The JL_BR_AR_CUST_INT_ERR table is a critical component within Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) versions 12.1.1 and 12.2.2, specifically designed to support localization requirements for Brazil. This table serves as an error logging mechanism for customer interface processes in the Accounts Receivable (AR) module, particularly for transactions that fail validation during integration with Brazilian tax and regulatory compliance rules. Below is a detailed analysis of its structure, purpose, and operational context.

Purpose and Functional Context

In Oracle EBS, the JL_BR_AR_CUST_INT_ERR table captures errors generated during the validation of customer data against Brazilian legal and fiscal regulations. It is part of the "JL" (Latin America) localization layer, with "BR" denoting Brazil-specific functionality. The table logs issues arising from:
  • Tax registration number (CNPJ/CPF) validation failures.
  • Incomplete or mismatched address data per Brazilian postal standards.
  • Non-compliance with fiscal document formatting rules (e.g., NF-e, NFC-e).
  • Integration failures with government systems like SEFAZ (Secretaria da Fazenda).

Table Structure and Key Columns

The table typically includes the following columns (exact structure may vary by EBS version):
Column Name Data Type Description
ERROR_ID NUMBER Primary key, unique identifier for each error record.
CUSTOMER_ID NUMBER References RA_CUSTOMERS.CUSTOMER_ID for the affected customer.
ERROR_CODE VARCHAR2 Standardized error code (e.g., "BR_TAX_001" for invalid CNPJ).
ERROR_MESSAGE VARCHAR2 Detailed error description in Portuguese or English.
CREATION_DATE DATE Timestamp when the error was logged.
PROCESS_NAME VARCHAR2 Name of the interface process that triggered the error (e.g., "Customer Import").

Integration with EBS Workflows

The table interacts with key EBS components:
  1. Customer Interface: Errors from TCA (Trading Community Architecture) or AR customer APIs are logged here during data loads.
  2. Tax Engine: Brazilian tax validation routines (JL_BR_AP_TAX_PKG) may write to this table when fiscal document rules are violated.
  3. Reporting: Custom Brazil-localized reports query this table to generate compliance exception lists.

Technical Considerations

  • Purge Mechanism: Requires periodic archiving to prevent performance degradation; often tied to FND_CONCURRENT_REQUESTS.
  • Indexing: Typically indexed on ERROR_ID, CUSTOMER_ID, and CREATION_DATE for query optimization.
  • Patch Impact: Brazil-specific patches (e.g., tax law updates) may modify error codes or add columns.

Example Use Case

A Brazilian subsidiary imports customers via Oracle's Customer Interface. The process fails for 10 records due to invalid municipality codes. The errors are logged in JL_BR_AR_CUST_INT_ERR with:
  • ERROR_CODE = 'BR_ADDR_004'
  • ERROR_MESSAGE = 'Município não encontrado no IBGE para o CEP fornecido'
Administrators then correct the data using the error details and reprocess the records.

Version-Specific Notes

  • 12.1.1: Requires manual cleanup scripts; error messages may lack localization.
  • 12.2.2: Enhanced with REST API support for error retrieval and automated retry workflows.
