Overview

The JA_AU_SOURCE_ADDITIONS_V view is an Asia/Pacific Localizations (JA) database object owned by the APPS schema in Oracle E-Business Suite 12.1.1 and 12.2.2. It is documented in ETRM as a retrofitted view, meaning its definition was aligned with the Oracle Fusion-style data model during the upgrade and retrofit process. Its functional purpose is to expose the set of fixed assets that also appear as balance-change source records in the Australian localization tables, joining asset-master detail from FA_ADDITIONS to the balance-change source rows in JA_AU_BAL_CHG_SOURCE.

In practice, the view acts as a reporting and integration surface for Australian asset additions. It allows the Australian localizations and any downstream extensions to retrieve the asset identity, descriptive attributes, and retirement information for assets that have balance-change source activity. Because the view is DISTINCT, it returns a de-duplicated list of asset/source combinations, which is suitable for presentation layers and for driving selection lists in localization reports rather than for transactional processing.

Underlying Base Objects

The view is defined over two referenced base objects, both of which are synonyms in the APPS schema:

• JA_AU_BAL_CHG_SOURCE — the Australian balance-change source table. It supplies ASSET_ID and DATE_RETIRED to the view and is the driving object that determines which assets are eligible to appear.
• FA_ADDITIONS — the Oracle Assets additions entity. It supplies all remaining descriptive and classification columns: asset number, tag number, description, category, attribute category, asset key CCID, asset type, and manufacturer/model/serial information.

The two objects are combined with an inner join on ASSET_ID (S.ASSET_ID = A.ASSET_ID), so an asset appears in the view only when it has a matching row in both the balance-change source and the additions table. The documented metadata lists both base objects as synonyms, and the schema owner is APPS in the 12.2.2 documented view metadata, consistent with 12.1.1 deployments.

Key Columns

• ASSET_ID — Primary asset identifier, the join key between the two base objects.
• DATE_RETIRED — Retirement date sourced from JA_AU_BAL_CHG_SOURCE. This is the column most frequently referenced by users searching on "date_retired" and is central to identifying when an asset was disposed of or retired for Australian reporting purposes.
• ASSET_NUMBER and TAG_NUMBER — User-facing asset identifiers used in listings and cross-references.
• DESCRIPTION — Free-text asset description from FA_ADDITIONS.
• ASSET_CATEGORY_ID and ATTRIBUTE_CATEGORY_CODE — Asset category and descriptive flexfield context, enabling category-level filtering and attribute reporting.
• ASSET_KEY_CCID — The accounting flexfield combination identifier for the asset key account.
• ASSET_TYPE — Classification of the asset (for example, capitalized or expensed) per Oracle Assets conventions.
• MANUFACTURER_NAME, MODEL_NUMBER, and SERIAL_NUMBER — Physical identification attributes for the asset.

Common Use Cases and Queries

The view is typically queried to reconcile Australian additions against the asset register, to list assets with retirement dates, and to feed localization extracts. A representative query filtering on the retirement date is:

• SELECT asset_id, date_retired, asset_number, tag_number, description FROM ja_au_source_additions_v WHERE date_retired IS NOT NULL ORDER BY date_retired DESC;
• SELECT asset_number, tag_number, asset_type, manufacturer_name, serial_number FROM ja_au_source_additions_v WHERE asset_category_id = :category_id;
• SELECT asset_id, asset_key_ccid, attribute_category_code, date_retired FROM ja_au_source_additions_v WHERE asset_id = :asset_id;

Because the view is DISTINCT and read-only, it supports query and reporting workloads only; all maintenance must be performed against the underlying JA_AU_BAL_CHG_SOURCE and FA_ADDITIONS objects.
