The BSC_COLOR_TYPE_PROPS table in Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) versions 12.1.1 and 12.2.2 is a critical component of the Balanced Scorecard (BSC) module, which is part of Oracle's Enterprise Performance Management (EPM) solution. This table stores configuration data related to color-coding schemes used for visualizing performance metrics, thresholds, and KPIs (Key Performance Indicators) within the BSC framework. Below is a detailed technical summary of its structure, purpose, and functional relevance in Oracle EBS.

Purpose and Functional Context

The BSC_COLOR_TYPE_PROPS table defines color properties associated with different performance indicator types in Oracle BSC. It enables administrators to configure visual representations (e.g., red/yellow/green thresholds) for metrics displayed in dashboards, scorecards, and reports. This table works in conjunction with other BSC metadata tables like BSC_KPI_COLOR_THRESHOLDS and BSC_SYS_COLORS_B to enforce consistent color-coding rules across the application.

Table Structure and Key Columns

The table typically includes the following columns:
  • COLOR_TYPE_ID: Primary key identifier for the color type configuration.
  • COLOR_TYPE_CODE: A unique code representing the color scheme (e.g., 'THRESHOLD', 'TREND').
  • COLOR_TYPE_NAME: Descriptive name of the color type.
  • APPLICATION_ID: Links to the Oracle application module (e.g., BSC module ID).
  • DEFAULT_COLOR_ID: References BSC_SYS_COLORS_B.COLOR_ID for default color assignments.
  • ENABLED_FLAG: Boolean indicating whether the color type is active.
  • CREATION_DATE, CREATED_BY, LAST_UPDATE_DATE, LAST_UPDATED_BY: Standard Oracle audit columns.

Integration with BSC Functionality

  1. Threshold Management: The table supports dynamic threshold-based coloring (e.g., red for underperformance, green for targets met).
  2. Trend Analysis: Color types may represent directional trends (e.g., upward/downward arrows with assigned colors).
  3. Customization Allows organizations to tailor visual indicators to corporate branding or industry standards.

Technical Considerations

  • Indexes: Typically indexed on COLOR_TYPE_ID and COLOR_TYPE_CODE for performance optimization.
  • Dependencies: Child tables may reference COLOR_TYPE_ID via foreign keys.
  • Patches & Upgrades: Customizations to this table may require special handling during EBS upgrades.

Usage Example

A SQL query to retrieve active color types: 
SELECT COLOR_TYPE_CODE, COLOR_TYPE_NAME 
FROM BSC_COLOR_TYPE_PROPS 
WHERE ENABLED_FLAG = 'Y' 
AND APPLICATION_ID = [BSC_APP_ID];

Conclusion

The BSC_COLOR_TYPE_PROPS table serves as a foundational element for visual performance management in Oracle BSC. Its configuration directly impacts user experience by translating quantitative data into intuitive visual cues. Administrators should exercise caution when modifying its data, as changes may propagate across dependent BSC objects and reports.
