Overview

The BEN_PRTT_ENRT_RSLT_F table is a core data object within the Oracle E-Business Suite Advanced Benefits module (BEN). It functions as a historical repository for enrollment results, capturing the compensation objects—such as plans, options, and coverage levels—in which a participant is enrolled. As a date-effective table (indicated by the '_F' suffix and the presence of EFFECTIVE_START_DATE and EFFECTIVE_END_DATE columns), it maintains a complete timeline of enrollment states, enabling accurate historical reporting and compliance with benefit plan rules that change over time. Its primary role is to store the definitive outcome of the enrollment process for each participant.

Key Information Stored

The table's structure is designed to link a participant to specific enrollment outcomes within a given timeframe. The primary key is a composite of PRTT_ENRT_RSLT_ID, EFFECTIVE_START_DATE, and EFFECTIVE_END_DATE, ensuring unique identification of each enrollment record period. The PRTT_ENRT_RSLT_ID itself is the unique identifier for an enrollment result instance. A critical foreign key column is PER_IN_LER_ID, which links the enrollment result to a specific participant's life event record in the BEN_PER_IN_LER table. This connection is essential for tracing which life event (e.g., hire, marriage, annual enrollment) triggered the creation of the enrollment result. While the provided metadata does not list all columns, the table typically contains references to the enrolled plan, option, and coverage details, alongside audit columns like CREATED_BY and CREATION_DATE.

Common Use Cases and Queries

This table is central to generating enrollment confirmations, audit reports, and eligibility verification. A common reporting use case involves querying a participant's current active enrollments by filtering on EFFECTIVE_END_DATE = '31-DEC-4712'. For auditing purposes, analysts may join to BEN_PER_IN_LER to report all enrollment results generated from a specific life event or during a particular open enrollment period. A typical SQL pattern retrieves a participant's benefit details:

  • SELECT prtt.prtt_enrt_rslt_id, prtt.effective_start_date, pln.name plan_name FROM ben_prtt_enrt_rslt_f prtt JOIN ben_pl_f pln ON prtt.pl_id = pln.pl_id WHERE prtt.person_id = 123456 AND SYSDATE BETWEEN prtt.effective_start_date AND prtt.effective_end_date;

Data from this table is also fundamental for integration with payroll systems to ensure correct deductions and contributions are processed.

Related Objects

The BEN_PRTT_ENRT_RSLT_F table has a documented foreign key relationship with the BEN_PER_IN_LER table, which stores information about participants in a life event. The join is performed on the column BEN_PRTT_ENRT_RSLT_F.PER_IN_LER_ID. This relationship is critical, as every enrollment result is typically associated with a life event record that initiated the enrollment process. While not listed in the provided excerpt, this table would also have foreign key relationships to core benefit definition tables, such as BEN_PL_F (Plans) and BEN_OIPL_F (Plan Options), via columns like PL_ID and OIPL_ID. It is also commonly referenced by summary and reporting views within the Advanced Benefits schema.
