   Table 1. Primary info tab

   Field	Description
   DUNS Number	Enter the unique nine-digit identification sequence, which provides unique identifiers of the business entity.
   Primary URL	Enter the URL of the organization's Internet address, if applicable.
   Administered By	Select the organization code of the organization that you want to administer this organization. Only the selected organization can make any changes to this organization in the Applications Manager.
   Locale	Select the organization's geographic location.
   Resource Identifier	Enter the Resource Identifier for the organization.
   Parent Organization	Choose in the organization hierarchy who is the parent organization.
   Organization Suffix	Enter the organization suffix for the organization. The organization suffix is used when creating a buyer organization for a business customer.
   Legal Entity	Select this field if this organization is its own legal entity. A legal entity is an organization unit identified by local governments as operating units and are typically instituted for each country or region a business operates in. The organizational unit is typically self-contained and is involved in recording all relevant transactions and generating all supporting documents for financial statements. For example, if you are a 3PL and have configured your 3PL as a Hub organization comprised of two Enterprises, one in the United States and one in India, both the US and Indian Enterprise organizations are their own legal entities. Important: If you are configuring a Seller organization, be aware that the Seller organization of one legal entity cannot fulfill orders by sourcing directly from another legal entity. In this case you would need to create a procurement purchase order with the organization. A procurement purchase order is a type chained order that is created when the final shipping point to the customer is a node within your organization and the shipping node does not have enough stock and needs to be replenished from an external organization's node.
