Using Organizations, Suppliers and Customers
In Oracle HRMS, organizations are the internal departments, divisions, sections, or units that comprise the reporting structures within your enterprise. They can also be external organizations, such as recruitment companies (for HR departments) or tax offices (for Payroll departments). In Oracle Training Administration, you set up your internal training departments as organizations.
Suppliers are internal or external agencies who supply your enterprise with goods or services. In Oracle Training Administration, you enter the names, addresses and contacts for the suppliers who provide training or resources for training (such as venues or equipment). These are the only names and addresses you can enter on payable finance headers.
Customers are internal or external agencies to whom you supply goods or services. In Oracle Training Administration, you set up as customers:
- the names and addresses of the organizations where external students work, or through which they can be contacted
- the names and addresses to appear on invoices for student enrollments
- any third party agencies through whom you handle enrollments
- the customers for which you run private events and those for which you create special enrollment agreements
Organization, supplier and customer information is shared with other Oracle Applications.
Accounting Reference Data
You need to set up additional accounting reference data for use by supplier and customer windows only if you do not have Oracle Financials in your enterprise. If you do have Oracle Financials, some of the data you require already exists.
