Multi-Org Access Control - Description:
In 11i, when users had to enter or process data for multiple operating units, they had to login to different responsibilities because each responsibility could only access one operating unit. So if there were a centralized payment processing center where users processed payments for multiple organizations, they would have to keep logging in and out of different responsibilities to process payments for a different organization or operating unit.
Now in Release 12, Multi-Org Access Control enables companies that have implemented a Shared Services operating model to efficiently process business transactions by allowing users to access, process, and report on data for an unlimited number of operating units within a single application’s responsibility.
This increases the productivity of Shared Service Centers as users no longer have to switch application responsibilities when processing transactions for multiple operating units. Data security and access privileges are still maintained using security profiles that will now support multiple operating units.
Multi-Org Access Control - Example:
For example, if you have three operating units in the center you were managing, such as a Belgium Operating Unit, a Holland Operating Unit, and a Denmark operating unit, in 11i you needed to define three different responsibilities. If you had one user who processed payables invoices across all three operating units, then you would need to assign the three responsibilities to that user and then the user would need to log in and out of each responsibility to process invoices.
In Release 12, you can create a Security Profile and assign as many operating units as you want to that security profile. So in this example, you could assign all three operating units to the same security profile. Then, you can tie that security profile to a single responsibility using a profile option called MO: Security Profile. For example, you could assign the security profile to the EMEA Payables responsibility to allow that responsibility to process invoices across all three operating units.
Processing payables invoices is just one example, with Multi-Org Access Control, you can efficiently perform other processes, such as processing receivables invoices, viewing consolidated requisitions, performing collections using Advanced Collections, and process receiving and drop shipments.
MOAC - Benefits:
•Improve Efficiency
–Process data across multiple OUs from one responsibility
–Process transactions more efficiently for companies that have centralized business functions or operate Shared Service Centers
•Obtain better information for decision making
–Obtain a global consolidated view of information
–View information, such as supplier sites and customer sites across multiple OUs
•Reduce Costs
–Speed data entry
–Reduce setup and maintenance of many responsibilities
Multi-Org Access Control Process Summary:
Each Financials product team has implemented MOAC to best suit their business process flows. For example, in AP, there’s a new operating unit field on their Invoice Workbench. The OU list of values reads from the Security Profile assigned to the responsibility to determine which OUs should be displayed in the LOV. In general, when a user logs in to a responsibility and opens an application, the application will determine which operating units can be accessed and used for processing. The user can then view or process transactions for multiple operating units.
