1Z0-517 practice question 12 of 25

XYZ Corp. has acquired ABC Corp. XYZ operates with Multi-Org Access Control. Consequently XYZ Corp. needs to add additional Operating Units. Identify the statement that describes the sequence for adding additional Operating Units.

Answer options

A: It is not possible to add additional Operating Units.

B: Set the MO: Operating Unit profile option, run the Replicate Seed Data concurrent request, create the Operating Unit, and create new responsibilities as necessary.

C: Set the MO: Security Profile profile option, run the Replicate Seed Data concurrent request, create the Operating Unit, and create new responsibilities as necessary.

D: Create the Operating Unit, run the Replicate Seed Data concurrent request, create new responsibilities as necessary, and set up the MO: Default Operating Unit profile option.

E: Create the Operating Unit, run the Replicate Seed Data concurrent request, assign the Operating Unit to a security hierarchy, run Security List maintenance concurrent program,create new responsibilities as necessary, and set up the MO: Security Profile profile option. Correct answer

Correct Answer:

E. Create the Operating Unit, run the Replicate Seed Data concurrent request, assign the Operating Unit to a security hierarchy, run Security List maintenance concurrent program,create new responsibilities as necessary, and set up the MO: Security Profile profile option.

Explanation

In Oracle E-Business Suite R12 with Multi-Org Access Control (MOAC), adding a new Operating Unit (OU) requires a specific sequence to ensure data security and proper initialization. First, the OU must be created. Next, the "Replicate Seed Data" concurrent request is run to populate essential seed data for the new OU. Because MOAC uses security profiles to control access across multiple OUs, the new OU must then be assigned to an organization security hierarchy. Following this, the "Security List Maintenance" program must be executed to apply the hierarchy changes. Finally, administrators create or update responsibilities and assign the "MO: Security Profile" profile option to grant users access to the newly configured OUs.

Why Incorrect

A: It is entirely possible and common to add new Operating Units to an existing Multi-Org environment as a business expands or acquires other entities. B: "MO: Operating Unit" is a legacy profile option for single-OU access, not MOAC, and the sequence incorrectly sets profiles before creating the OU. C: The sequence is backward; the Operating Unit must be created before it can be assigned to a security profile or have seed data replicated. D: This sequence omits the crucial steps of assigning the OU to a security hierarchy and running the Security List Maintenance program, which are strictly required for MOAC.
