Organization Hierarchy

You can verify that an item or group of items were set up correctly, copy organization-level item attributes from one item to other organizations that use the item, and copy item attributes from one item to another within an organization.

1.       INV: Inter-Organization currency conversion
This indicates the currency conversion for inter-organization transfer between organizations using different currencies. Available values are: Corporate, Spot or User
·         Corporate: An exchange rate you define to standardize rates for your company. The corporate exchange rate is generally a standard market rate determined by senior financial management for use throughout the organization.
·         Spot: An exchange rate you enter to perform conversion based on the rate on a specific date. It applies to the immediate delivery of a currency.
·         User: An exchange rate you specify when you enter a foreign currency journal entry that does not have a daily exchange rate.
2.       TP: INV Inter-Organization Transfer form
This indicates the processing control of inter-organization transfers in the Inter-Organization transfer window. Available values are: Background processing, concurrent processing or online processing.
·         Background processing: When processing starts, control returns immediately to you, allowing you to continue working. The inter-organization transfer transactions run on a periodic basis.
·         Concurrent processing: When the concurrent process runs, you retain control so you can continue working in the system windows. Displays the concurrent request number of the concurrent process that is running the inter-organization transfer transactions.
·         On-line processing: Processes your inter-organization transfer transactions while you wait, and control is returned to you after transaction processing has completed. When Oracle Inventory is installed, this is the default value that is used for all levels of responsibility.
