Mutlti-Org Access Control (MOAC):
------------------------------------------
User Access to Multiple operating units is called Multi-Org Access Control.
Multi-Org Access Control enables companies that have implemented a shared services operating model to efficiently process business transactions by allowing them to access, process, and report on data for an unlimited number of operating units within a single applications responsibility. This increases the productivity of shared service centers, as users no longer have to switch responsibilities when processing transactions for multiple operating units at a time. Data security and access privileges are still maintained using security profiles that now support a list of operating units.

•Access one or more operating units using single responsibility.
•Enhanced reporting capability using:
–Reporting level parameter
–Reporting context
