The AMV_ACCESS_TO_TABLE_CODE lookup type in Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) 12.1.1 or 12.2.2 is a critical component within the Oracle Application Object Library (FND), specifically used in the context of the Oracle Marketing (AMV) module. This lookup type defines the access control rules governing how users interact with database tables in marketing applications, ensuring data security and proper authorization mechanisms. Below is a detailed breakdown of its purpose, structure, and implementation.

Overview of AMV_ACCESS_TO_TABLE_CODE

This lookup type serves as a reference data set that categorizes different levels of access permissions for database tables in Oracle Marketing. It is part of the FND_LOOKUP_TYPES and FND_LOOKUP_VALUES tables, which store system-wide lookup definitions in Oracle EBS. The values defined in this lookup type are used to enforce row-level and table-level security, ensuring that only authorized users can perform specific operations (e.g., read, write, update, delete) on marketing-related data.

Key Attributes and Values

The AMV_ACCESS_TO_TABLE_CODE lookup type typically includes the following standard values:
  • FULL – Grants unrestricted access to the table, allowing all CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) operations.
  • READ_ONLY – Permits only read operations, preventing modifications to the table data.
  • WRITE – Allows insert and update operations but restricts deletions.
  • NO_ACCESS – Denies all access to the table, making it invisible to unauthorized users.
These values are stored in the FND_LOOKUP_VALUES table with a lookup type of AMV_ACCESS_TO_TABLE_CODE and are referenced by the Oracle Marketing module to enforce security policies.

Implementation in Oracle EBS

The lookup type is utilized in conjunction with Oracle's Function Security and Data Security frameworks. When a user attempts to access a marketing table, the system checks their assigned responsibilities and privileges against the access codes defined in this lookup. For example:
  • If a responsibility is mapped to READ_ONLY, users under that responsibility cannot modify campaign data.
  • If a table is assigned NO_ACCESS, it is excluded from query results for unauthorized users.
This mechanism ensures compliance with organizational security policies and prevents unauthorized data exposure.

Technical Configuration

Administrators can manage this lookup type via Oracle EBS forms or SQL scripts:
  • Navigation Path: Application Developer > Application > Lookups > Define
  • SQL Query: 
    SELECT * FROM FND_LOOKUP_VALUES WHERE LOOKUP_TYPE = 'AMV_ACCESS_TO_TABLE_CODE';
Custom values can be added if needed, but Oracle recommends adhering to standard codes to maintain compatibility with future upgrades.

Integration with Oracle Marketing

In the AMV module, this lookup type is referenced in:
  • Campaign Management: Controls access to campaign tables (e.g., AMV_CAMPAIGNS_B).
  • Customer Segmentation: Restricts access to customer data tables.
  • Reporting: Filters data visibility in marketing analytics.

Conclusion

The AMV_ACCESS_TO_TABLE_CODE lookup type is a foundational element in Oracle EBS 12.1.1 and 12.2.2, enabling granular access control for marketing data. By defining permissible actions at the table level, it enhances security and ensures regulatory compliance. Proper configuration of this lookup type is essential for maintaining data integrity and operational efficiency in Oracle Marketing implementations.
