Overview

The table IGS_AD_OS_SEC_ED_SUB is a core data object within the Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) Student System (IGS) module, specifically supporting the admissions process. It functions as a child table, storing detailed subject-level information for an applicant's secondary (or overseas secondary) education records. Its primary role is to provide the granular academic data required for the comprehensive assessment of an admissions application, enabling institutions to evaluate specific subject proficiencies and performance as part of their entry criteria.

Key Information Stored

The table is uniquely identified by a composite primary key that links each subject record to its parent education record. The key columns are PERSON_ID, OSE_SEQUENCE_NUMBER (linking to the parent overseas secondary education record), and a SEQUENCE_NUMBER to uniquely identify multiple subjects for the same education entry. While the specific descriptive columns (e.g., subject name, grade, score, year studied) are not detailed in the provided metadata, the table's purpose indicates it would store attributes such as subject code or name, final result or mark, competency level, and potentially the academic year the subject was completed. This structure allows for a detailed academic transcript to be modeled for each secondary education qualification.

Common Use Cases and Queries

This table is central to admissions reporting and decision-making workflows. Common use cases include generating detailed applicant academic transcripts for review by admissions committees, calculating aggregate scores or GPAs from specific subject results, and verifying that applicants meet prerequisite subject requirements for specific courses or programs. A typical query would join this table to its parent to retrieve a full educational history for an applicant.

• Sample Query Pattern: Retrieving all secondary education subjects for a specific applicant's qualification.
  SELECT sub.* FROM igs.igs_ad_os_sec_ed_sub sub, igs.igs_ad_os_sec_edu edu WHERE sub.person_id = :p_person_id AND sub.person_id = edu.person_id AND sub.ose_sequence_number = edu.ose_sequence_number ORDER BY sub.sequence_number;
• Reporting Use Case: A report to list all applicants who achieved a specified grade in a critical prerequisite subject (e.g., Mathematics) as part of their overseas secondary education.

Related Objects

The table maintains a strict hierarchical relationship within the admissions data model. It is a direct child of the IGS_AD_OS_SEC_EDU table, which stores the header record for an applicant's overseas secondary education qualification. The relationship is enforced via a foreign key constraint where the columns PERSON_ID and OSE_SEQUENCE_NUMBER in IGS_AD_OS_SEC_ED_SUB reference the same columns in the parent table IGS_AD_OS_SEC_EDU. This ensures that every subject detail record is associated with a valid parent education entry. Other application components, such as admissions assessment forms, reports, and interfaces, will likely depend on or reference this table to access granular subject data.
