Search Results app_result_id

Overview

The IGS_UC_APP_RESULTS table is a core data structure within the Oracle E-Business Suite Student System (IGS) for versions 12.1.1 and 12.2.2. It serves as the primary repository for storing applicant examination results, specifically in the context of the Universities and Colleges Admissions Service (UCAS) integration. Its fundamental role is to hold detailed academic qualification data for applicants, enabling the institution to assess eligibility and make informed admissions decisions. A critical aspect of its function is to synchronize data with the UCAS system view named 'ivStarPQR', ensuring a consistent and accurate exchange of applicant result information between the institution's EBS instance and the central UCAS service.

Key Information Stored

The table's primary purpose is to record individual examination subject results linked to a specific applicant. While the full column list is not detailed in the provided metadata, the documented foreign key relationships and primary key reveal its essential structure. The central column is APP_RESULT_ID, which serves as the unique primary key for each result record. The table links to an applicant via the APP_ID column, which references the IGS_UC_APPLICANTS table. Each result is further associated with a specific examination subject through the SUBJECT_ID column, which references the IGS_UC_COM_EBL_SUBJ table. Typically, such a table would also store columns for the result grade, examination date, awarding body, and potentially a timestamp for UCAS synchronization.

Common Use Cases and Queries

This table is central to admissions processing and reporting. Common use cases include generating summary reports of applicant qualifications for an admissions cycle, validating if applicants meet specific course entry requirements, and auditing data sent to or received from UCAS. A typical query would join this table to applicant and subject master data to create a comprehensive view of an applicant's academic profile. For example, to list all results for a specific applicant, one might use a SQL pattern such as:

• SELECT apr.*, app.APPLICANT_NUMBER, subj.SUBJECT_CODE FROM IGS_UC_APP_RESULTS apr JOIN IGS_UC_APPLICANTS app ON apr.APP_ID = app.APP_ID JOIN IGS_UC_COM_EBL_SUBJ subj ON apr.SUBJECT_ID = subj.SUBJECT_ID WHERE app.APPLICANT_NUMBER = '&APPLICANT_NUM';

Another critical use case involves monitoring the synchronization status with the UCAS 'ivStarPQR' view, which may involve checking timestamps or flag columns not explicitly listed in the brief metadata.

Related Objects

The IGS_UC_APP_RESULTS table is part of a tightly integrated schema for UCAS applicant management. Its documented relationships, as per the provided metadata, are as follows:

• Primary Key Constraint: IGS_UC_APP_RESULTS_PK on column APP_RESULT_ID.
• Foreign Key Reference to IGS_UC_APPLICANTS: The APP_ID column in IGS_UC_APP_RESULTS references the primary key of the IGS_UC_APPLICANTS table. This links every examination result record to a specific applicant.
• Foreign Key Reference to IGS_UC_COM_EBL_SUBJ: The SUBJECT_ID column in IGS_UC_APP_RESULTS references the primary key of the IGS_UC_COM_EBL_SUBJ table. This links each result to a standardized subject code or description, likely representing an "Entry in the List of Subjects" (EBL).

This table is also the likely source for any internal views or APIs that expose applicant result data to other modules within the Student System, such as admissions decision engines or offer letter generation processes.
