Question

Options

• AGeneral Ledger is partitioned by Ledgers.
• BAccounts Payable is partitioned by Ledgers.
• CFixed Assets are partitioned by Operating Unit.
• DAccounts Receivable is partitioned by Operating Unit.
• EOrder Management is partitioned by Inventory Organization.

• A
  93% (25)
• C
  4% (1)
• E
  4% (1)

Explanation

In Oracle E-Business Suite, General Ledger is partitioned by Ledger (formerly "Set of Books"), which is the highest-level accounting entity defining the chart of accounts, calendar, and currency - making A correct. Accounts Receivable is partitioned by Operating Unit, which represents a business unit that sells goods/services and tracks receivables independently - making D correct.

B is wrong because Accounts Payable is partitioned by Operating Unit, not Ledger - AP transactions belong to the purchasing entity (Operating Unit), not the accounting structure. C is wrong because Fixed Assets is partitioned by Asset Book (Corporate or Tax Book), not Operating Unit. E is wrong because Order Management is partitioned by Operating Unit, not Inventory Organization - Inventory Organizations apply to inventory/manufacturing modules like Inventory and WIP.

Memory tip: Think "GL = financial structure (Ledger), AR/AP/OM = business operations (Operating Unit), Inventory/Manufacturing = physical location (Inventory Organization)." The module's nature tells you its partition: accounting → Ledger, transactional business → Operating Unit, physical stock → Inventory Org.
