Overview

CE_RECONCILIATION_ERRORS is a table in the Cash Management (CE) module of Oracle E-Business Suite, owned by the CE schema. It stores validation and reconciliation errors encountered during processing of bank statement lines held in CE_STATEMENT_LINES. When Cash Management imports a bank statement and attempts to reconcile statement lines against transactions, or validates statement line data during the AutoReconciliation and Manual Reconciliation flows, conditions that prevent successful matching or that fail validation are written to this table as discrete error rows. The table therefore acts as an operational error log for the statement reconciliation process, giving implementers and support personnel a persistent, queryable record of why a given statement line did not reconcile.

Under the heuristic Data Vault classification mined from its foreign key structure, CE_RECONCILIATION_ERRORS is identified as a link entity. This is a modeling suggestion: the table does not function as an independent business hub, but rather associates a statement line with an error condition and the application context that produced it. Its identity and meaning derive from the parent objects it references, consistent with a link-style relationship table.

Key Information Stored

The documented physical schema for this object contains six columns. The most significant are as follows.

• STATEMENT_LINE_ID — Identifies the bank statement line in CE_STATEMENT_LINES to which the error applies. This is the principal foreign key and effectively the business key of the error record, linking an error back to the specific line that failed.
• STATEMENT_HEADER_ID — Identifies the parent statement header, allowing errors to be reported and filtered at statement level without first traversing to the line.
• MESSAGE_NAME — Holds the name or identifier of the validation or reconciliation error message raised against the statement line. This is the diagnostic payload: it distinguishes, for example, a duplicate line from an unmatched transaction or a failed validation rule.
• APPLICATION_SHORT_NAME — Foreign key to FND_APPLICATION, identifying the Oracle application that generated or is responsible for the error record.
• CREATION_DATE — Standard EBS audit column recording when the error row was written.
• CREATED_BY — Standard EBS audit column recording the user or process that created the error row.

No surrogate primary key column is documented in the supplied metadata, and no unique index is identified; the table is presented as a child detail table keyed by its foreign keys rather than by an independent generated identifier. In practice the identifying combination is STATEMENT_LINE_ID together with the specific error condition recorded in MESSAGE_NAME.

Common Use Cases and Queries

The primary use case is diagnostic reporting: determining why statement lines failed to reconcile. A typical query joins the error table to the statement line and header to present readable output.

• Listing all errors for a given statement:
  SELECT r.STATEMENT_LINE_ID, r.STATEMENT_HEADER_ID, r.MESSAGE_NAME, r.APPLICATION_SHORT_NAME, r.CREATION_DATE FROM CE_RECONCILIATION_ERRORS r WHERE r.STATEMENT_HEADER_ID = :header_id;
• Drilling from an unreconciled statement line to its errors:
  SELECT r.MESSAGE_NAME, r.CREATION_DATE FROM CE_RECONCILIATION_ERRORS r WHERE r.STATEMENT_LINE_ID = :line_id;
• Trend and root-cause analysis, grouping by message to identify recurring import or validation defects:
  SELECT MESSAGE_NAME, COUNT(*) FROM CE_RECONCILIATION_ERRORS GROUP BY MESSAGE_NAME ORDER BY 2 DESC;
• Audit reporting on errors raised within a date range, using CREATION_DATE, and attribution reporting using CREATED_BY and APPLICATION_SHORT_NAME.

These patterns support bank reconciliation troubleshooting, statement import validation monitoring, and reconciliation automation health checks.

• FND_APPLICATION — referenced on CE_RECONCILIATION_ERRORS.APPLICATION_SHORT_NAME = FND_APPLICATION.APPLICATION_SHORT_NAME, resolving the application that owns the error.
• CE_STATEMENT_HEADERS — the implied parent of STATEMENT_HEADER_ID, providing statement-level context for error reporting.
• CE_BANK_ACCOUNTS and CE_BANK_BRANCHES — reached by traversing the statement header to identify the bank account affected.
• CE_AUTO_RECONCILIATION and the AutoReconciliation concurrent program — the primary process that populates this table during matching runs.
