Overview

The table IGS_AD_AUSE_ED_AS_TY is a core reference table within the Oracle E-Business Suite Student System (IGS) module, specifically supporting admissions functionality. Its primary role is to define and maintain user-defined assessment types for secondary education within the Australian educational context. This table acts as a master list of valid assessment types, such as final exams, coursework, or practical assessments, which are used to categorize and evaluate an applicant's secondary education records. By centralizing these definitions, the table ensures data integrity and consistency across the admissions process, enabling accurate evaluation of academic backgrounds against institutional requirements in releases 12.1.1 and 12.2.2.

Key Information Stored

While the specific column list is not detailed in the provided metadata, the structure is defined by its primary and foreign key relationships. The central column is AUS_SCNDRY_EDU_ASS_TYPE, which serves as the primary key. This column stores the unique code or identifier for each user-defined secondary education assessment type. The table's description confirms it holds descriptive information for these types, implying the likely presence of columns for a description, effective dates, and potentially an inactive indicator. The foreign key column TAC_AUS_SCNDRY_EDU_ASS_TYPE links to tertiary admissions center data, suggesting the table may also store mapping information to external standardized codes.
