    Oracle Trading Community Architecture (TCA) provides a central data model for managing party relationships across an enterprise. It allows users to define parties like customers, suppliers, employees and track current and historical information about them. TCA also models complex relationships between parties and supports mixed business models. The key components of TCA include parties, relationships between parties, locations, contacts and customer accounts. In R12, TCA was enhanced to include additional entity types like suppliers, banks, and legal entities. It also provides new APIs to access and manage TCA data.

    R12 TCA (Trading Community Architecture):

    What is TCA?
    Oracle Trading Community Architecture (TCA) is a data model that allows you to manage complex information about
    the parties, or customers.
    Trading Community Architecture is the implementation of technology and applications to allow users to create and
    maintain relationships among entities. It is a way to understand who your customer interacts with inside and outside
    the enterprise.

    Note: Customer, Vendor, Supplier are the terms that we come across very frequently.
    For instance: We buy goods from a Shop Vendor so we are the Customer to that Vendor and the Vendor is our
    Supplier for that good. The Vendor gets goods from a merchant who actually produces it (Manufacturer), so now the
    vendor in-turn becomes a customer to the Manufacturer who is the Supplier.
    The complete TCA can be related and runs around all these terms, these may be people we meet generally who might
    be a Supplier or Customer in our perspective.
    Now moving ahead lets go in details about TCA.
    How TCA Matters?
    Before TCA:
    There are multiple customer definitions across the enterprise.
    It was very difficult to track current and historical information about the customers.
    There was a lack of support for mixed business.
    It was quite tough to understand relationships between customers and others (suppliers, partners, competitors)
    After TCA:
    Create a central repository for the entire E-Business Suite to store information relating to all members of a trading
    community versus separate tables for each member-Prospects, Customers, Contacts, Employees, Partners,
    Distributors, Suppliers, Banks, etc.
    Record complex business relationships between Trading Community entities (including 3rd party relationships).
    Support all business models, industries, and geographies.
