Organization Tables – What Did You Just Use?
 HR_ORGANIZATION_INFORMATION
 Holds basic information for organizations
 Simultaneously holds the LE, OU, Ledger and Inventory ids
 Specify the org_information_context = 'Accounting Information‘

 Defines your basic inventory organization controls
• Costing Method
• Valuation accounts (Average Costing), default valuation accounts (Std)
• Purchase price, invoice price variance, inventory A/P accrual accounts
• Negative quantities allowed (yes or no)
• Enabled products: EAM, Project MFG, WMS, Process, etc.
• And many, many more attributes

Organization Views to Help You
 Here are useful organization views

Cost Groups

Helping people using Oracle Applications since 1990 Slide 21
Cost Groups
 Defaulted for Discrete Costing, one Cost Group per Organization
 Can have multiple CGs for Project MFG & Warehouse Mgmt (WMS)
 Project MFG allows multiple item costs by project or project group
 For WMS, per the reference manual:
 First, for all costing methods, accounts are determined by the cost group,
not by the subinventory or the organization parameters. The cost groups
allow items in the same subinventory to be held in different accounts.
 For actual costing, such as Average, FIFO, and LIFO, organizations, item
costs are held by the cost groups. When cost groups are assigned by item
status, the cost groups hold different item costs for items of different
status. In FIFO and LIFO organizations, the layer cost is maintained with
the cost group.
 In a Standard cost organization, a single Standard Cost is maintained for
each item. All inventory of that item, regardless of Cost Group, carries the
same Standard Cost.

Cost Relationships: Summary and Detail
 General Concepts
 ∑ CST_ITEM_COST_DETAILS = ∑ CST_ITEM_COSTS
 True by COST_ELEMENT_ID, LEVEL_TYPE or in total
 When you run a Cost Mass Edit it automatically corrects the
Summary Cost table to equal ∑ CST_ITEM_COST_DETAILS
 If not equal the Standard Cost Update will fail
 If not equal the ∑ (Qty X Unit Costs) ≠ ∑ accounting entries
