A1: This happens when the User do not have access for Maintenance of bank accounts.
Please go to User Management and verify the access for the User/Responsibility:
Please note: In Release 12 Bank Accounts are owned by Legal Entities and can be accessed by multiple Operating Units. In Prior Releases the Bank Accounts were Operating Unit Specific. For all Internal Banks you must assign a Legal Entity. If the Legal Entity has been configured and it does not appear in the List Of  Values in the Bank Account setup then you may need to run the CE UMX Security Wizard to ensure the Legal Entity is available to the Responsibility you are using to access Cash Management.

Run CE UMX SECURITY WIZARD:
1. Login as System Administrator user and then switch responsibility to User Management.
2. Click in Roles & Role Inheritance link

Question 4: When you try to open the form of Setup -> Banks -> Bank Accounts, it Error:
You have encountered an unexpected error. Please contact the System Administrator for assistance. JBO-30003: The application pool



To implement the solution, please execute the following steps in test instance::
1.Set the 'MO: Security Profile' profile option at Responsibility level as required.

a. Using System Administrator Responsibility.
b. Navigate to Profiles > System.
c. Query for the Responsibility used and for Profile: 'MO: Security Profile' .
d. Kindly check the value attached to the security profile: 'MO: Security Profile' .
e. If security profile is not set, attach a value to it.

2. Run Security List Maintenance concurrent program (from HRMS responsibility).
While running the concurrent program choose the right parameters. Like 'Generate List for'
parameter must have a value which depends upon the kind of security profile you are running. If
your security profile is global then choose 'All Global Security Profile' from the list. For
non-global choose All Security Profiles.
3. Restart Apache server.
4. Retest the issue.

Question 5: What level System Profile option can be updated ?
 A change has been made to HRMS Security to enable you to set up security for Oracle Financials and Manufacturing applications that use organizations and organization hierarchies in their business views.
To do this, you create a single security profile that secures data either by single operating unit or by operating unit and inventory organizations, as required.

You must also set the MO:Security Profile profile option at site or application level, to point to this new security profile.

To establish multi-operating unit access for some business view users, you can create for each type of user a security profile that secures organizations by organization hierarchy, using the existing security profile functionality. You can then set the MO:Security Profile option at responsibility level for these
users. the HR:Security Profile profile option is used. This function is called by financials and manufacturing business views.

The View All Organizations check box in the Organization Security tab of the Security Profile window has been replaced by the Security Type poplist, which contains four options:
- View all organizations (no security) Existing Option. This replaces checking the View All Organizations checkbox.
- Secure organizations by organization hierarchy Existing Option. This replaces unchecking the View All Organizations checkbox.
- Secure organizations by single operating unit New option
- Secure organizations by operating unit and inventory organizations New option.

Q7: What is the MO:Operating Unit profile option used for?
A: The MO:Operating Unit profile option must be set to the appropriate value at either the Responsibility or User level.
This profile option is used to distinguish which Operating Unit will be used by the users that login into Oracle Applications.

Q8: What is MO Security Group profile ?
A:Please note that in R12 bank accounts are owned by legal entity. The bank account access page is used to provide access of the bank account to a particular operating unit. The operating units for which the access can be provided is controlled by the MO: security profile.

In summary, users can see and maintain the bank accounts that are owned by legal entity to which they have the access provided. For example, the user has access to LE1, then all the bank accounts where the account owner is LE1 will be displayed to the user. Please be very clear: User will have an access to a Bank Account (BA) if any of the following conditions satisfies:

*Bank Account Maintenance or Use security is setup up for LE (UMX Security wizard)
*MOAC security setup includes OU (based on MO:Security Profile)
*HCMS (Business Group) security setup include OU (HR:Business Group)
*Treasury user security setup includes LE ( from treasury user access)
Q7: How Bank Account Security is implemented using the UMX data security?
Bank Account Security:
Two different security mechanisms are provided to secure bank accounts: Bank Account Maintenance security and Bank Account Access security. At a high level, Bank Account Maintenance security secures the creation and update of bank account data,
whereas Bank Account Access security secures user access of the bank accounts

Bank Account Maintenance Security:
In Bank Account Maintenance security setup, you can assign one or more legal entities to each role (responsibility). In the creation flow, the Bank Account Owner LOV will display only the legal entities that are assigned to your role in this security setup. In the update flow, users can only query the bank accounts whose owner is assigned to your role.

Note: When a user is assigned to multiple roles with multiple Bank Account Maintenance Security setups, all security rules are defined for the user even though the user may access the application through only one particular role.

Bank Account Maintenance Security is implemented using the UMX data security model. A setup wizard called Cash Management Security Wizard facilitates the setup procedure.

Bank Account Access Security:
The Bank Account Access security rule feature is built on top of Bank Account Access Setup and Cash Management Security Profiles. Bank Account Access setup provides a list of organizations that have access to a given bank account; whereas Cash
Management Security Profiles provides a list of organizations an application user has access to. If there is at least one common organization between Bank Account Access setup and Cash Management Security Profile then users will be granted access to the bank account. For example, if bank account 101 has account access setup with operating unit OU1, and if user OPERATIONS has access to OU1 in the profile, then the user can view and use bank account 101.
Q9: How to define Legal Entities?:
If you plan to record accounting transactions for one or more legal entities, you can use Oracle
Legal Entity Configurator or the Legal Entities tab in Accounting Setup Manager to define your
legal entities.

Using Accounting Setup Manager, Legal Entities tab:
Navigation : Setup >Financials > Accounting Setup Manager > Accounting Setups
Tab : Legal Entity
Button: Create Legal Entity

Difference Between MTS, ATO, MTO ,PTO ,CTO and ETO.

 Make-to-stock (MTS) In MTS environments, products are created before receipt of a customer order. Customer orders are then filled from existing stock, and then those stocks are replenished through production orders. MTS environments have the advantage of decoupling manufacturing processes from customer orders. Theoretically, this enables customer orders to be filled immediately from readily available stock. It also allows the manufacturer to organize production in ways that minimize costly changeovers and other disruptions. However, there are risks associated with placing finished goods into inventory without having a firm customer order or an established need. These risks tend to limit MTS environments to simple, low-variety, or commodity products whose demand can be forecasted readily.  Assemble-to-order (ATO) In ATO environments, products are assembled from components after the receipt of a customer order. The key components in the assembly or finishing process are pla
