Overview

IGS_OR_ORG_NOTE_V is a reporting view within the Oracle E-Business Suite student system (IGS) schema, historically associated with Oracle Student System releases and catalogued as obsolete in EBS 12.1.1 and 12.2.2. The view presents organizational notes — free-text annotations attached to organizational structures such as academic units, departments, or institutions — together with descriptive metadata for each note type. It joins the note transaction table to the note type reference table so that consumers receive both coded values and human-readable descriptions in a single query.

Because Oracle Student System is no longer actively shipped or supported in current EBS releases, IGS_OR_ORG_NOTE_V is documented for reference and migration purposes only. Per the ETRM metadata, the object is marked "Not implemented in this database," meaning it may not exist in a given instance even where the IGS schema is present. Implementers encountering it in legacy 11i or early 12.x environments should treat it strictly as a read-only reporting construct.

Underlying Base Objects

The view text documents two referenced base tables:

• IGS_OR_ORG_NOTES (alias OON) — the driving table holding the actual organizational note records. It supplies the ROWID (surfaced as ROW_ID), organizational structure identifiers, note type code, sequence number, effective dates, note text, and standard WHO audit columns.
• IGS_OR_ORG_NOTE_TYPE (alias ONT) — the note type lookup table, providing the descriptive text via NOTE_TYPE_DESCRIPTION.

The two tables are joined on OON.ORG_NOTE_TYPE = ONT.ORG_NOTES_TYPE. This is an inner join, so any note whose type code lacks a matching lookup row is excluded from the view. There is no outer join or UNION logic; the view is a straightforward denormalization of note data with its type description.

Key Columns

• ROW_ID — the ROWID of the underlying note record, useful for direct-row addressing or debugging.
• ORG_STRUCTURE_ID / ORG_STRUCTURE_TYPE — identify the organizational unit to which the note belongs and the classification of that structure.
• ORG_NOTE_TYPE / NOTE_TYPE_DESCRIPTION — the coded note category and its decoded label from the note type table.
• ORG_NOTE_SEQUENCE — the ordinal position of the note, allowing multiple notes on the same structure to be ordered deterministically. This is the column most commonly referenced by the search term "org_note_sequence."
• START_DATE / END_DATE — the effective dating window for the note; queries should filter on these to obtain currently active notes.
• NOTE_TEXT — the free-text body of the annotation.
• CREATION_DATE, CREATED_BY, LAST_UPDATE_DATE, LAST_UPDATED_BY, LAST_UPDATE_LOGIN — standard audit (WHO) columns supporting traceability and audit reporting.

Common Use Cases and Queries

Typical usage focuses on retrieving active notes for a given organizational structure in sequence order, or auditing note activity by user and date. A representative query is:

SELECT org_structure_id, org_note_type, note_type_description, org_note_sequence, start_date, end_date, note_text FROM igs_or_org_note_v WHERE org_structure_id = :p_org_structure_id AND TRUNC(SYSDATE) BETWEEN start_date AND NVL(end_date, TRUNC(SYSDATE)) ORDER BY org_note_sequence;

For audit purposes, creation and update columns permit queries such as listing all notes created after a given date, or grouping counts by note type description. Because the object is obsolete, any dependency discovered during upgrades should be remediated — either by querying the base tables directly, by recreating equivalent reporting logic in a supported schema, or by archiving the data. Given the metadata records no other referenced base objects, implementations should not assume additional joins or derived columns beyond those listed.
