Business unit administration
Business Unit Administration (BUA) brings together a number of functions to enable a
more cohesive approach to the management of business units and the business unit groups that
they belong to.
Note: Business Unit Groups should not contain more than 100 Business Units. Exceeding this
number could lead to performance issues and impact future upgrade times.
Business Unit Administration returns a list that includes the domain database, the attached business unit groups and business units.
The list is ordered domain first, then alphabetically by business unit group and business unit.
