R12: Setting up MOAC (Multi Org Access Control) in R12

Prior to R12, end users use to toggle / switch / change responsibilities in order to do
transactions (like invoice / payment processing in AP) in different operating unit. This is a very
time consuming and inefficient way of recording transactions when you have 100s of
operating units specially Internet based organizations who have world wide operations in
almost all the countries.

To address this, a new feature in R12 has been introduced in which user can switch between
operating units within a responsibility something similar to "Change Organization" feature in
inventory. Prior to R12, user would have to switch responsibilities in order to enter
transactions in respective operating units (tagged to the responsibility).
To enable this feature, Oracle has provided MOAC (Multi Org Access Control) in R12 to
achieve this functionality.

Most of the setup steps for this is similar to setting up of HR Security. So, if you know how to
set HR security then setting MOAC is just a piece of cake.

Do the following setups as part of MOAC setup-

Step 1. Create Organization Hierarchy-
Navigate to Human Resource responsibility > Define Organization Hierarchy
