Organization create request


 

Description

Creates an Organization with specified details. It performs all the steps required to create entries in core company forms and onboard the organization so that it is usable through BMC Cloud Lifecycle Management without any manual step. Creates FoundationCostCenter and FoundationLocation records as well if they are passed as part of the Organization parameter.

BMC recommends that you delete the custom provider and use the out-of-the-box API/provider when you upgrade to version 4.6.
