Business Unit
Academy synthesisAn internal organisational unit within a legal entity, with its own management reporting and cost structure.
Why the distinction matters
Business units are where management reporting is cut. Departments sit beneath them.
Not to be confused with
- Legal Entity
Business units roll up to a legal entity. Treating them as the same thing collapses statutory and management reporting onto one structure.
Also called
- Business unit
- Organisational unit

Evidence
This entry is academy synthesis. It describes how the term is used rather than restating an Oracle definition, so no claim backs it. Where Oracle documents a specific behaviour, that behaviour is recorded as a claim elsewhere in the curriculum.
