Overview

AP_SUPPLIER_SITES_INT (also documented as AP_SUPPLIER_SITES_INT_ALL) is an Oracle Payables interface table that holds supplier site information loaded by users for import. Its columns map directly to corresponding columns in PO_VENDOR_SITES_ALL, and the Oracle Payables application consumes this information during supplier import processing to create or update supplier sites in the base supplier tables. The table resides in the AP schema and is part of the AP - Payables product module.

In Oracle EBS 12.1.1 and 12.2.2, this table functions as a staging area: records are inserted, validated, and then processed by the Supplier Open Interface concurrent program, which applies the records to the production supplier site tables and writes back a processing status. With 185 documented columns in ETRM 12.2.2, the table closely mirrors the structure of the destination supplier site entity.

From a Data Vault modeling perspective, the mined foreign key structure suggests a satellite-leaning classification. The table references parent interface entities rather than acting as an independent hub, which is consistent with its role as a dependent interface staging object.

Key Information Stored

The table carries both surrogate and business identifiers, along with a wide range of site attributes:

Business-key candidates center on the combination of supplier and site code; the STATUS column distinguishes successfully imported rows from those requiring correction.

Common Use Cases and Queries

The primary use case is bulk supplier site migration or creation. ETL routines populate the table, then the Supplier Open Interface program is submitted to process pending rows. Typical operational queries include:

  • Monitoring pending versus rejected rows: SELECT * FROM ap.ap_supplier_sites_int WHERE status = 'REJECTED';
  • Correlating sites to their parent supplier: joining on VENDOR_INTERFACE_ID to AP_SUPPLIERS_INT.
  • Auditing import loads by IMPORT_REQUEST_ID to trace which concurrent request created which site records.
  • Reviewing reject reasons via REJECT_CODE to guide correction of address, currency, or payment data before resubmission.

Reporting scenarios include reconciliation of imported sites against PO_VENDOR_SITES_ALL, validation of operating unit assignment via ORG_ID, and verification of payment fields before records reach production.
