Question 1
Q1A multinational medical device manufacturer requires an enterprise structure that allows the central research and development division to create item definitions, maintain approved manufacturer lists (AML), and configure engineering bills of material without managing physical inventory balances or generating inventory accounting entries. Concurrently, regional fulfillment hubs must execute receipt, stock tracking, and intercompany sales for these items. Which enterprise structure component must be established for the central R&D division?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
In Oracle Fusion Cloud, an Item Organization stores item definitions, catalogs, categories, and engineering structures without tracking on-hand balances or generating cost accounting entries. This makes it the ideal repository for central engineering/R&D governance prior to assigning items to operational Inventory Organizations.
