Consolidated Legal Entity
A consolidated legal entity acts on behalf of multiple operating companies that are
not legally registered, or simply on behalf of the enterprise in a country. With the
preceding diagram as an example, the ultimate legal entity has established a single legal
entity in Ireland. This entity acts on behalf of Operating Company A and Operating
Company B, which operate in Ireland but are not independently registered there, so the
consolidated legal entity in Ireland represents those individual operating companies.
Oracle HRMS represents the consolidated legal entity with the GRE/Legal Entity
organization classification. In the preceding diagram, the consolidated legal entity for
Ireland reports directly to the ultimate legal entity.
Representing Organizations
In Oracle HRMS, the organizations you set up to represent your enterprise as an
employer are the Business Group, and in the US and Canada, one or more GREs within
the Business Group.
Below this level, you represent the groupings in which employees work, such as
branches, departments or sections, by means of internal organizations. To enable
the assignment of employees to an internal organization, you classify it as an HR
Organization.
Korea users onlyYou must also define an organization classification called Business
Place. You assign your employees to the business place in Korea, and use this to store
establishment information such as business registration number, health insurance
number, and address.
You also maintain information in the system about various types of external organizations
relevant to human resources and payroll management and administration. These can
include training vendors, tax offices, benefits carriers, or certification bodies.
External organizations can appear in your organization hierarchies together with internal
organizations and are defined in the same way.
Note: You can never assign employees to external organizations, even
those classified as HR Organizations.
Organization Types
When setting up an organization you can give it an organization type to identify the kind
of unit it is, and the part it plays in your enterprise. Examples of organization types can
be Administration or Service, or the level of each organization in your enterprise, such
as Division, Department or Cost Center.
You can use organization types to report on the different sorts of organizations you set
up. You create the organization types you require by entering values for the Lookup
Type ORG_TYPE.
You can use organization types to report on the different sorts of organizations you set up.
Organization Classification
Whenever you create an organization you have to give it a classification, such as Business
Group or HR Organization. The classification you give to an organization defines its
purpose and functionality within Oracle HRMS.
