This guide shows you how to create an organization in Oracle EBS (E-Business Suite) by copying an existing model organization. You create an interface record, launch the Organization Copy concurrent request, track it to completion, and then verify the new organization. The example copies organization 809 (RSR_3) to create organization 810 (RSR_4).
Prerequisites
Before you begin, make sure you have the following:
- Access to Oracle E-Business Suite, with the Navigator - Inventory, Vision Operations (USA) window open.
- An existing model organization to copy from. This example uses organization code
809(RSR_3). - A location that already exists for the new organization. This example uses
Cmalur. You can check available locations in the list of values. - An unused organization code for the new organization. This example uses
810, the next code after 809.
