Overview

PA_FCST_PROJ_ERR_V is a database view owned by the APPS schema in Oracle E-Business Suite, defined within the Projects (PA) product family. It exposes project forecasting error information, consolidating error and rejection conditions that arise during the generation and maintenance of forecasting budgets. The view presents, for a single current project context, the assignment, resource, period, and human-readable error message associated with forecast-planning failures.

The view derives its project scope from a scalar subquery calling PA_FCST_GLOBAL.GETPROJECTID, meaning it is designed to be invoked within the forecasting workflow where the application has already established the working project in the PA_FCST_GLOBAL package state. This makes it a reporting and diagnostics object rather than a general-purpose cross-project query source. It returns error strings resolved through FND_MESSAGE.GET_STRING, so the values are presented in the session's language rather than as raw message codes.

In Oracle EBS 12.1.1 and 12.2.2, the view is reported as VALID, and its structure and underlying references are consistent across both releases within the documented ETRM metadata.

Underlying Base Objects

The view is defined over the following documented base objects:

  • PA_RESOURCE_ASSIGNMENTS — the driving table, supplying assignment-level planning error codes and the budget version linkage.
  • PA_PROJECT_ASSIGNMENTS — provides the project identifier, assignment name, and resource identifier; joined to resource assignments on PROJECT_ASSIGNMENT_ID using an outer join in the first branch.
  • PA_RESOURCES — supplies the resource name, joined on RESOURCE_ID with an outer join via NVL(PRJ_ASGN.RESOURCE_ID, 0).
  • PA_BUDGET_VERSIONS — restricts the result set to versions where BUDGET_TYPE_CODE = 'FORECASTING_BUDGET_TYPE'.
  • PA_BUDGET_LINES — supplies the period name, period start date, and, in the second UNION ALL branch, the revenue rejection code.
  • PA_FCST_GLOBAL (package) — provides GETPROJECTID, the filter that limits output to the current forecasting project.
  • FND_MESSAGE (package) — resolves error and rejection codes into translatable message text.
  • DUAL — used in the inline filter subquery.

The view text is a UNION ALL of two branches: the first reports resource assignment planning errors (PLAN_ERROR_CODE, excluding the code 'PA_FCST_NO_DISP_ERR'), and the second reports budget-line revenue rejection errors (REVENUE_REJECTION_CODE).

Key Columns

  • PROJECT_ID — identifier of the forecast project in context.
  • ASSIGNMENT_NAME — the project assignment name against which the error was raised.
  • RESOURCE_NAME — the resource name; blank when no resource is associated.
  • PERIOD_NAME — the budget period in which the error condition applies.
  • PERIOD_START_DATE — the start date of that period.
  • ERROR_MESSAGE — the translated message text resolved from the plan error or revenue rejection code.

Common Use Cases and Queries

The view is typically consumed within the forecast generation flow, or from a concurrent/diagnostic program that has first populated PA_FCST_GLOBAL with the target project. Because the result set is filtered by PA_FCST_GLOBAL.GETPROJECTID, callers must set that context before querying.

A representative query is:

  • SELECT project_id, assignment_name, resource_name, period_name, period_start_date, error_message FROM pa_fcst_proj_err_v ORDER BY period_start_date, assignment_name;

Typical scenarios include diagnosing why a forecast failed to generate or was rejected for particular assignments and periods, presenting end-user error explanations in a forms or OAF page, and supporting reconciliation of forecasting budget data prior to submission. Because message text is fetched through FND_MESSAGE, results respect the runtime language setting, making the view suitable for user-facing exception reporting rather than only technical logs.
