Overview

GMS_RXI_BURDEN_EXCEPTION_V is a reporting view in the Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) Grants Accounting (GMS) module. Its purpose is to expose burden (indirect cost) exceptions recorded against sponsored awards, projects, and tasks, enriched with the derived multipliers and burdenable costs required to evaluate indirect cost calculations. The view combines transactional burden exception data from GMS_RXI_BURDEN_EXCEPTION with award, project, task, organization, and Oracle Projects indirect cost setup tables (cost codes, compiled multipliers, compiled sets, cost base expenditure types, and rate schedule revisions).

In EBS 12.1.1 and 12.2.2, the view is not implemented in the base database by default (per the ETRM metadata, "Not implemented in this database"). It is a query definition rather than a physical object, meaning it becomes available when the relevant Grants Accounting and Oracle Projects objects are present and the view is created during installation or patching. It is most relevant to indirect cost (IDC) burden exception analysis and reconciliation.

Underlying Base Objects

The view is defined over the following documented base tables and joins:

The joins link compiled sets to rate schedule revisions, cost plus structures to cost base expenditure types, cost bases to compiled multipliers, and the burden exception rows to their award, project, task, and organization context. The user search term "pa_ind_compiled_sets" corresponds directly to the PA_IND_COMPILED_SETS table referenced in the view's WHERE clause.

Common Use Cases and Queries

Typical usage includes reviewing burden exceptions by award, validating IDC multipliers against compiled sets, and reconciling burdenable cost to burden cost. For example:

  • List burden exceptions for open awards:
    SELECT award_number, project_number, task_number, expenditure_type, burden_cost, burden_cost_limit FROM gms_rxi_burden_exception_v WHERE status_flag = 'Y';
  • Identify exceptions where computed burden exceeds the limit:
    SELECT award_number, burden_cost, burden_cost_limit FROM gms_rxi_burden_exception_v WHERE burden_cost > burden_cost_limit;
  • Summarize burden by organization and expenditure type.

Because the view depends on indirect cost setup, results reflect the compiled multiplier configuration in effect, making it valuable for Grants Accounting burden exception and IDC analysis in both 12.1.1 and 12.2.2.
