LE Design - Models
1:Many
LE are mapped to the Balancing Segment Value (BSV, aka Company
code) within a Ledger, so multiple LE are accounted for in a ledger.
An OU will have one Ledger assigned so transactions for many LE are
processed and accounted in a single OU
1: 1: 1
A single LE is mapped to a Ledger
An OU will have one Ledger assigned
Therefore an OU only has one LE (that means it is easy to derive the LE
given the OU)
What Model Should I use ?
That Depends on where the LE is registered
The 1:M model is recommended and preferred in the
US, the 1:1:1 model is recommended for most non
US regions.
How to Set Up Legal Entity ?
Legal Entity Configurator
Establishment
Building block of a Legal Entity.
100% owned and controlled by the Legal Entity.
Required for registrations within local level Jurisdictions.
Legal Authority
Legal body in charge of enforcing legislation, collecting fees/taxes and making
financial appropriations.
Key Concepts
Jurisdiction
Is a formulation of a legislative category and territory to which legal rules are
grounded.
Legal Associations
Centralized repository and a common mechanism for maintaining associations
between business entities (BSVs, OUs, etc) and legal constructs (legal entities,
establishments).
Default Legal Context
One of the Legal Entities sharing the Ledger will be stored on the Operating Unit
(OU) when the OU is created. This LE will provide any downstream process with
a DLC, which will act as a proxy for the owning LE.
Legal Entity Stamping
Stamping is the identification and recording of the first party legal entity for the
given transaction. The first party legal entity is the legal entity that owns the
transaction.
