Overview

The concurrent program APXBCOBN, presented to users as the Batch Control Report by Batch Name, is a standard Oracle Payables reporting utility. It belongs to the AP - Payables module and is shipped in an enabled state, meaning it is available for submission without further configuration once the Payables application is installed and patched. As its name indicates, the program produces a control report that aggregates and reconciles invoice batch activity, keyed and selected by batch name. This makes it a companion to the batch-level control reporting used during the invoice entry and validation cycle, allowing Payables staff to confirm that invoices within a named batch have been entered, validated, and accounted for consistently.

The program is a reporting object only. It does not create, update, or delete transactional data, and it performs no posting or accounting activity. Its output is a formatted report intended for review, reconciliation, and audit support rather than for data maintenance.

Execution Details

The documented metadata for APXBCOBN records the following execution attributes:

  • Execution Method: Oracle Reports
  • Argument Method: Standard
  • Executable: APXBCOBN
  • Execution Filename: APXBCOBN
  • User Name: Batch Control Report by Batch Name
  • Enabled: Yes
  • Product: AP - Payables

Because the execution method is Oracle Reports with a Standard argument method, the report is driven by concurrent program parameters defined against the executable APXBCOBN. The Standard argument method means parameters are defined and passed in the ordinary fashion for a Report-type concurrent program, rather than through a token-based or special-purpose mechanism.

How to Run

Users submit APXBCOBN through the standard Submit Request window (SRS), typically from the Payables responsibility. Navigate to View > Requests > Submit a New Request (or the equivalent Reports/Requests menu path) and select Batch Control Report by Batch Name from the list of available programs.

Upon submission, the SRS form displays the program's parameters. As the report is selected by batch name, the primary parameter is the batch name (or batch selection criteria) that scopes the report to the desired set of invoice batches. Users should supply the exact batch name for which control totals are required; leaving selection unrestricted may produce output for all qualifying batches and can significantly increase run time and output size. Standard concurrent program controls — print options, number of copies, language, and the run schedule — apply as with any Oracle Reports submission. The completed request can be viewed from the Requests window once the concurrent manager has processed it.

Related Objects

APXBCOBN operates against the core Payables invoice batch structures. It is conceptually related to, and commonly run alongside, the following objects within AP - Payables:

  • Invoice batches and the invoice entry/validation workbench, which define the batch names and batch control totals the report reconciles.
  • Other batch-oriented Payables control and audit reports that summarize invoice, distribution, and accounting activity by batch.
  • The Payables invoice tables underlying the report, from which batch-level control information is drawn.

Because the program is read-only and report-based, it has no associated interface tables or public APIs; it neither loads nor extracts transactional data. Its role is confined to providing a printable control view of batch activity for reconciliation and audit purposes.
