Order Management - System Parameters

System Parameters for Order Management are set at the Operating Unit level. The setup screen is available under Order Management Super User responsibility (Navigate: Setup > Parameters)

You can set the value for "Item Validation Organization" (Inventory Organizations) to define which Inventory Organization you can use to transact items in a given Operating Unit.

An Item Master Organization is used for item master data maintenance and validation. This master organization serves as a data repository storing items and item attributes, master level categories and category sets, master level cross references, and numerous data defaults.

In Order Management, the Item Validation Organization parameter indicates the Oracle Manufacturing organization against which items are validated. You must also define all transact able items in this organization.
