Overview

The CSD_REPAIR_TYPES_SAR table is a core data object within the Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) Depot Repair (CSD) module, specifically in versions 12.1.1 and 12.2.2. As documented in the ETRM, its primary function is to save search attributes. This table operates as a supporting entity, storing specific configuration data related to repair transaction billing types that are used to facilitate search and reporting operations within the application. Its existence is critical for enabling efficient data retrieval and filtering based on billing type criteria associated with repair types, thereby supporting the operational and analytical processes of the Depot Repair business flow.

Key Information Stored

The table's structure centers on a primary key and a foreign key relationship. The primary documented column is REPAIR_TXN_BILLING_TYPE_ID, which serves as the table's unique primary key (CSD_REPAIR_TYPES_SAR_PK). This column stores the identifiers for distinct repair transaction billing type records. The other critical column is REPAIR_TYPE_ID, which functions as a foreign key. This column links each search attribute record directly to a master repair type definition stored in the CSD_REPAIR_TYPES_B table, establishing the essential relationship between a billing type search attribute and its parent repair type.

Common Use Cases and Queries

This table is primarily accessed for configuration lookups and reporting. A common use case is retrieving all search attributes associated with a specific repair type for validation or display purposes within a user interface. Another scenario involves generating reports that list available billing type options configured for repairs. A typical query would join this table to its parent to fetch descriptive information.

• Finding search attributes for a specific repair type: SELECT sar.* FROM csd_repair_types_sar sar, csd_repair_types_b b WHERE sar.repair_type_id = b.repair_type_id AND b.name = 'LAPTOP_REPAIR';
• Listing all configured billing type IDs with their associated repair type: SELECT b.name, sar.repair_txn_billing_type_id FROM csd_repair_types_sar sar JOIN csd_repair_types_b b ON sar.repair_type_id = b.repair_type_id ORDER BY b.name;

Related Objects

The table's relationships are defined by its foreign key constraint. The primary and documented dependency for CSD_REPAIR_TYPES_SAR is the CSD_REPAIR_TYPES_B table, which is the master table for repair type definitions.

• CSD_REPAIR_TYPES_B: This is the primary related object. The foreign key CSD_REPAIR_TYPES_SAR.REPAIR_TYPE_ID references the CSD_REPAIR_TYPES_B table. Any query to get meaningful context for the search attributes (like the repair type name) requires a join on this REPAIR_TYPE_ID column.
