Each organization is required to have at least one organization unit. However, Personify provides the ability to establish multiple organization units, which allows a single organization unit to own its own products and orders and not make them visible to other organization units in the organization. It enables the organization unit to segregate:
· Product management
· Customer orders
· Financial transactions
· Staff
Membership information (member group and levels, chapter membership) is visible to all organization units within an organization.
You can define the following defaults for an organization unit:
o Create Business Objects Environment
· Subsystem Parameters
· Commissions and Sales Territories
o Sales Territories [not implemented]
· Advertising Control
· Address Information
· Shipping Information
· Default GL Accounts
o Receipt Types & Cash Accounts
· Security Setup
· Abstract Review Process
o Import Abstract Review Process
If
after creating your unique organization unit, you plan on deleting the
Startup Org/Org Unit, make sure you have at least copied the TRS setup
codes, notification setups, and security groups/personas before deleting
the Startup Org/Org Unit.
For more information on doing completing the aforementioned steps, please
refer to Defining Organization Unit System
Information and the Importing
Personas and Permissions, respectively.
