Overview

FARX_C_MT is an Oracle E-Business Suite PL/SQL package owned by the APPS schema and classified under the ETRM (E-Business Suite Technical Reference Manual) as an "OTHER" API type. Its name follows the Oracle Assets (FA) naming convention, with the "RX" infix and "MT" suffix indicating a maintenance-related utility package. The package is declared with AUTHID CURRENT_USER and carries a header revision of 120.2 dated 2009, placing it within the Oracle Assets module for both EBS 12.1.1 and 12.2.2 releases.

The business function of FARX_C_MT centers on asset maintenance event processing. It provides the procedural interface that moves maintenance event data into the Oracle Assets maintenance repository, allowing maintenance history to be associated with capitalized assets. This supports depreciation and cost-tracking processes in Oracle Assets by capturing maintenance repairs, warranty information, and event-driven changes to asset records.

Key Procedures and Functions

The ETRM metadata documents three procedures or functions in FARX_C_MT:

  • INSERT_TO_ITF — Inserts maintenance records into the FA_MAINT_REP_ITF interface table. This is the low-level staging routine that accepts the book, event name, maintenance date range, asset number range, DPIS (date placed in service) range, category, and request ID, then writes qualifying records to the interface for subsequent processing. The procedure returns retcode and errbuf out parameters for concurrent program error handling.
  • ASSET_MAINTENANCE — The primary driver procedure. It accepts the same core inputs as INSERT_TO_ITF (book, event name, date ranges, asset number ranges, DPIS ranges, and category) plus an extended set of additional argument placeholders. This procedure is structured as a concurrent program entry point, evidenced by the errbuf and retcode out parameters listed before the input arguments. It orchestrates the maintenance extraction and interface load logic.
  • DO_INSERT — Performs the actual insert operation against the interface and related tables after validation, invoked internally by the higher-level procedures.

Parameter lists are not enumerated here beyond their documented purposes; readers should consult the package specification for exact signatures.

Tables Accessed

The package references the following tables through APPS synonyms:

  • FA_MAINT_REP_ITF — The maintenance report interface table where incoming maintenance events are staged.
  • FA_MAINT_EVENTS — The target maintenance event repository that records historical maintenance on assets.
  • FA_ADDITIONS — The asset master table, used to validate asset numbers and ranges.
  • FA_BOOKS — Provides the book and depreciation context that qualifies which assets are processed.
  • FA_DISTRIBUTION_HISTORY — Supplies distribution and assignment history for the assets being processed.
  • FA_WARRANTIES and FA_ADD_WARRANTIES — Store warranty coverage associated with assets and additions.
  • FA_SYSTEM_CONTROLS — Holds system-level control settings used by Oracle Assets.
  • FND_CONCURRENT_REQUESTS — Tracks the concurrent request executing the package, linking output to the concurrent manager.

Usage Notes

FARX_C_MT is typically invoked by Oracle Assets concurrent programs rather than directly by end users. The ASSET_MAINTENANCE procedure signature, with errbuf and retcode parameters preceding standard arguments, is a classic concurrent program entry point registered in FND_CONCURRENT_PROGRAMS. Calls to INSERT_TO_ITF and DO_INSERT occur internally as part of that execution flow.

The package is referenced by one other package, indicating it participates in an interdependent call chain within Oracle Assets maintenance processing. Customizations that extend the Asset Maintenance concurrent program should respect the interface table contract and the expected error-return parameters. Because the package executes under AUTHID CURRENT_USER, direct invocation requires appropriate grants on the underlying APPS objects. The "minecraft for windows free hack" search term that surfaced this object is unrelated to the package's documented function.
