Overview

The CZ_FUNC_COMP_REFS table is a data object within the Oracle E-Business Suite Configurator (CZ) module. Based on the provided ETRM documentation, its primary stated purpose is "NOT USED." This designation indicates that while the table exists structurally within the CZ schema, it is not actively populated or leveraged by the standard application logic in the documented releases (12.1.1 and 12.2.2). Its intended role, inferred from its name and structure, was likely to manage references or associations between functional component specifications (FUNC_COMP_ID) and specific nodes within a product configuration model (PS_NODE_ID). However, this functionality appears to have been deprecated or superseded by other application mechanisms.

Key Information Stored

The table's structure is designed to store associative data linking two key entities. The FUNC_COMP_ID column holds identifiers that reference a functional component specification, as defined in the CZ_FUNC_COMP_SPECS table. The PS_NODE_ID column holds identifiers that reference specific nodes within a configurator model, as defined in the CZ_PS_NODES table. Together, these columns form the table's primary key (CZ_FUNC_COMP_REFS_PK), which would have enforced uniqueness for each component-to-node relationship. No other columns are detailed in the provided metadata.

Common Use Cases and Queries

Given the explicit "NOT USED" status in the official documentation, there are no standard application use cases, business processes, or reporting requirements that interact with this table in Oracle EBS 12.1.1 or 12.2.2. Consequently, no standard queries or SQL patterns are provided or recommended. Technical consultants and DBAs should be aware of its existence primarily for schema reference and to understand that any data found within it is not part of the supported application flow. Investigation of this table would typically only occur during deep technical diagnostics or data audits to confirm its unused state.

Related Objects

The table maintains defined foreign key relationships with two core Configurator tables, as per the provided metadata:

  • CZ_FUNC_COMP_SPECS: The CZ_FUNC_COMP_REFS.FUNC_COMP_ID column references the primary key of this table. CZ_FUNC_COMP_SPECS defines the specifications for functional components used in configuration models.
  • CZ_PS_NODES: The CZ_FUNC_COMP_REFS.PS_NODE_ID column references the primary key of this table. CZ_PS_NODES stores the individual nodes that make up a product configuration model structure.

These relationships solidify the table's intended purpose as a junction table between component definitions and model nodes, despite its current unused status.
