Check into the RDBMS feature of "row-level security" (a.k.a. PL/SQL supplied package DBMS_RLS, a.k.a. "virtual private database"), which is an integral part of the "multi-org" functionality in Oracle Apps R11i. It's perfectly suited for your requirements...

I've a paper and a quickie little demo on "virtual private databases" on my website at www.evdbt.com/papers.htm, if that would be helpful. Good article about 2.5 years ago in Oracle Magazine also...
