Overview

The FND_SVC_COMP_TYPES_B table is a core reference table within the Application Object Library (FND) module of Oracle E-Business Suite. It serves as the master repository for defining distinct service component types, which are logical categories for classifying various service components within the EBS architecture. This table provides the foundational type definitions that are referenced by other service-related entities, enabling a structured and consistent approach to managing service components and their associated metadata across the application.

Key Information Stored

The primary data stored in this table is the unique identifier for a service component type. Based on the provided metadata, the key column is:

  • COMPONENT_TYPE: This column serves as the primary key (PK) for the table. It stores the unique, non-translatable code that identifies a specific category or type of service component. Examples could include types for concurrent managers, workflow engines, or other service-oriented application modules.

While the base table (FND_SVC_COMP_TYPES_B) holds the unique code, its corresponding translation table, FND_SVC_COMP_TYPES_TL, is designed to store the user-friendly name and description for each COMPONENT_TYPE in multiple languages.

Common Use Cases and Queries

This table is primarily used for setup, validation, and reporting on service component classifications. A common administrative use case is querying all defined component types to understand the service landscape or to validate entries before creating new service component definitions. Developers may reference this table when writing code that interacts with specific service types. A fundamental query to retrieve all component types would be:

SELECT component_type
FROM apps.fnd_svc_comp_types_b
ORDER BY component_type;

For a more comprehensive report including translated names, a join with the translation table is necessary:

SELECT b.component_type, tl.name, tl.description
FROM apps.fnd_svc_comp_types_b b,
     apps.fnd_svc_comp_types_tl tl
WHERE b.component_type = tl.component_type
AND tl.language = USERENV('LANG');

Related Objects

The FND_SVC_COMP_TYPES_B table is central to the service component data model, as evidenced by its foreign key relationships. The documented relationships are:

  • FND_SVC_COMPONENTS: The COMPONENT_TYPE column in FND_SVC_COMPONENTS references this table. This links individual service component instances (e.g., a specific concurrent manager) to their general type.
  • FND_SVC_COMP_PARAMS_B: The COMPONENT_TYPE column in FND_SVC_COMP_PARAMS_B references this table. This relationship allows for the definition of configurable parameters that are applicable to all components of a given type.
  • FND_SVC_COMP_TYPES_TL: The COMPONENT_TYPE column in the translation table references this table's primary key, providing multilingual support for the type names and descriptions.

These relationships establish FND_SVC_COMP_TYPES_B as a key parent table for service configuration and internationalization within Oracle EBS.
