Overview
PA_PAXCCARS_XMLP_PKG is a PL/SQL package owned by the APPS schema in Oracle E-Business Suite that supports the concurrent program PAXCCARS, a Project Accounting reporting process whose name follows the standard XML Publisher (XMLP) naming convention. The "_XMLP_PKG" suffix indicates that the package is a report logic container generated for an Oracle Reports or XML Publisher-based concurrent program. In Oracle EBS 12.1.1 and 12.2.2, packages of this type encapsulate the procedural code that fires before and after report execution, defines bind and lexical parameters, and supplies column-level data constants used by the report template. The package holds a status of VALID in the documented ETRM metadata and is classified under an API classification of OTHER, meaning it is not a public or supported integration API but rather an internal report-support object. Its business purpose is to provide the run-time PL/SQL scaffolding for the PAXCCARS project accounting report, ensuring that session context, company information, and report-level control variables are established correctly before the report engine renders output.
Key Procedures and Functions
The ETRM metadata documents seven procedures and functions within the package. Their purposes are consistent with standard Oracle EBS report package design:
- BEFOREREPORT — The pre-report trigger procedure, executed at report start-up. It initializes report session state and prepares the environment prior to data retrieval.
- AFTERREPORT — The post-report trigger procedure, executed at report completion. It performs cleanup and finalization logic after output generation.
- GET_COVER_PAGE_VALUES — Populates the cover page data elements of the report, typically supplying report title, run date, and parameter-based descriptive values.
- GET_COMPANY_NAME — Retrieves the legal entity or company name associated with the reporting context, used for branding and header information.
- C_COMPANY_NAME_HEADER_P — A packaged constant or function returning the company name header label used to drive the report header column.
- C_NO_DATA_FOUND_P — A constant controlling the "no data found" message logic displayed when the report query returns no rows.
- C_DUMMY_DATA_P — A constant used to suppress or supply dummy data for report layout and formatting purposes.
No parameter lists are published in the metadata, and none should be assumed; these are internal report components.
Tables Accessed
The ETRM excerpt does not enumerate specific base tables referenced through APPS synonyms for this package. Its documented dependency graph shows references only to SYS.STANDARD and the package references itself, which is typical of report-generated packages whose SQL is embedded in the data model rather than declared as direct table dependencies in the metadata layer. Consequently, the business tables read by PAXCCARS would be resolved at report execution time rather than being individually catalogued here.
Usage Notes
This package is not intended for direct invocation by custom code. It is referenced only by itself in the dependency listing and is invoked implicitly by the Oracle EBS concurrent manager when the PAXCCARS concurrent program is submitted. The BEFOREREPORT and AFTERREPORT entry points are called automatically by the report engine, while the GET_ functions and C_ constants are consumed by the report definition and XML template. The package is referenced by zero other packages. Developers should treat PA_PAXCCARS_XMLP_PKG as an internal, non-API object: it may be regenerated when the report definition is recompiled, so direct extensions or overrides are not supported. Any customization should target the underlying report or concurrent program rather than this package.
