The FV_PB_SEQ_ASSIGNMENTS_ALL table in Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) versions 12.1.1 and 12.2.2 is a critical data structure within the Public Sector Budgeting (PSB) module, specifically related to the Federal Financials (FV) product family. This table stores sequence assignments for budget documents, ensuring proper tracking, numbering, and control over budget transactions. Below is a detailed analysis of its purpose, structure, and functional significance in Oracle EBS.

Purpose and Functional Context

The FV_PB_SEQ_ASSIGNMENTS_ALL table is primarily used to manage sequential numbering assignments for budget documents, such as Budget Execution (BE) documents, Budget Formulation (BF) documents, and other related transactions. In federal and public sector budgeting, maintaining a structured and auditable sequence of budget transactions is essential for compliance, reporting, and reconciliation. This table ensures that each budget document is assigned a unique identifier, adhering to predefined sequencing rules.

Key Columns and Data Structure

The table includes several important columns that define its functionality:
  • SEQ_ASSIGNMENT_ID: A unique identifier for each sequence assignment record.
  • DOCUMENT_TYPE: Specifies the type of budget document (e.g., BE, BF, or other custom types).
  • SEQUENCE_ID: References the sequence definition from related tables like FV_PB_SEQUENCES_ALL.
  • ASSIGNMENT_NUMBER: The assigned sequential number for the document.
  • DOCUMENT_ID: Links to the actual budget document in tables like FV_PB_DOCUMENTS_ALL.
  • ORG_ID: Indicates the organization associated with the sequence assignment, supporting multi-org setups.
  • CREATION_DATE, CREATED_BY, LAST_UPDATE_DATE, LAST_UPDATED_BY: Standard Oracle audit columns.
  • STATUS: Reflects the current state of the sequence assignment (e.g., active, expired, or pending).

Integration with Other Modules

The FV_PB_SEQ_ASSIGNMENTS_ALL table integrates with several other Oracle EBS modules and tables:
  • Budget Formulation and Execution: Works with FV_PB_DOCUMENTS_ALL and FV_PB_SEQUENCES_ALL to ensure proper document numbering.
  • General Ledger (GL): Budget documents may eventually post to GL, requiring traceability via sequence assignments.
  • Federal Financials (FV): Supports compliance with federal budgeting regulations, such as the Anti-Deficiency Act (ADA).

Technical Considerations

In Oracle EBS 12.1.1 and 12.2.2, this table is subject to the following technical behaviors:
  • Multi-Org Support: The _ALL suffix indicates it stores data for multiple operating units, filtered by ORG_ID.
  • Indexing: Typically indexed on SEQ_ASSIGNMENT_ID, DOCUMENT_ID, and SEQUENCE_ID for performance.
  • Concurrency Controls: Uses Oracle's standard locking mechanisms to prevent duplicate assignments.

Business Process Impact

This table plays a vital role in ensuring:
  • Audit Compliance: Sequential numbering provides an audit trail for budget transactions.
  • Data Integrity: Prevents gaps or duplicates in document numbering.
  • Reporting Accuracy: Enables accurate tracking of budget documents for financial reporting.

Conclusion

The FV_PB_SEQ_ASSIGNMENTS_ALL table is a foundational component of Oracle EBS Federal Financials, ensuring structured and compliant budget document management. Its design supports multi-org deployments, integrates with key budgeting processes, and upholds federal financial regulations. Understanding this table is essential for implementing, customizing, or troubleshooting Oracle PSB modules in EBS 12.1.1 and 12.2.2.
