statement of Direction for new MO work or some initial analysis I could get hold of that would assist us in planning our roadmap for the next few years? Dates are less important than direction / functionality of what will be available. I'm aware this may not be available for public distribution but we'll truly appreciate all help.
We are one of the larger European sites, currently running 57 books on R11i single-instance (GL, AP, AR, FA, PO, SSP5). We have upgraded to 11i and EFCed last year. We are now in the process of strategic planning for a complete restructure of our Financials system to match a new legal and operating structure. We are looking ahead 2-3 years down the track here.
If there's someone in Oracle (or elsewhere) I can speak to get this information, I know SAS will be quite happy to do this - also we are quite aware that the information implies no commitments from Oracle.

Shaan- the Org Hierarchy is where I can't see the connection: Legal Entities in the org hierarchy are HR organizations, but Legal Entities used in Intercompany Billing setup (e.g. Provider/Receiver Controls page) are GL Legal Entities setup in Accounting Setup Manager. Do you know how does the system connect HR LEs to GL LEs?

Legal Entity and Operating Unit Setup

Hi,
we are in a process of implementing Oracle Financials R12.1.3 to a group of company (Ex:"A").
That parent company ("A") associates with another three subsidiaries (Ex: A1, A2 and A3). All these four companies can share the same ledger and operating in one country.
So I'm with bit confusion whether It can use One Legal Entity with four operating units or do we have to create four legal entities?
Awaiting for clarifications and Thanks / Lathika

Hi All,
You have to think beyond application functionality, if there these 3 subsidiaries are registered with different name under local governance law then you should create separate Legal entity for each company or subsidiary.

Configuring Legal Entity as Operating Unit without creating new OU

Hi,
I have read the doucment "120funmo.pdf" on page 25/60. Eastern operations can be created as Legal entity and identify as Operating Unit and Inventory organization without creating any new OU and INV. ORG.
How this can be achieved?
I have created Ledger and "Eastern Operations" as Legal Entity and trying to find a way to identify it as OU and INV. ORG.
Thanks,
Narendra

Suppliers are across all Operating Units so you see the same set across Operating Units.
Supplier Sites are partitioned by Operating Unit.

Can Legal Entity - Operating Unit have One to One Relationship in R12

Hi,
I want to configure one Legal Entity to one Operating Unit in R12 as it was in 11i. ie One to One Relationship, How can I achieve this ?
Thanks in Advance,
Thejas

That is because you're not setting it, obviously. Nowhere in your code are you actually populating the order property of the orderlines.

Enter single receipt to multiple legal entities / operating units

Dear All,
My customer having a business requirement where customer is clubbing the payment for two separate organizations and sending them as one check (single receipt). However they are entering separate invoices for each organization. That mean they do not clubbing invoices in multiple organization but they are accepting checks for both organization and issuing one receipt to the customer. How can i handle this scenario in oracle EBS R12. Is it possible for me to handle this through inter company functionality in oracle.
Organization set up :These two companies have have separate ledgers , legal entities under same business unit.
Edited by: 914625 on Jun 1, 2012 4:35 AM

Hi Vikash
Legal Entity can have many establishments, like warehouse, showrooms, distribution hub spread across a country.
Each Establishment may be in different states/counties with the same federal country.
So in case of India, it can be in Arunachal Pradesh, Gujrat and Karnataka.
Each of them may be subject to Municpal tax or local State taxes.
Oracle would need to identify that operating units/ inventory organization doing transactions is associated with which Establishement ( under this legal entity ).
And it will calculate the local and state taxes accordingly.
In nutshell this setup is for tax. So go by what Tarun has said.
Thanks

Why do we need Legal Entity?

Hi,
I have read some of Oracle manuals and the discussion on the web. However, I still don't get why we need Legal Entity in EBS. What's difference between Organization Unit (actually I read some on the web)? Since we just need Org_ID in the subledger tables for various operational units, why we still bother to create Legal entity? In some web sites, it always mentions it is used for taxation purpose or repoorting. But I can't find any reports which is generated reply on the legal entity.
I am so confuse on this. Can anyone clarify my mind? thanks a lot in advance.
Regards,
Edmond

Hi Edmond,
the purpose and usage of Legal Entity is not as visible as that of Operating units / Inventory Orgs, however it gained its importance due to the way Configuration has been designed. I would say it is more of a configuration compliance than a feature that meets business expectations ...
You can create a Ledger without Legal Entity, which is allowed by the system, whereas you cannot create an Operating unit without having a legal entity in place....
All security features, transaction controls, reporting requirements are extracted at the Operating unit level ..
When will the legal entity be used during the application operation/reporting?
From Reporting perpective, it plays a vital role.... The reporting requirements of any organization is classified as two, one is BUSINESS need another is LEGAL/STATUTORY need. Now the statutory auhtorities would demand information from a company that has a separate legal presence ...the Statutory authorities are not keen on how many operating units we have under one particular establishment ...it is purely the way how we operate internally ... All custom reports or standard reports available at the Operating
unit level gathers information of the respective legal entity as well....So when i plan my Multi org structure or configuration i should design my operating units in such a
fashion, that it must be grouped under appropriate Legal Entities.
Oracle mentioned about that legal entity is used for taxation and financial reporting. How can we do that?
Legal Entity definition and BSV assignments are used by the system internally on various configurations and also at transaction processing stages, which incidentally includes taxation
aspects and financial reporting .... the statement refers to the system design and not a feature available for configuration ...
What is the difference that more than 1 OU are assigned to 1 single legal entity VS only 1 OU is assigned to 1 single legal entity?
The difference in first case is that, (i.e. 1 OU = 1 LE)
Your operating unit data reflects the Complete Legal Entity Data, hence there is no specific report that needs to be designed for legal entity.
The difference in second case is that, (i.e. 1 or more OU = 1 LE)
every operating unit contains partial information of your Legal Entity and not complete, hence in order to know your Legal Entity's performance or statements, you are to define a report which would club data pertaining to all operating units under it...
If a legal entity is assigned to a ledger, what's the difference if balancing segment is assigned to the ledger VS the balancing segment is assigned to the legal entity?
Honestly, there is no difference since you are allowed to create transactions for all of those BSV's values, there is no system restriction or validation happens during data entry ... However there could be a valid justification from system design/architectural perspective which we may not be aware of .. But there are differences like, when you do not have BSV values at LE level, it impacts certain configuration.... etc ....
All of your questions are very valid, i have only given my views/comments, these are not FINAL answers... :)

Double Cost A/c impact of brrow & lent and Intrcompany in same legal entity

Hello Experts / Dina,
Could someone please explain me the double cost accounting impact on borrowed and lent process and inter-company accounting in same legal entity scenario?
Example – Lets say US company X-star running the project on Mobile Apps development in US consulting division (Project Organization) and the resources from marketing division (Expenditure organization) are working on it on developing marketing campaign and decided to share the cost 100%.
Using Borrow and Lent:-Assume MIS cost is charge of USD 100 on Project Mobile Apps Development. A/c is
Debit- US Company-Marketing (Expenditure Org)-MIS Cost A/c (Expense A/c)-100 USD.
Then if you use borrowed and lent accounting method the accounting entries will be generated as
Debit- cost to US Company –US Consulting (Project Org) – MIS Cost A/c (Expense A/c)-100 USD
Credit- cost to US Company-Marketing (Expenditure Org)-MIS Cost A/c (Expense A/c)-100 USD.
In this case cost on Expenditure organization is totally reverse and cost is only charge to provider organization.
In Inter-company scenario:- But let say if you are trying to implement the same scenario using inter-company accounting.
Then MIS cost charge of USD 100 on project will derive the same accounting as mentioned above.
Debit- US Company-Marketing (Expenditure Org)-MIS Cost A/c (Expense A/c)-100 USD.
Revenue will generate below accounting.
Credit- US Company-Marketing (Expenditure Org)-MIS Revenue A/c (Revenue A/c)-100 USD.
And payables intercompany invoice in provider organization will generate below accounting.
Debit- cost to US Company –US Consulting (Project Org) – MIS Intercompany Cost A/c (Expense A/c)-100 USD.
Now the question is why in Inter-company scenario (2nd case example ) the cost of expenditure organization is not reverse similar like in borrow and lent scenario? I guess implementation of intercompany scenario results in double costing for same company (within legal entity).
But this might look properly when you implement inter-company approach across legal entity as company can report separate expense and (internal-external) revenue across company.
Similarly like inter-company scenario when you use inter project billing, you end up in creating double costing. Am I right?
Please let me know whether my understanding is correct?
Your reply on this will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
:-)

Hi
Here are my responses along side your questions:
1.With borrow and lent you cannot only cross charge within the same operating unit but also cross charge across operating unit only within same legal entity. Am I right?
No. Borrow and Lent works only within the same operating unit. This functionality does not involve supplier and customer invoices, only accounting entries. When you cross operating units you must use the intercompany billing process.
2.On the below example explained below sec 2.1; this perfectly works fine in scenario where organization within legal entities are agree to share the revenue.
But what if the organizations agreed to share the cost? In that case it should generates the accounting mentioned below in section 2.2. Am I right.?
2.1>; (Example provided by you- share revenue)
Debit org B on "Internally Purchased Cost" account
Credit org A on "internal Revenue" account
2.2>;(same Example used by me with diff scenario of sharing the cost)
Debit org B on "Internally Purchased Cost" account
Credit org A on "Labor Cost A/c" account
If so then isn't it nullifying the cost generated by Org A previously.
2.2.1>;
Debit Org A on "Labor Cost A/c"
after generating borrow & lent
Debit org B on "Internally Purchased Cost" account
Credit org A on "Labor Cost A/c" account
Resulting in general ledger module showing the cost on Org B "Internally purchase cost"
Am I right?
In my example the credit of the provider organization is on account - Internal revenue. This is not considered as revenue share, since the revenue of org A from its customer agreement is not decreased.
Internal revenue and internal purchased costs are two accounts that are different from the norma business accounts. When you report in GL for the organization A you will get external revenue of 1000, labor cost of A of 300, and internal purchased cost of 400. So margin of org A is 1000-300-400 = 300.
When you report in GL for the organization B you will get internal revenue of 400, labor cost of 370, and org B margin is 400 - 370 = 30.
When you report in GL for the entire company (summary of bot organizations) you will have - External revenue of 1000, labor cost of 670, and total margin of 330.
Note the margin of the company is shared by org A -300, and org b - 30.
To get the report of the total company I did not included the internal trading accounts - the internal purchased cost and the internal revenue.
In the approach you provided you credited the cost of org B, rather than credit an internal revenue account. That is also a legitimate approach. However for audit use I could suggest to use a separate account for crediting the costs o org B, and not the same original account of labor A/C.
3.But lets say now if organization are agreed to share the cost but instead of using borrow and lent, they are agreed to use inter-company functionality then
accounting entries will result mentioned below.Am I right?
3.1>;
Cost - Debit Org A on "Labor Cost A/c" account
Inter-comp Invoice - Debit Org A on "Inter Receivable A/c" account
Credit Org A on "Inter-revenue A/c" account
Payables inter invoice - Debit Org B on "internally purchase a/c" account
The accounting results of both processes could be the same. The difference is the introducing of AP & AR invoices and the need to run payments on both sides. In any case on org A you always debit an account which means internally purchase, cost purchased from another organization. On org B you always credit an account that could be named internal revenue or cost reimbursement or cost reduction, etc.
Now my worries are if both the process agrees on same principle of sharing the cost design for
same purpose then why results in different accounting by finally creating double costing on Org A and Org B as well. Am I not sure whether my understanding is correct. Please help.
Also mentioned by you earlier..
"In GL you may want to offset both the internal trade accounts on a balancing value of cost center. So the internal revenue credit will offset the internally purchased cost debit."
I am not sure how you can offset the internal revenue and cost account for Org A in GL. (is this done manually??) Could you please explain in detail if possible?
My note about the need to offset in GL is related to the method of reporting. As explained in the example above, when reporting on the entire company you need to omit the internal trade accounts. The method I use is to set up additional cost center value in GL which is not related to any real organization. This cost center is used for offset entries.
I take the balance of internal purchased cost from of organizations and create a journal entry of the same amount but negative for the offset cost center. The same is done for the balance of internal revenue of all cost center. As a result the total internal purchased cost and the total of internal revenue at company level (accross all cost centers) is zero. Now you can report on the entire company without the affect of the internal trade. Those journal entries may be created automatically by allocation rules set up in GL.

MO Operating Unit Profile Option Needed for Mass Allocation in R12

Mass Allocation does not work in R12 unless you set MO Operating Unit profile option at GL Responsibility level. Is that an official requirement from Oracle or is that a bug? A client should be able to implement and use GL without setting operating units as they are needed for subledgers.

Hi
I have found the below mentioned information on MO: operating Unit Profile option from the Oracle E-Business Suite Multiple Organizations & Oracle General Ledger Reference Guide which directly or indirectly requires the setting of the profile option at the appropriate level (responsibility, site etc)
Profile Options not Owned by General Ledger:
The following profile option affects the operation of General Ledger, but is not "owned" by General Ledger:
• MO: Operating Unit - This profile option controls which operating unit a particular responsibility is assigned to.
Note: General Ledger's Account Inquiry window ignores the setting of this profile option. This allows you to drill down to your subledgers independent from their multiple organization setup. As a result, when you drill down to subledger details, General Ledger will show you all of the transactions that comprise an account balance, regardless of which organization originated the transaction.
To use multiple organizations, you must define an accounting setup with at least one legal entity, a primary ledger that will record the accounting for the legal entity, and an operating unit that is assigned to the primary ledger and a default legal context (legal entity).
You must set either the MO: Operating Unit or MO: Security Profile profile option for each application responsibility to use Multiple Organizations context sensitive applications. When you connect to the Oracle Applications, you sign on by entering your user name and password. Then, you choose a responsibility that is available to your user. After you choose your responsibility, there is an initialization routine that reads the values for all profile options assigned to that responsibility. Oracle Applications allows you to see only the information for those operating units that are assigned to your responsibility.
Hope this helps.

Renaming of Business Group, Legal Entity, Ledger & Inv Org

Dear All,
We are using Oracle EBS R-12 and would like to rename the followings as our company name has been changed.
* Business Group
* Legal entity
* Ledger
* Operating Unit
* Inventory Organization
We just want to know that is there any issue after change the name of above?
Regards,
Abdul Hafeez

Hi
For the Business Group, Operating unit & Inventory Org. You can rename the organizations name no problem from the define organizations form query for the organization you want to rename, rename it and save.
For the ledger you can update your ledger name no problem. GO to accounting setup manager find you ledger update accounting setup> update journal processing> rename your ledger> Finish.
For the legal entity GO to accounting setup manager> Legal Entity (T)> Find your legal entity> View details> Update> Rename your Legal Entity name. Do the same for the legal establishment.

Second COA/ Operating Unit setup

I have a requirement to implement a second operating unit that would utilize a slightly different chart of accounts, that will eventually be consolidated to a less detailed original chart of accounts.
Do I have to setup a new Legal Entity and a new primary ledger to accomplish this?
The new chart of accounts is more detailed than the original one and would have an extra segment. Since an Operating Unit can only be assigned to a Primary Ledger, and the same Legal Entity cannot be used by more than one primary Ledger, does that mean that setting up a new Legal Entity is inevitable?
Is there another way to achieve this?

I believe this is done be defining profile options at the responsibility level - see MOS Doc 551282.1 (What Profile Is Used To Populate the Operating Unit In OM Systems Parameter Form?)
