• Release 3.2 coming to Production in April

– Administrator can create Organization(s)

performance

– Pursuing SSAE 18 regarding G-Invoicing controls in alignment with the mandate

• Seller Initiated Orders

deferred payments.

• There were numerous questions presented in the survey results related 

to the new Organizational Model

• Responses to these questions are too detailed to cover in ITWG call

• The next Office Hours call (Feb 18 at 10 am EST) will be used for this 

purpose

• Example Questions:

– Why does Rule 5 prohibit "child" groups from viewing Orders of groups higher up?

– How will ALCs will be associated with a group and not a GT&C?

– Can a user group be created for the group that executes Performance, and be added 

to each organizational group that creates Orders?

– Can users of a parent Group set up a GT&C or Order for a child Group?

– We would like an explanation/demonstration of (1) setting up the roles and access 

group assignments for a new user and (2) modifying an existing user from SDAG 

access to organizational access.

– How will the Org hierarchy impact notifications?

– What are the values for Group Types?
