Overview

The IGS_AD_SBMINTAK_TRGT table is a core data structure within the Oracle E-Business Suite Student System (IGS). It is designed to manage and store quantitative intake targets associated with specific submission periods. This table plays a critical role in the admissions and planning modules by enabling institutions to define and track enrollment goals for various intake categories, such as programs or student types, against formal reporting cycles. Its existence supports institutional compliance, strategic planning, and capacity management by providing a centralized repository for target data linked to official submission controls.

Key Information Stored

The table's primary key uniquely identifies each target record through a combination of submission period and target type. The key columns, as defined by the primary key constraint IGS_AD_SBMINTAK_TRGT_PK, are SUBMISSION_YR, SUBMISSION_NUMBER, and INTAKE_TARGET_TYPE. While the provided metadata does not list all columns, the structure indicates it holds foreign key relationships to submission control and target type definition tables. The core data stored includes the linkage between a specific government or institutional submission period (via SUBMISSION_YR and SUBMISSION_NUMBER) and a defined category of intake target (via INTAKE_TARGET_TYPE), along with the associated target values or related attributes not explicitly listed in the excerpt.

Common Use Cases and Queries

This table is central to reporting and analysis on enrollment targets. Common operational scenarios include generating reports to compare actual intake against planned targets for a submission year, and loading or maintaining target data during planning cycles. A typical query would join this table to its related control and type tables to produce a readable report. For example:

  • Retrieving all targets for a specific submission: SELECT * FROM igs.igs_ad_sbmintak_trgt WHERE submission_yr = '2024' AND submission_number = '1';
  • Joining to decode target type descriptions: SELECT trgt.*, typ.meaning FROM igs.igs_ad_sbmintak_trgt trgt JOIN igs.igs_ad_intak_trg_typ typ ON trgt.intake_target_type = typ.intake_target_type WHERE submission_yr = '2024';

Related Objects

The table maintains defined foreign key relationships with two primary control tables, ensuring data integrity and enabling comprehensive data retrieval.

  • IGS_ST_GVT_SPSHT_CTL_ALL: This table controls the submission period. IGS_AD_SBMINTAK_TRGT is linked to it via the columns SUBMISSION_YR and SUBMISSION_NUMBER. This relationship ensures every intake target is associated with a valid, governing submission period.
  • IGS_AD_INTAK_TRG_TYP: This table defines the valid types or categories of intake targets (e.g., "Undergraduate Domestic," "Postgraduate Research"). IGS_AD_SBMINTAK_TRGT references it via the INTAKE_TARGET_TYPE column, ensuring targets are assigned to a predefined classification.
