R12 - TCA

[kommineni7]

Hi All,

Everybody telling that, suppliers/customers are moved to TCA architecture in R12.

1)What exactly stands for TCA.. what are the exact benefits from TCA?

2) In TCA , suppose i created supplier name called "ABC Suppllier" with two sites. with the same name system will create Customer also? then we need to create site under the customer.

Thanks in advance,
venkatesh

1) TCA is Trade Community Archetechture. All the Suppliers and Customer headers information is stored in this.

2)Only the Supplier(Here after called as Trading Partner from R12) header information is stored at TCA and Supplier Sites are stores at Payable level.
