Overview

The table IGS_AD_EDUGOAL_INT_ALL is a data interface table within the Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) Student System (IGS). Its primary function is to temporarily store detailed information regarding an applicant's educational goals during a data import or integration process. As an interface table, it acts as a staging area where external or legacy system data is loaded and validated before being processed into the core transactional tables of the application. The "ALL" suffix indicates the table is multi-org enabled, storing data for multiple operating units. It is critical to note that the provided ETRM metadata explicitly categorizes the IGS - Student System as "Obsolete," and for this specific database, the table is "Not implemented." This suggests the table is part of a legacy or discontinued module and may not be present or actively used in all EBS 12.1.1 or 12.2.2 implementations.

Key Information Stored

The table's core purpose is to hold interface records for a person's educational goals, which are typically long-term academic or career objectives declared during an application process. While the full column list is not provided in the metadata, the structure revolves around a unique interface record identifier and a link to a parent application record. The primary key column, INTERFACE_EDUGOAL_ID, uniquely identifies each staged educational goal record. A critical foreign key column, INTERFACE_PS_APPL_INST_ID, links each goal to a specific application instance within the corresponding interface table (IGS_AD_PS_APPL_INST_INT). Other columns likely stored would include the educational goal code or description, a status flag for interface processing, error messages for records that fail validation, and the standard WHO columns (CREATED_BY, CREATION_DATE, etc.) for auditing.

Common Use Cases and Queries

The primary use case involves batch data migration for student admissions. For example, when importing applicant data from a third-party system or during an initial implementation, educational goal data would be inserted into IGS_AD_EDUGOAL_INT_ALL. A concurrent program would then validate and transfer this data into the production tables. Common queries would focus on monitoring the interface process. A developer might write a query to find all educational goal records for a specific application instance that are pending processing or have errors, using the foreign key to join to the application interface table. Sample SQL to check for unprocessed records might be: SELECT COUNT(*), STATUS FROM IGS_AD_EDUGOAL_INT_ALL WHERE INTERFACE_PS_APPL_INST_ID = &APPL_INST_ID GROUP BY STATUS;. Reporting use cases are limited to interface monitoring and troubleshooting, not operational reporting, as this is a transient data store.

Related Objects

• Primary Key Constraint: IGS_AD_EDUGOAL_INT_ALL_PK on column INTERFACE_EDUGOAL_ID. This enforces uniqueness for each interface record.
• Foreign Key Relationship (This table references): The table has a documented foreign key to IGS_AD_PS_APPL_INST_INT. The join is made on the column IGS_AD_EDUGOAL_INT_ALL.INTERFACE_PS_APPL_INST_ID. This establishes that every educational goal interface record must be associated with a valid applicant institution record in the parent interface table.
