Overview

The PV_GE_HISTORY_LOG_B table is a core data object within the Oracle E-Business Suite Partner Management (PV) module. It functions as a centralized audit and transaction history log, capturing a chronological record of significant changes or events for specific entities managed within the partner ecosystem. Its primary role is to provide a persistent, queryable audit trail, enabling users to track the evolution of partner-related records, support compliance requirements, and facilitate troubleshooting by revealing the sequence of actions performed on key business objects.

Key Information Stored

While the exact column list is not detailed in the provided metadata, the table's structure is defined by its primary and foreign key relationships. The central column is ENTITY_HISTORY_LOG_ID, which serves as the unique primary key identifier for each log entry. Another critical column is HISTORY_FOR_ENTITY_ID, which stores the identifier of the specific entity (such as a partner program enrollment request or a partner program itself) for which the history is being recorded. Typical columns in such a history table would also include transaction timestamps, the user or process responsible for the change, the type of action performed (e.g., CREATE, UPDATE, APPROVE), and a reference to the entity's type or table of origin.

Common Use Cases and Queries

The primary use case is auditing and reporting on the lifecycle of partner-related transactions. Support personnel may query this table to understand the status history of a partner program enrollment request. A common query pattern involves joining to related tables to fetch descriptive information. For example, to see the history for a specific partner program enrollment request, one might use:

  • SELECT log.* FROM pv_ge_history_log_b log WHERE log.history_for_entity_id = <request_id> ORDER BY log.creation_date;

For a broader audit report showing history linked to program names, a join to PV_PARTNER_PROGRAM_B would be necessary. Developers may also interact with this table via standard Oracle APIs or custom PL/SQL procedures that write log entries whenever a monitored business event occurs.

Related Objects

Based on the documented foreign key relationships, PV_GE_HISTORY_LOG_B is integrally connected to several key tables in the Partner Management schema:

  • PV_PG_ENRL_REQUESTS: History log entries can be created for individual Partner Program Enrollment Requests. The join is made via PV_GE_HISTORY_LOG_B.HISTORY_FOR_ENTITY_ID = PV_PG_ENRL_REQUESTS.<key column>.
  • PV_PARTNER_PROGRAM_B: History log entries can be created for Partner Program definitions. The join is made via PV_GE_HISTORY_LOG_B.HISTORY_FOR_ENTITY_ID = PV_PARTNER_PROGRAM_B.<key column>.
  • PV_GE_HISTORY_LOG_PARAMS: This table holds additional parameter details for a history log entry, childed to PV_GE_HISTORY_LOG_B via PV_GE_HISTORY_LOG_PARAMS.ENTITY_HISTORY_LOG_ID.
  • PV_GE_HISTORY_LOG_TL: This is the Translation table for the base log, storing language-specific text for the history entry, also childed via PV_GE_HISTORY_LOG_TL.ENTITY_HISTORY_LOG_ID.
