General
Introduction of the Organizational Unit Functions (OU) reporting
Segregation of the P&L between
Costs controllable by the Division (“above the line” or “BU controllable costs”) and;
Costs directly controllable by the OU (“below the line” or “non BU controllable costs”).
Costs not controllable by the Division (“below the line”) need to be carved-out from the Divisional P&L.
Implication
Creation of a new Organizational Unit (OU) for Novartis Technical Operations (NTO) within FCRS;
Functional reporting embedded in FCRS impacted by the new NTO BU for Sandoz;
Creation of new accounts within FCRS and xPMR to allocate “below the line” costs to the new NTO BU;
Changes within local ERP are to feed new NTO BU and new FCRS and xPMR accounts.
