Step 14 Define Locations

Use this window to define each work location used by your enterprise. You define each location and address once only. This saves you time if you have several organizations with the same address.

This window contains information, such as Inventory Organization, that is used by other Oracle Applications.

See: Setting Up Site Locations

Step 15 Define Business Group

The Business Group is the largest organizational unit on the system, and all other information you enter belongs to one Business Group.

If you are implementing Oracle Human Resources, use your HR Business Group in Oracle Training. Administration This allows you to share data on people, organizations, locations, and skills across the applications. Before you can define a Business Group for Oracle Human Resources, you must define five Key Flexfields.

See: Implementation Steps: Basic Administration

If you are implementing Oracle Training Administration without Oracle Human Resources, use the supplied setup Business Group, with all of its default definitions, as the starting point for your own Business Group. This Business Group is used by the default responsibility.

See: Creating a Business Group for Oracle Training Administration

Step 16 Link Responsibility to Business Group

If you are using the setup Business Group and default responsibility, you can omit this step.

If you use more than one Business Group you must set up a separate responsibility and user profile for each group.

This is a task for your System Administrator.

First create a new responsibility. Copy the supplied default responsibility if you want the new responsibility to use the predefined menus.

See: Defining A Responsibility

Then in the System Profile Values window, select this new responsibility, query the HR:Business Group option, and enter the name of your Business Group.

See: Setting User Profile Options

Step 17 Define Organizations

Organizations are the basic work structure of any enterprise. They usually represent the functional, management, or reporting groups that exist within a Business Group.

If you are implementing Oracle Human Resources, refer to your HR documentation for information about how organizations are used in that application.

See: Employers and Organizations

If you are not implementing Oracle Human Resources, the only organizations you need to define are your internal training departments.

Suggestion: When you install Oracle Training Administration you will find a predefined list of Organization Classifications. These values are defined for the QuickCode Type ORG_CLASS, and provide options for all users of the Organization window.

You can disable the QuickCode values you will not use in your implementation in the QuickCodes window.
