Selected User Interface Elements for Setting Up Entities
The following sections describe Selected user interface elements.
Contact
The selected contact is the recipient of Workflow notifications related to the entity. This
leverages the role based model available in the Oracle User Management.
See: Oracle Applications System Administrator's Guide - Security
See: Impact Analysis, page 15-2
Secure by Role
If you select to secure by role, only the roles that you specify can access and update the
entity. If the entity is an operating entity, only the assigned roles can submit data and
adjustments for that entity. If the entity is a consolidation entity, only the assigned roles
can submit consolidations for that entity.
See: Role-Based Security, page 21-1
Image File
You can upload an image file to represent the entity. The image file must be in GIF
format and be no larger than 16 x 16 pixels.
Enable Entity
If you disable an entity, you cannot include the entity in new hierarchies. Disabling an
entity has no effect on an existing hierarchy where the entity is already included.
Note: If you disable a consolidation entity's controlling entity, the
consolidation entity is treated as though it were disabled.
Note: Once you disable an entity, you will not be able to re-enable it.
Source System
Select a source system for the operating entity. This is the system used for managing the
entity's operational activity and account balances throughout the accounting period.
Whether you select an Oracle General Ledger or a third party data source system, it
determines some of the fields that must be entered for the entity.
If you specify any additional data types, each additional data type can have a different
