Impact of Item Validation Org OM Parameter change

Summary

Can we safely change Order Management Parameter named Item Validation Organization with an open backlog of sales orders?

Hello OM Experts

For a phased implementation of SCM Cloud we are considering the following deployment plan in which Order Management Cloud Service would be enabled for multiple business units initially where all of them would share the same Item Validation Organization (IVO) set to a shared Item Master Org through Order Management Parameter set up like.

Business Unit               Organization

All business units        Item Master Org

Later on however, the likely plan is that the solution will need to evolve and items associated to different item validation organizations per business unit so that each company related business unit can only see and sell the items that are customer order enabled in this unit and not the items meant for another company (country specific).
