Introduction

An organization is an enterprise of a Client. Each client must have at least one organization created by running the Initial Organization Setup process. The process of creating an organization ends after setting it as "Ready".

In other words, the process of creating an organization ends after setting it as "Ready" as Openbravo requires to perform a set of checkings which validate that the organization has been properly created and that the organization structure is valid. If an organization is not properly created Openbravo will display an error when trying to set it up as ready.

It is not possible to add new organization aboveOnce an organization is set as ready no changes can be made in the sense of that to the organization anymore. New organizations can be added but cannot be placed above the current organization but underneath or at the same level.
